Kikorangi - Blue

We are learning about writing our own problems about our world.

We wrote problems about LOL dolls, as this interested a lot of our group.

Caprice's question she made up:

" If there are 7 layers in each LOL doll how many layers for 5 LOL dolls?

So it is 5 groups of 7 which is 35.

or we can say

7 groups of 5 which is 35


Today we noticed that it is easier to count in 5s so we can reverse our problem and still get the same answer.

Estimating the distance of our Giant Walk:

Today our school is walking to the local playground.  We are estimating how to measure the distance. 

We learnt that 1000 of these rulers touching each other will make 1 kilometre. 

Our estimates are: 

106 m to 2 km - who will be closest??

Kikorangi: Colour Run Questions

Today we were inspired to create our own problems about the colour run:

Renee's Problem:

If 500 people were at the run and 134 people received spot prizes,  How many people missed out?

Renee split the 134 into 100 and 34.

Then went 500 - 100 = 400

400 - 34 = ?  400 - 30 = 370

370 - 4 = 366.

Renee could split the numbers and work out the answer was 366 people missed out.  In our group two people won spot prizes.
