Magnetic Letters

During Reading the groups rotate around different literacy activities when they are not reading with Miss Brown. One of the activities is to create words and sentences out of the magnetic letters.

Here is what Ollie, Harlyn and Jarrad did during their time at this rotation on Tuesday.

Problem Solving

On Friday we did a range of problem solving activities for Maths.

One of our activities involved estimating. We found out this means to think hard and make a sensible guess.

Our problem was: How many cubes does it take to make a 1 metre tall tower?

We estimated:

Marcus - 15 Kathryn - 60

Taine - 30 Matthew - 60

Haylee - 50 Liam - 50

Jarrad - 10

Then we measured and found the actual answer.

Results: It took 54 cubes to make a 1metre tall tower. None of us were correct but Liam and Haylee were the closest.
