Fun Maths Reflection


WALT  divide or share things equally.


 Maths Reflection
Today we did Maths with Ms Sue. We learned how to share and to divide pieces to each group. I learned how to solve fractions in different ways. We were split into groups of 4 so we can do our work. Ms Sue gave us pieces of papers to work on, we were pretty smart on the questions.

Our question was: Seven bars to the four children going kayaking.
..So we had to try and divide it to each person so they can have their share.


So we did:
We gave 1 wholes to each person and we had 3 bars left, what we did was split the wholes into 4 quarters because, there was 4 of them. Then we shared 3 quarters to each person and then they had 1/3 each.
So that is the strategy we used to complete this task.

I contributed by helping them solve the problem using my Maths skills to answer the question.

                         Our answer for the question was: 7 ÷ 4= ⅓
I learned how to put fraction pieces into groups and learned how to split wholes into smaller fractions.

It was a nice session that I had with Ms  Sue and her partner.
