Algebra Problem Solving!

Today we worked on......Algebra!
We needed to do a lot of problem solving to work through this problem. We started by looking at the upside down triangle. We first thought it might 1, but that didn't work. We suggest you start with the triangles!

We then worked on this problem,

Replace the letters with numbers to make the addition work out correctly.

	R	E	A	D
+	T	H	I	S
	P	A	G	E

And we are still working!

Taking Control of OUR LEARNING!

This term, Room 6 are going to be trialing a new way of learning. We are going to be planning our day, based on a list of activities and group sessions that Miss Garland provides us.
In order for this to be successful, we need to be aware of our learning. All the time we should be asking ourselves how our learning is progressing and what our next step is.
Miss Garland has created some posters to help us be aware of our role in the Learning Process.
We started using these Save Me Starters in our math session yesterday and it worked fantastically! Now Miss Garland knows exactly how we are feeling and what she can do or where she can direct us to head to for more help.
