Transformations In Real Life Math Project

Math homework for week 9. Your homework for this week is to create a presentation of some kind which shows examples of all of the different types of transformation...


If you find any examples of Tesselation, it would be great to have some photos of those also!
Here is an example of what you presentation may look like. You do not have to create a video. It is up to you. Try to be creative and use a new site or app. Remember that this is due on Friday.

If you are unsure of any of the areas, try playing some of the games in our math symbaloo at the bottom of our class blog.

Room 17 Athletics Training

Homework Week 7

Lots of amazing homework was shared this week. Miss Garland is totally blown away by the creativity and determination of room 17 students. Ka mau te wehi!

Super Athletes!

Room 17 had an amazing day at Athletics! We all made our house proud and did our best in all the activities!As you can see....

Summarising

Today we spoke about summarising. When looking at our responses on Actively Learn, some of us are unsure about summarising. We seem to put in too much detail and not identify all of the main points, so we have all had a turn using the Chrome app, Video Not.es. Have a look at our blogs and see how we went....
This is what Video Not.es looks like...

Decimals

Today we began working on adding and subtracting decimals. This is a bit tricky for some of us. If you need more practice, make sure that you watch the videos again. Miss Garland feels a bit geeky doing this, but she thinks it might help you to remember and visualise when you are working with decimals.
