Maths | Perimeter | Area | Fractions

LI: to recall core skills and knowledge for addition, subtraction, multiplication, fractions, and place value.

This week we calculated area and perimeter for different shapes. There were 6 shapes that we had to calculate the perimeter and 3 of the shapes we had to calculate both area and perimeter. 

For our next activity, our task was to identify time management. There were 4 clocks with different types. For two of the clocks, we had to add a certain amount of minutes and for the other two, we had to subtract minutes.

The third activity was identifying fractions. We had to identify the fraction of a 2/3 triangle and we had to see how many ways we could split a whole, equally. As the same activity we had to see how many ways we could share 24 circles equally.

For the fourth activity, we had to add and decimals. Example: 0.5 + 0.001 = 0.501.

The methods we could have used were: Basic Facts, Tidy Numbers, Place Value, Written Algorithm, Rounding and Compensating, Reversing, Repeated Addition.

How to Reverse:

35-23=?

Reverse:

23+?=35

3+2=5

20+10=30.

10+2=12.

35-23=12.
