Serenity EA/AA Term 4 Week 5 Problem Solving

1.  Tessa has bought 40 mini chocolate bars to put in goodie bags at her party. She has 8 goodie bags. How many does she need to put in each?

= 5 because 5 times 8 = 40 and she puts

5 mini chocolate bars in each goodie bag

2. John has a pizza he has cut into 16 pieces? He eats some then leaves ¾ of the pizza for the rest of the family How many slices did he eat and how many are left for the family?

= 4,  4 times 4 = 16

so john has eaten 4 pizza’s and left 4 more

3. Trevor has to drive 422 km’s. He looks at his odometer and sees he has gone 289 kms. How much further has he got to go?

422 - ? = 289       289 - ? = 422     

289 + 1 = 290    290 + 10 = 300   300 +122 = 422

122 + 10 + 1 = 133

4. The shop is selling sandals for $9 a pair.  They have sold $486 worth of jandals so far. How many pairs have they sold?

= 54 because 9 times 50 = 450

450 + 9 = 540  

5. Sam was giving away some of his marbles. He has 96 altogether. He said to his friend Ben, “You can choose to have  ¼  of them all or ⅔   of ½ of them.” Which should Ben choose?

⅔ because it equals up to 64 which is bigger than ½ of 96 and ¼ of 96

6. The A Softball team has scored 72 goals over the season so far. The is 6 times more than what the B Softball team has scored. How many goals has the B team scored in the season so far?

6 times 12 = 72   the answer is 12

7. 7 of the class are not going on camp. The ¾ of the class are. How many are in the class altogether

= 21 because ¾ of 28 = 21,  you put 7 in each box which equals up to 21  

8. There are  8 boxes. Each box has 25 apples in it. How many apples are there altogether?

200 altogether because 8 times 20 = 160   8 times 5 = 40 160 + 40  = 200

 

My math strategies, Working out

 Mineus. There were 225 people at the movies than 8 had to leave. How many were left?

225 - 8 = 217    225 - 5 = 220   220 - 3 = 217     

                                                                                                                                     

Fraction. John has a pizza he has cut into 16 pieces? He eats some then leaves ¾ of the pizza for the rest of the family How many slices did he eat and how many are left for the family?

= 4,  4 times 4 = 16 so john has eaten 4 pizza’s and left 4 more

Multiplication.  Tessa has bought 40 mini chocolate bars to put in goodie bags at her party. She has 8 goodie bags. How many does she need to put in each?

= 5 because 5 times 8 = 40 and she puts 5 mini chocolate bars in each goodie bag

Addition. Trevor has to drive 422 km’s. He looks at his odometer and sees he has gone 289 kms. How much further has he got to go?

422 - ? = 289       289 - ? = 422     

289 + 1 = 290    290 + 10 = 300   300 +122 = 422

122 + 10 + 1 = 133

Creative Strand Reflection (thinking hats)

Read hat:

this literacy task was cool to do for this week I had heaps of fun doing this task because we could chose a song in this task.   

Green hat:

this task was very interesting because we could do different shots and from different places like from a corner.    

Black hat:

I enjoyed mostly everything this week but their was one thing that I didn’t enjoyed is that sometimes people just don’t have the guts or in other words don’t do what want to do what the story boards says.

White hat:

I enjoyed working with another person from another class, also dancing with the little kids.

Yellow:

The things that I learnt is to try and not waste time while going out filming also not to change things from the storyboard.     

Blue:

What I need to work on is to spend my time getting people to be in our movie also to things to where its suppose to be like taking shots from the same spot what the storyboard says on it.
