Making maths strategy decisions as a group

Sometimes I can solve a problem in my head by moving numbers around by imagining what they look like. Sometimes I need a strategy to solve a complex problem.

Which strategy do you use to solve a problem? Is it the most efficient? Let's compare to others. The Hexagons Group had a variety of word problems to solve using different operations. They used their own strategies and then worked with others to compare what they had done. They decided on the best strategy between them and recorded it here.

Chantelle's Teach the teacher - origami rabbits -and look how are Little Gardens are growing!

Chantelle patiently taught everyone to make origami rabbits all morning! Thank you for organising all the materials Chantelle! You were a super teacher!

Next we are really looking after our seeds and look how much they have grown! We have been putting them in the sun and carefully spraying water on them so they don't get too wet!

Little Gardens growing flowers for the Bees at school.

Always moving at Sunnyhills School - keeping fit and having fun in Spring weather!

First up we have Max M's Teach the teacher - where he shared some very complicated but fun soccer moves and we all had a really good growth mindset and had a go! None of us sprained an ankle!

We have continued our running training and are thinking of the Huff n puff early next term! Most of us can now easily do 3 laps and pushing towards 4 laps now. Remember to bring your PE uniform and running shoes to protect those little growing bones every Tue and Thur.

Badminton Auckland sent Dhanny to teach us how to play this fun indoor sport. We learned lots of fun warm ups followed by the different grips and ways to hit the shuttle across the net. Once again a really great mindset from everyone and we are keen to have another go next term. Mrs Fowler has bought some more badminton equipment for our PE shed so we can continue playing.
