Group Problem Solving - Maths

Maths on a Friday is mixed group problem solving. This is where the students work with a variety of others to answer a maths problem.

The skills again relate back to group work and they are applying their maths skills in a different way.
Last week they were working on sharing their ideas and strategies to answer the problem.

First aid

On Wednesday last week Nikoli from St John came to share some knowledge with us.

We learnt about DRSAB

Danger
Response
Send for help
Airway
Breathing

We also learnt how to bandage a large wound 

This was done in preparation for the class going to camp and gave them some insight as to what to do if in an emergency situation.  

What are we learning about ?

The coconuts maths group working really hard today during group maths.

They will tell you what they were learning below.

W.A.L.T turn decimals into money.

At maths time today we learnt how to solve problems using a calculator and division.

When diving money we only need 2 decimal places and we need to add back the $ sign. 

It was lots of fun!

Group work

Today during writing we were learning to work effectively as part of a group.

We needed a recorder, a manager, an organiser and a time keeper.

Jayden, " We were working together to create a brain storm for an explanation."

How do you classify a class!

On Monday we start out topic work and the first part of this is looking into how to classify things. 

We started with shapes and then had a bit of fun classifying ourselves in many different ways. 

The above photo is classified by "Where we were born".

The above photo is classified by "eye colour".

The class really enjoyed this and will use this knowledge when we look further into classifying "Animals".
