Maths reflection Term 4

During maths this week I've learnt how to simplify a fraction for e.g if you had to share 5 pizzas to 6 people equally. First you have to cut the pizza to the number of people which is 6. Each person has to get 1 piece from each pizza which is ⅙. But you have to have ⅙ from the five pizzas. So you basically have to add the 1/6 5 times.

Maths Reflection

During this week in room 7 I have learnt about measurement for e.g In 1 cm (center meter) there are 10 miller meters, and in 1 km (kilometers) there are 1000 meters.
To measure a door you would need cm or meters. To measure a pencil you would need mm, and to measure the whole of New Zealand you would need kilometers.
