Elise, Penny And Christie's Maths Game

What you will need:
One whole deci pipe
10 tenths of a deci pipe
10 hundredths of a deci pipe
One bead chain

Instructions:

1. Player 1 gives player 2 some deci pipes including at least 1 tenth, 1 hundredth and 1 thousandth to make a three place decimal

2. Player 2 uses the pipes that player 1 gave them and puts them on the whole pipe and shows player one what the decimal number is on the number fan.Remember to explain why. eg: 0.537 because there is 5 tenths on the deci pipe so you put the 5 straight after the point. There are 3 hundredths on the pipe so I put the 3 in the hundredths column. There are 7 thousandths on the pipe so the 7 goes in the thousandths column.

3. Using the beads player 2 shows the decimal number. Remember the beads will not show the thousandths. Take away the thousandths from the number. Eg. .256 will turn into .25.

Daily reflection

Today in maths I learnt how to find out what number comes next in a pattern without going through and writing every number down. Because of this learning I can now understand how to get the answer quickly because I wont have to write it all down.
Something I don't understand is how to find out the next 100 or 1,000 numbers in a pattern.
The next step in my learning is to find out how to list all the numbers upo to 1,000 without writing every number down.

Penny's SLC reflection.



I think My Student Led Conference went really well because I didn't run out of time or not have enough work to fill in the time.
I knew why I chose them, what the purpose was and how I was going to share them.


The things I think I did best at were my spelling, writing and maths the things I think I needed more work on were my mihi and the celebrating diversity.

The feedback from my parents was all positive.
