Rounding Large Numbers

Today for the morning session my maths group and I did a maths game that helped us with rounding numbers. This game will give you a number and suggestions on what you think what makes that number that they have given you. I found this task pretty difficult however I was able to get help to understand this more better. If you would like to play the game here is the link

Steps on how to play rounding games

Today for maths and I created a DLO that explained the steps of the games I played based on rounding numbers and decimals. These 2 games helped me a lot and I am sure that it will help you as well. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to comment down below.

WALT:round large numbers + decimals

Today for the morning block my class and I did a game that helped us with rounding decimals. This task was pretty difficult for me but at the end I had a better understanding with what rounding decimals are. I admit that I actually didn't understand some of the questions however I was able to get help on understanding how to play the game and strategies on how to get the answer. 

Today for the morning session I played another game that helped me with rounding large numbers. This task for me was pretty easy however hard at the same time. I think I did well, but I still got a lot to learn on rounding large numbers.

Austria opinion

A teacher in another school has recently blogged that:

“Students don’t learn much playing this game called Astria – Countdown to Impact: Their time could be better spent doing other things”.

I strongly disagree, because this game teaches us numerous of things such as: New vocabulary,critical thinking,inferences and so on.

This game may just be about finding clues and inferences but it has taught me some new words, for example I didn't know the word schematic until this game taught me it was a word for a detailed plan. Even though I have learnt new vocabulary, there wasn't that much questions asking about vocabulary, for example,what is the definition of a word or what's another word for this word.

Even though I only played this for an hour I have gained more knowledge by a collaborative effort. 

WALT: form our own opinion after considering both sides of the story

In this task we learned to understand that some people agree with the strike and disagree. What I did here was a powtoon based on 2 people arguing about the teachers strike. 1 person agreeing with the strike and another disagreeing. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to comment down below.
Hope you enjoy it!

Double Exposure

Double Exposure 

What I did here was I took a photo of myself in black and white. I then looked for a pattern photo to put on top of my photo of myself. Then I had to change the brightness to lighten and the same thing  when you do your contrast. If you will like to know more info about how to make one or even create your own click on this link.

Teachers Strike

Today my partner and I made a DLO about why New Zealand teachers are striking. We support them 100% with their choice to do a strike because they know what's best for us students and how they can make teaching easier. If you have any questions please don't be afraid to comment down below.
