Camp reflection

                                            Camp reflection


Earlier this week we went to fox glacier forcampand this is my reflection of the camp.


The walks where the best things that We did the best one was the one to the glacier it was nearly 30km and we cared ice back to the camp it took 4 hours.
The 2nd best things that had happened on camp was seeing the nice light blue glacier it looked bigger when you were far away from it.


We played spotlight at the fox glacier school and that was probably the 2nd best thing that We did.


The 3rd best thing was seeing the glow worms we went at 7.00 i really liked seeing the glow worms. It wasn't that cold of a night though because we were wearing jerseys and pants  


The 4th best was playing the geolocation when we had to go down the glow worm track then we had to go to the church that was the hardest one the fun one was when we had to connect when people had do stuff and all of the 1990’s stuff it was really easy and fun though.


The 5th best was the time when we had to stop at harihari and got to see the people doing the tiles he had a hole heap of paintings surrounding him  there was also a plane there we got to look at it it had landed upside down on the because it had crash landed on the beach.


The 6th best thing was when we got to go on the playground and play cheat it was really hard to play cheat because you had to be on the fort the whole time there was a whole lot of room but you could hardly get there.

Reflections Week 8


I have learnt how to make a water cycle using google drawings.
I thought that this was a bit easy  but not a lot.
I learnt that precipitation is when it rains and that ground flow is when the water goes under ground and it seeps out into a lake.



This week Iv'e learnt that a tornado is the most dangerous place when the tornado is in a ditch and that earthquake are most dangerous in a city because bits of building can fall on you and swash you.



Exercise 5

Use the information given to you to derive the answer to a similar problem.


  1. If 4 × 200 = 800 what is 4 × 201 ?  804
  2. If 7 × 300 = 2100 what is 7 × 301 ?  2107
  3. If 8 × 400 = 3200 what is 8 × 402 ?  3216
  4. If 9 × 500 = 4500 what is 9 × 501 ?  4509
  5. If 5 × 600 = 3000 what is 5 × 602?  3010
  6. If 3 × 700 = 2100 what is 3 × 704 ?  2112
  7. If 2 × 800 = 1600 what is 2 × 803 ?  1606
8) If 6 × 900 = 5400 what is 6 × 903 ?  5418


Exercise 6
What to do   
Use the information given to you to derive the answer to a similar problem.


  1. If 4 × 200 = 800 what is 4 × 199 ?  796
  2. If 7 × 300 = 2100 what is 7 × 299 ?  2093
  3. If 8 × 400 = 3200 what is 8 × 398 ?  3184
  4. If 9 × 500 = 4500 what is 9 × 498 ?  4482
  5. If 5 × 600 = 3000 what is 5 × 597 ?  2985
  6. If 3 × 700 = 2100 what is 3 × 698 ?  2094
  7. If 2 × 800 = 1600 what is 2 x 797 ?  1594
  8. If 6 × 900 = 5400 what is 6 × 897 ?  5382


Exercise 7
What to do   
Use the information given to you to derive the answer to a similar problem.


  1. If 2 × 25 = 50 what is 2 × 24 ?  43
  2. If 4 × 25 = 100 what is 4 × 27 ?  108
  3. If 3 × 15 = 45 what is 3 × 14 ?  42
  4. If 4 × 15 = 60 what is 4 × 17 ?  68
  5. If 6 × 15 = 90 what is 6 × 14 ?  84
  6. If 2 × 25 = 50 what is 2 × 26 ?  52
  7. If 4 × 25 = 100 what is 4 × 24 ?  96
  8. If 3 × 15 = 45 what is 3 × 16 ?  48
  9. If 4 × 15 = 60 what is 4 × 13 ?  52
  10. If 6 × 15 = 90 what is 6 × 17 ?  102


Exercise 8
What to do   
Use the strategy add a little/subtract a little to solve these problems.  


Julie wanted to find 3 × 28.


She knows that 28 is near 30, so she used 3 × 30 = 90 and subtracted 3 × 2 = 6 to get the answer.  


Julie recorded this in her maths book


3 × 28 = 90 – 6 = 84


Using Julie’s method find the answer to the following problems.  Record your working like Julie did.


1) 4 × 19 =76 (2) 3 × 41=123                  (3) 5 × 59=295
4) 7 × 52 =364     (5) 4 × 73=292 (6) 3 × 37= 111
7) 6 × 102=612      (8) 5 × 301=1505 (9) 4 × 698=2792
10) 3 × 499=1497 (11) 7 × 602=4214 (12) 9 x 3999=35,991

I thought that this week it was a really challenging because you have to figure out 6 × 900 = 5400 what is 6 × 897 ? without cheating  
It was really challenging

Week 7 Reflection



I learnt how to make a untidy number to a tidy number.
I really liked doing this because is keeps you brain thinking.

Week 6 Reflection



Here is some maths that I did I hope that you can find a different way to Figure it out. I learnt how to go past 4x12had had to do 21 x 4 witch equaled 84 so i had to - 1 to make it 83 so we had 1 extra.  



I learnt that you should not litter in the New Zealand other wise you might not have that much fresh water left in New Zealand.
