Multiplying Decimals

WALT: Multiplying Decimals to whole numbers.

 

This week we have been learning how to multiply decimals. We had to remember our numeracy strategies, for example, 0.8=8÷10=8 tenths. So when we were solving a problem we used our knowledge of how to multiply numbers. We also had to make sure the equal sign remained unerneath each other, so it is easy for others to read and understand our procedure.

At the start, I found this difficult. We did a session on how to multiply and divide by 10, 100, and 1000. If we multiply our number will get bigger, so the decimal point will move to the right. If we divide, the decimal point will move to the left. The number of zeros will tell use how many spaces in each direction it moves. Also, a ‘place holder’ of zero if needed.

Anyway, here are a few examples of me showing how I solved different problems. With practice i’ll become alot more confident at solving these types of math questions.

Panui

Kia Ora Koutou,

 

Every week our teacher “Whaea Gaylene” she has picked books from Takawiniwini for room 8 and  this is for “Panui”. And each time I read the books that our teacher chosses for all of us I learn a new kupu  in Te Reo Maori every time. even though it might sound the same, it can mean  something else. So reading a book in Te Reo  Maori,  it has tought me new words and I can read it over and over again and  it helps me of  how you can use those new kupu and put it in sentences.

 

This is my book that I have been researching hope you enjoy.

Panui

Kia Ora Koutou,

This week room 8 we have been told to read a book and there are three groups, and I am in group Kakapo we had to read the book that our Teacher Whaea Gaylene has picked for us first and if there were any kupu’s that we didn’t know then we would have to go on Te aka and try to understand that Kupu that we didn’t know and I have learnt By reading my book, when I was reading the book there was a Kupu that I knew but it meant something else, the Kupu was “Pātū” this word meant “Wall” but I thouht it meant “hit”

Every monday Morning our Tumuaki gives us Tamariki a message. This weeks Message was “you are not too old to learn New things”. And we had to Reflect on our Tumuakis message. We had to make a little Graph about what we did on the weekends and talk about the things we can do. And below here is what I have learnt over my weeks at home or anywhere else.

Panui

Kia ora koutou katoa,

This week I have been reading a book and learning the books words in Maori and researching what they mean. Also, I have translated the words that I did not know and I have learned new words by reading this book.

What I found interesting is that I didn’t know that ka maringi mai he ua ‘patapata’ – a heavy rain poured down. That was a new sentence I haven’t heard before.

Here is my reading post. Hope you enjoy!

Attendance for 2024

Kia ora koutou katoa.

I have made a graph about Attending school and it shows here my best and worst months, my best months were May and July also my worst months were June and August. If you are a year 8 and you have not been coming to school and your attendance is below 80% the you will not graguate this year. Also there is a reward at the end of this term, if your attendance is over 80% then you will attend to that haerenga that the  principal has planed for all of us. Also coming to school will help you in your learning and it will help you to keep up with everyone else in your class. So that´s why you should always come to school.

Hangaia Maro

Kia Ora Koutou,
Here is the mahi I did for my Maro. My poster shows the different parts of it, e.g the taura, whenu, whati stitch, how we whakaataahua our maro. I love doing mahi toi, so this wasn’ hard for me. I actually had to help alot of my class because they got stuck alot. I think the trickiest part for everyone was the whati stitch. The whenu were quite flimsy so when you weave to bring strands together you had to make sure that you had the right amount of whenu and that the strings locked them in place. We measured the length by multiplying the width of our whenu by eight.

Anei taku mahi,
Nā Keogh.
