Measurement – Time

Task description: This week room 8 are learning how to measure/tell the time, for one of the slides we had to get a partner and when we found our partner we all lined up outside with our partner and walked to the school field, the first thing we did was running around the school field, my partner went first for the race (or just the run) and I had to time on how long it takes for her to come back, and when she finished it was my turn to run and it was my partners turn to time me run, after the run we had to spin around in a circle 5 times and do 5 jumping jacks. When we finished we all went to class and finish the rest of the slides for maths.

Equivalent Fractions

Task description: Today room 8 are learning MORE Fractions but this task is kinda just like an extra or a warm up task, but what we are really learning is PERCENT, and room 8 learned that Per is per something (like one per person) and cent is 100 (which might not make since to you), and Fractions is like a halve of something (like a piece of cake or pizza) , I also think that this Math task was easy but until it turned into the 1/5 but to solve a 1/5 problem then you just divided it by 5 (you can check slide 4 if you don’t get what I mean).
