Bar graphs

My Reflection:
This is my graph of when Room 13 people go to bed, this was a little tricky for me but I got the hang of it soon.  We had to collect data to finish our graph, we also had to know how we had done and who we hadn't so I ticked the people that I had done.  I hope I can do some more graphs on the laptop and on paper.  Next time I do this I would like to do a pie graph.

Learning to solve maths word problems

Reflection on my learning:  

This term I have been learning how to solve maths word problems.
I learned that drawing a problem can help you figure out what is happening. It helps my mind to remember.

To do this problem I used my times table knowledge to help help work out 5 x $4 and 5 x 50c. I also drew a picture of the doll and the pocket money to make it easier to work out how many weeks she would need to save for.

I have also learned how to act out a problem and how to use a grid. I like using a grid because it's fun and it helps you to remember the doubles of big numbers.

Next, I would like to keep using grids.
