Math Update

Our final task in geometry was about building a fantasy city made of 3D solids. Once the cities were completed students took an "airplane" to visit another city and  become a tourist. They had to pack their math notebooks and pencils. When they arrived at the city they wrote about what they saw using math vocabulary. 

Next week we will begin our measurement unit by learning about estimating and why we do this. The measurement unit is about three weeks with a performance task at the end. It leads nicely into our big unit about addition and subtraction and money. 

As we enter Term Two students can expect a little bit more math homework. There will be some measurement challenges to be completed at home and later some addition and subtraction games that will be sent home. Please remind your child to check their agenda nightly!
