Problem solving

 Today we used place value to solve an equation. 

First we started with the ones by adding them togather 4 + 6 + 7=10. Then we add them togather 10+7=17.

Next we added the tens togather wich is 20 + 20 + 10=50. Next we added the tens and ones togather which is 50+17=67.

Now we know she practised for 67 minutes. So then we subtracted 67 from 90. 0-7 is not possible so we did 10-7=3. 

Lastly we did 80-60=20 then we added that togather which is 23 so Leilani needs to practise for another 23 mins.

I didn't know what to do so I waited to see what other people examples are so I could think of one.

Basic Facts Boxes

This week I did addition on basic facts boxes.

I got 100 out of 100 answers correct , I finished under 3 minustes and 29 seconds but I think I can do better.  Next time I do basic facts boxes I will attempt to do addition up to 100.

I like my times tables because it helps me learn them so I will know them straight away.







Typing

 I did a can-do activity called dance dancing mat. 

First I went on dancing typing mat and set up a 15 minute timer.

Next I put my finger on the home row keys.

Lastly I took a screen shot of my results and put it on a google slide and write what I needed to improve on.

I need to improve on putting my hands on the home row section in stead of pointing at the keys.




SSR Selfie

 I read a fiction book by Kazu Kibuishi.

In Amulet Emily  and her dad when camping Emily and her dad starts climbing a cliff. At the top of the cliff emily up there waiting for her dad and hurrys him to get up there and have a look at the amazing view. Then Emily wakes up from her dream and goes to see her friends they all meet in the boat that they are sailing on.


I like reading fiction books but I don't really learn new words.
