Alex & Malulu How to choose a muesli bar.

I learnt that it is good to look at the labels of the bars that you eat.So you can see the amount of energy, fibre, fat and whole grain and I learnt that some bars are good for you and some bars are bad.

Me and Alex's Loom Band Status


Firstly, me and my friend Alex think that loom bands should be banned because they distract people’s learning, and it’s a distracting equipment. Since we have had loom bands in our school, people have been fighting, arguing and people have been stood down for not playing fair.If it isn’t banned, they should let the people who play fair, play with them and ban those who do not play fair.

3) If 3 × 15 = 45 what is 3 × 16 ?
48 because 3x15 is 45+3=48
Exercise 8 What to do
Use the strategy add a little/subtract a little to solve these problems.
Julie wanted to find 3 × 28.
She knows that 28 is near 30, so she used 3 × 30 = 90 and subtracted 3 × 2 = 6 to get the answer.
Julie recorded this in her maths book
3 × 28 = 90 – 6 = 84
Using Julie’s method find the answer to the following problems. Record your working like Julie did.
1) 5 × 19
100 – 5 = 95
5x20=100-5=95
(2) 6 × 41
240 + 6 = 246
6x40=240+6=246
(3) 3 × 59
180 – 3 = 177
3x60=180-3=177
4) 4 × 52
200 + 8 = 208
4x50=200+8=208
(5) 3 × 73
210 + 9 = 219
3x70=210+9=219
(6) 8 × 37
320 – 24 = 296
8x40=320-24=296
7) 3 × 102
300 + 6 = 306
3x100=300+6=306
(8) 6 × 301
1000+6=1006
6x300=1800+6=1006
(9) 8 × 598
4800-16=4784
8x600=4800-16=4784

Dear Mrs Parker,

I am writing this letter to say thank you for being an amazing teacher to me. You always push me to do my best. Mrs Parker, you are someone I look up to.

Mrs Parker I have learned interesting things from you. My favourite subject  is Mathematics and you teach it in an interesting way.

Once again I would like to thank you for teaching me stuff such as maths, reading and writing. I wish you could be my teacher next year but I have to go to college. Thank you very much once again.

Yours sincerely


Malulu
