Maths Flash Cards.

Hi I'm Ingrid and I'm from Wesley Intermediate school and this week we have been making flash cards for maths. Flash cards can help you improve on you basic facts knowledge and speed. They don't just have to be used for basic facts only.



We made our flash cards from some old cardboard and some paper we glued them together and we decorated them with our new class colouring pencils and we wrote our equations. We then had to buddy up into groups and test each other on our flash cards. They had to be equations that where not answered of had been wrong. They where equations from the maths test that was made us of Multiplication and division. Some other people had other questions.
Everyone had different kinds of flash cards.   Everyday we have to test each other with the equations. Everyday we get better. Flash cards are a way to get better a maths and more efficient with it too.

Blogging and learning in the classroom.

Hi I'm Ingrid and I'm from Wesley Intermediate school and today I will be telling you about blogging and learning in the classroom.

In room 9 we didn't blog very much. Then our teacher Mr Walker got us to blog more. After we post we link our post to what we call a learning log. A learning log is one of these. A google sheet filled with links.
This is a learning log. You link all of your work to it unless your work is in your book.
When we blog we add a DLO, A Digital learning objective. If you did your work in your book it would just be an LO, Learning Objective. Alright back to blogging. When I blog I start off by introducing myself then I tell them what I will be talking about. I add pictures not just words and I like to ask questions. With blogging I think that I need to work on making my posts easier to read.

Now what do I like to do first when I blog?
What else do I need to work on?
