E-ako DLO

Today our classroom registered into E-ako to do some maths. 

We had the choice to pick multiplication or addition.

I chose addition and the game was educational and fun.

It also tells you your progress. It's a good site for classrooms to use.

I enjoyed it and hope I progress in my maths, not only in addition but in measurement and everything else. 

DLO (challenge,Super Challenge with Calais)

Today I entered class a bit late but my friend calais helped me catch up with the class and we finished our first calabaratined DLO of this term and it wasn't that hard but still a bit complicated. It was still enjoyable though.

Day 2 week 3 = flying fungi = Activity 3 SLJ

On your blog, tell us how you would solve this tricky maths problem. Be sure to also post your final answer in days or weeks.

Let’s imagine that we tested the air in your classroom and found 7 different kinds of mould. Eek! The cleaner says that it takes 5 days for each mould to be eradicated (removed). If the school had to remove each mould one at a time, how long would it take to remove all the mould from the classroom?

5 x 7 = 35
35 divided by 5 = 7
