Today, Room 5 did a “How Many Ways” Question for the target number 25. This means that students experimented with balanced equations that give a total of 25. As well, students are beginning to challenge themselves to make more interesting equations with multiple terms, operations etc.
One example equation could be:
100 – 25 – 25 – 25 = 17 + 8
As we explore equations we will learn more ways to do this – we don’t know them all yet! See the photo for some examples we have started with.
For homework tonight,
- Make any corrections Mr. Whitton asked you to check,
- USING PEN, ADD ONE NEW CHALLENGING EQUATION
- Share the work with a parent and have them initial it to show they have seen it
Please return the math folder tomorrow to school!
