Thinking criticaly

In reading we are thinking critically about we read. We have to ask appropriate questions to our selves to we believe what read is true when you believe it true you ask why is it true. I think that when its true the information is accurate because you've read other topics similar towards this text.

Explain

In writing we are learning the genre explain. Explain is a piece of writing that excludes argumentative talking reiteration and opening statements. I am use to this particular type of writing things I find easy is using correct language and filling my writing with facts. The thing I find hard is to constantly use writing skills that is appropriate.

Problem solving

In class we are very ecstatic about math we are in small groups of people we are problem solving questions that we need to explore to find new ways. We are recording our math in a systematic way.
We have been trying to think of ways to investigate the problem we are trying to figure out. We all have different ways of thinking which means we all have many ideas and a bunch of things to say.My next step is to always use a systematic table and contribute to the group.

Problem solving

In math we were learning skills for problem solving such as exploring strategies, explaining our thinking, extending further information, evaluating and learning to reflect. We were working as teams to adapt our skills to explain to each other our ideas using talk moves to help understand our thinking. The thing I need to work on is to be more supportive and work with my group more.

Thinking crittically

This week we are still learning to think critically about what you read and evaluate the text. The hard part is to find questions to relate to the topic. The easy part is to always have either one or two questions that is good for the topic. To think critically is about asking the right question, questions that help you receive both meanings of arguments.When you read you need to find the right question whilst reading a book.

reading

This week we have been learning to think critically about what you read and evaluate the text. The hard part is to stay on task when people are talking to you. The easy part is to think when your working as a group because your on the same page. To think critically is about asking the right question, questions that help you receive both meanings of arguments.

Making 37

In math we were learning how to make 37 out of 10 numbers using the numbers 1,3,5 and 7. I explored this and found out this is impossible to make 37 out of these numbers because odd and odd equals even.
All the numbers we were exploring were odd which means it can only make even. To make 37 you can use numbers such as 9 11 still using the 1,3,5 and 7. You can solve this question by not using 10 as a total.

  • 7+1+7+1+3+1+7+1+1+1+7=37
  • 1+7+1+7+1+7+1+7+1+3+1=37
  • 3+1+7+5+5+7+7+3=37
