4/7/18

This term in Te Maunga we have been doing math problem solving for math. Math problem solving is when you are in groups and you have to work out problems using your times tables and division. This week we did Matariki problem solving.We had to find out how many points all the Matariki stars had all together if they had 5 points and if they had 7 points. The answer for 5 points was 5 x 7 = 35 and the answer for 7 points was 7 x 7 = 49.

In term 2 Te Maunga & Te Tahuna went to Waitangi Treaty Grounds. We went there because we were learning about Matariki and how we celebrate it. I learnt how to make a flax fish and we also did some planting and played maori games. The games where Maui (left) - Matau (right) and Mu Torere. After we  finished all the activities we had some kai (food).
