The POWER of BEDMAS

This week in Maths we have been learning about BEDMAS (Brackets Exponents Division Multiplication Addition Subtraction).
Here is an screencastify of what BEDMAS is.

RUN NZ

This term our fitness focus is Cross Country. Our Teachers gave us 5 options, Option 1 was the yellow path, Option 2 was the yellow and orange, Option 3 is the whole North Island (Yellow, Orange, Purple), Option 4 is the whole North Island and blue, the last Option (Option 5) is the WHOLE of New Zealand. I chose Option 5 because I LOVE challenges.

Each lap counts as 20km. Each square counts as a lap. Here is my progress so far.

Top Cat's Equivalent Fractions

In Maths Stage 6, this and last term we have been focusing on learning about fractions. Our focus last week was Equivalent Fractions (different fractions that mean the same). 

This HERE is an activity we had to do. 

In this activity we had to colour in a box that is equivalent to the one that is inline with that collum in the bottom row. I found this activity easy because I love fractions and hard because I couldn't tell which number was which because of the font.
