Learning Long Division

By Anonymous -
The Rectangles math group has begun to learn how to use long division to solve division problems. We worked on the mat today and discussed how we can make dividing as easy as possible. We know that the first step is to be able to take away the biggest tidy chunk by using our multiplication facts. After that, we know that we can keep doing this until we get to a number that is in our basic facts knowledge. We also know that we need to record how many times the number we are dividing by goes into the number under the division symbol on top of the division symbol.

Check out our awesome working out.

Chinese Lion Dance

A huge thank you to the AMAZING E-Pacs Lion & Dance Group for coming to Sunnyhills to show and teach us about the Chinese Lion Dance. We had so much fun listening to you and now know so much more about Chinese New Year. I really loved when Tracey the lion dancer put on the costume and showed us how to do some of the lion dance steps. Which part did you like? Please check out the videos below:

Continuing on from our amazing lesson with Mrs Lee in the Exploration Station, we have been working on our projects to share our knowledge on how to be safe and strong online. It is so important that we are aware of the dangers that could happen and what we can do if we don't feel safe. We really love coming into the Exploration Station where we can create games online with Scratch, film videos with our friends and make wonderful models and game boards. Rebecca and Danielle have already created and completed a video showing what they know about being safe and strong online. Check it out below. And here are some action shots with projects in the making.
