Room6@Sunnyhills

In room 6 for the last four weeks we have been using an amazing kit to help us develop our knowledge about Statistics and Measurement. We have researched what it takes to create a world record, created our own records and now we are testing and challenging them. While we are testing our records we are using lots of mathematical language, measuring things using the metric system, converting measurements, collecting data, organising data, analysing data and soon we will be presenting and displaying data. We are having so much fun working with friends and using our Sunnyhills GEMS to help us create our world records. Check out some of the photos from today!                

This morning Mrs Madden email the Sunnyhills teachers a mathematical challenge to try with our students. At first, we though the answer was straight forward but after calculating and re-calculating we realised it would not be as easy as we thought.  We pulled out lots of materials (plastic cubes, blocks, counters and tens blocks) to help us try to understand and solve this challenge. After much brainpower and with the help of our classmates (and teacher) we managed to solve the challenge. So now, WE CHALLENGE YOU! See if you are able to find the numbers to go in each square and comment your answers below. We will let you know if you are right or if you need to try again.
