Strengthening connections to Maths language


L.I: Strengthening connections to Maths Language.

This week in Maths we completed a Maths Vocabulary challenge to help strength our maths language. I have also worked with Victoria on this task. As a class, we first explored the different ways of saying "Hello", looking at it in different languages and how we use the word in different situations. Then we were asked to discuss the word "plane" with a partner. Out of misunderstanding, everyone thought of it as a air-craft and not the maths meaning of it being a flat plane (surface). We worked collaboratively in pairs to drag words in their related topics being either Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division, Equality, Inequality, Variable, and Answer using a the explore tool and maths dictionary to find out what some words mean and trying to place each word in a section. Doing this activity will help me understand a wider range of Maths meanings when it comes to problems.
