We have had a very busy start to term three! Amongst the inter-school sport, testing, Kiwi Sport, lunch time clubs etc... we have managed to keep our Algebra lessons ticking along!
I am really impressed with the discussions and effort going in to learning about algebraic patterns, rules and equations.
The children are either invited to, or able to 'opt in' to work shops I take each day. These to recap any areas I notice some people are not feeling confident in. While this happens others are moving forward with a challenge using skills they have learn in the previous lesson.
Above: 1. Jackson showing the workshop the rule he came up with "f x 6 = p" and explaining why it works. 2. A group working on algebraic equations and discussing
why x would be 3.
Above: 1. Ben completing a crossword using algebraic equations as clues. 2. Paige showing the workshop group her rule "(fx2)+1=p"
