Group maths talk

For maths today, Taha worked on a maths problem about measurement together in groups of 3. Linda, Angelica and I worked together.

I found the problem challenging. I had to understand the little bits of information before carrying onto the questions. It was easier once we put our heads together and solved the problem as a team. The problem is available on our class site:https://sites.google.com/a/glenbrae.school.nz/gbs2016room7/?pli=1.

The word problem 

This word problem was really fun to work out. As part of this math problem we had to create a map, following the pirates directions, to find the treasure. As you can see the treasure has been found in 3,3 because it is half way between the first rock and the most western tree, as stated in the the word problem. Here is my Treasure map.

160+14=174
