Maths
In Maths we have been doing these games called booklet its a really fun game.
You can make the games about anything for Maths we make them about Maths and we did on for Te Reo Maori too. There really fun the goal of the game is to get as much candy as you can the person with most candies wins. Its kind of similar to kahoot but honestly I think its funner.
In Maths weve also been learning about equivalent fractions and simplified fractions, a simplified fraction is a fraction that is bigger and can be simplified to make it lower. Eg: 10/16 can be simplified into 5/8. And an equivalent are fractions that have different numbers but are worth the same amount. Eg: 3/5 and 6/10 those areequivalent fractions.
