We are learning to find where fractions live amongst whole numbers.

Daniel went to Cadburys he bought one bag of crunchie bars, he got them for $2 because they were all broken in half. There were 11 halves in the bag, how many crunchie bars did he have all together? 5 1/2

Louise also went to Cadburys and she bought a big bag of flakes, they were only $1.50 because they were all broken into thirds. There were 13 thirds in the big bag. How many chocolate did Louise get altogether? 4 1/3

Jasen had 78 egg trays he needs 92 trays altogether, how many more does he need? + 2 to get to 80 then + 12 to get to 92 so the answer is 14.

+ 10 then + 2 +2 that gave me 14.

Rylee has some felts, she gets 128 felts for her birthday. She now has 356 felts. How many did she have already? I knew that 28 + 28 = 56 then I added 200, so the answer is 228.

Daniel and Ben had 321 toy trucks. They went shopping, now they have 567 toy trucks. How many toy trucks did they buy?

Sean, Jasen, and Louise have won lotto, Sean and Jasen won $5,100, 321. Altogether they have won $10, 298, 456. How much money did Louise win?

We are learning to solve problems like 13 + ? = 91 by jumping up a tidy number then jumping back a small number. Lets try some hard ones...

121 + A = 300 234 + * = 931 453 + F = 561 1001 + # = 2222

We are learning that problems like 34 + ? = 51 and 51 - 34 = ? have the same answer.

Jill has $73 and she spends $28. How much money does she have.

Louise has 81 gluten free lollies she eats 18 of them. How many lollies does Louise have left?

Amber has 103 tadpoles she sells 88 tadpoles to Daniel and Devon and Jacob. How many tadpoles does she have left?

Rylee has 93 seedlings she sells 57 of them to Holly, Lily, Ben, Jakob and Mitchell. How many seedlings does she have left?

We are learning to jump through a tidy number on a number line to solve problems like 17 + ? = 91 Freddo the frog lives at number 28 on the number line. He wants to visit his friend at number 81. How far does he have to jump to get there?


 * 1) 25 + ? = 81
 * 2) 39 + p = 75
 * 3) 8 + Q = 84
 * 4) 19 + # = 62

We are learning how knowing 10 ones make one 10, and 10 tens make 100 can help me solve problems like 567 + ? = 800

Julia has to save $400 for a bike. She has $287 saved. How much more does Julia have to save?

287 + ? = 400

The bank...

In charge of the hundreds In charge of the tens In charge of the ones

Jasen has $378 towards a brand new mountain bike. The mountain bike costs $1000. How much more money does Jasen need?

$378 + ? = $1000 +2 =$380 +20 =$400 + $600 =1000

so $378 + $622= $1000

<span style="color: #800080; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 160%;">We are learning how many tens there are in numbers less than 1000. <span style="color: #800000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 160%;">We are learning to subtract by splitting numbers into parts instead of counting down.

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 160%;">Brian has 14 oranges and eats 6 of them. How many are left? <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 160%;">14-6=8

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 160%;">Tara has $34 and spends $5. How much money does she have left? <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 160%;">34 - 5= <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 160%;">34-4=30-1=29

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 160%;">Sean has 75 rugby cards, he gives 8 to Daniel. How many rugby cards does he have now?
