We are learning to use a rule to make a table and graph relationships, and use these to predict.

Outram Taxis The Outram Taxi company charge a flag fall of $2.50, then an additional $1.70 per kilometre.

What relationship (pattern) can you see between the cost and the distance? What is the rule?

Create a graph to answer the following questions...

What is the cost for a 4km ride? How far can you go for $11? What is the cost of an 8.6km taxi ride? How far can you travel for $40?

Tables and Chairs... What is our rule?

We are learning to use my number strategies to predict how many objects will be needed to make a pattern.





For every fish there is going to be 6 matchsticks (m) and 1 counter (c). 6n=m n=c

n= number of fish.

WALT: use our prior knowledge of division to find the percentage of amounts.

WALT: work out the percentages of amounts. Percent Out of 100...

Factors...

Equivalent fractions...

In a game of netball, Tracey gets in 37 out of her 50 shots. katherine takes 24 shots and gets in 18. Who is the better shot?





Tony got in 18 out of his 24 shots. What percentage did he shoot?





WALT: multiply fractions by whole numbers.

3/4 x 5 = 3 3/4 4 x 5/6 = 3 2/6 6 x 5/8 = 3 6/8 7 x 3/4 = 21/4 = 9 x 1/4 = 9/4 = 2 1/4 1/2 x 5 = 2 1/2 6/9 x 4= 2 6/9

WALT: use our number sense to estimate the answers to addition and subtraction of fractions without calculating the exact answer.

Is 4/9 bigger than 1/2?

Why do you think that?

WALT: solve division problems that have remainders.

We are learning to use short hand for tenths. We are learning how tenths arise out of division.

How many tenths are there in 6.5?

If Mike has 6 chocolate bars and 5 friends to share them with how much would they get each? 1.2

8 / 5 = 1.6 5 / 2 = 2.5  1 / 2 = 0.5

4 / 5 = 10 / 4 =  3 / 10 =

We are learning to select wisely between using a mental method and a written method for addition subtraction problems.

Which is the better way to solve these problems? Mentally or written?

997 + 1,234 = 2,234 - 3 =  4,546 - 2 788 =
