LUKAS Maths Learning Story.
The problem
Allister and Sam are refilling the fridge with milk cartons. They want to save time by transporting the milk boxes in a bigger container so they can carry more at once.
You may not like maths but it will take you somewhere in life.
We wanted to know the volume of the height the width and the length so we chose to go 3x10x4.5 because it is the length x the height and the width of the milk cartons.
But to find the volume I had to make good choices so I sat next to people that I know that I could get my work done with.
We went 33x33x28 because it was the width x the length and height of the whole container the answer that we got from it was 30,492 .
So we thought to ourselves how can we solve it as a group so we were negotiating and asking each other questions.
So we went 30492 divided by 135 because 135 is the answer that we got from the width x height and length of the milk carton and 30492 was from the 33x33x28cm from the big container.
And the answer that we got was 225 milk cartons so we know that the answer is 225.
We were really good at choosing good spots to do our work so everyone else can get their work done too.
I had to think of a good spot and good people that will support me with my learning so I can become the best maths learner I can be.
I was good at asking questions so my ideas can spark with other people in my group .
The K.C skills I used when I was working in my group were managing self by making sure me and my group were being the best maths learners that we could be in the future and the other K.C skill I was using was thinking because I was making good choices so other people can finish with their work.
My next steps are to skim and scam so I know the problem more clearly.
ROMAN’S Feedback: When we were solving the problem, Luka was really good at explaining his ideas to us. He focused on the problem and was asking questions and telling us what he thought.
