Celebrating the Arts

This term our topic is Celebrating the Arts. Over the last two weeks we have been researching a genre or era of music in small groups. Here is Gemma and Holly's creation - they were researching reggae!

Jelly Bean Jar Estimations

Since the beginning of the term Room 6 has been making estimations about the number of Jelly Beans held in a container in the classroom. We have used our maths to work out the minimum, maximum, mode, range, median and mean of our estimates. Here are some photos of us working out the total sum so that we could work out the mean.

 Caitlin, Jordan and Tiaki worked hard as group and used materials to help them.

 These clever problem solvers even managed to work out how many jelly beans each member of our class would receive. The equation was 426 divided by 27!

Culminating Activity

 Here is Zac trying out one of the Room 8 interactive displays.

Bella and Lily enjoyed testing out the awesome experiment that Holly created!
