Task Description: For our Teacher Maths Session today we had to Add and Subtract Fractions with related Denominators. Moe and I learnt about adding fractions and a ton of Shortcuts which we are very proud of. Such as, finding out which fraction is bigger. We found a shortcut taught by Ms Fonua.
Task Description: I think this festival have been pretty successful. We both have been doing our equal shares on each stall, which are good. I’m glad we both knew what to do in each situation. Though we should’ve promoted more like the others so we’d have more customers. Still, I think my group, (Moe and I,) were great!
Task Description: For Matariki Festival, Team Tui has planned something very special and my group are making, Blondies. Blondies are very delicious and is very recommended for others.

Step One: Preheat the oven to 350° Fahrenheit and line an 8×8 square baking pan with parchment paper.
In a microwave safe mixing bowl, melt the butter. Add both sugars to the bowl and whisk for a few minutes until the texture resembles a paste and pulls away from the side of the bowl.
Step Two: Add in the egg and vanilla extract and continue whisking.
Step Three: Add in the flour and salt and gently mix until the dry ingredients are just incorporated. Be careful not to over-mix, as this will affect the texture of the blondies! Carefully fold in the chocolate and pour the batter into the baking pan.
Step Four: Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until a toothpick in the middle comes out almost clean. There shouldn’t be any wet batter on it, but there may be a few wet crumbs. This means they are ready! Let the blondies cool completely before slicing.

Task Description: Team Tui did some measuring maths today with any measuring items used to measure a shape by our choices. How did we work it out by centimetre? Here’s our strategy also shown on the paper.
9.13+9.13+14.3+14.3+13.5= 59.37 cm, how? Algorithm.
9.13 14.3 18.26
+ 9.13 + 14.3 + 28.6
——– ——– ———
18.26 cm 28.6 cm 46.32 cm
+ 13.5 cm
————-

Millimetres: 593.7 mm
Centimetres: 59.37 cm
