Week 6
1. How well did your group work in the kitchen?
I was in the group that made the
jam drops. We worked well together as a group. Before we started we decided on
a job for everyone. This made the making and baking run smoothly. Overall great
team work by everyone.
2. Are you looking forward to holding the
baked goods stall?
I am very excited about working
at the stall on the weekend. I think I will do well at serving customers as the
role-play really helped me. I am a little worried that I might give a customer
the wrong change however I am sure our teacher will help us out if we need it.
I think it will really help everyone with their money skills.
Week 2
We completed lots of activities this week. My favourite part
was talking to the lady from the bank over Skype.
1. Did you find the money video helped you to
recognise the colours of notes and coins I liked the video. I already knew the
colour of the coins but it really helped me to tell the difference between the
notes. I think that it is good that the teacher is putting the link on our
class blog so that we can watch it again if we forget something.
2. Did the money video help you with the valve
from smallest to largest of the currency?
The video helped me because you could see
all of the notes and coins lined up in order. I sometimes get confused it with 50 cents, $1
and $2 because 50 cents is a larger coin so I think it is the coin with the
largest value.
3. What helpful tips and advice did you
receive from the banker?
·
When adding count the notes first then the coins
·
If you have a large amount of money to count separate
the money into same piles and count each value then add all of the amount together
instead of adding 5cent + $50 + $1
·
When counting money you should always do a calculation
twice
4. What do you think your strengths were that
helped you to complete the worksheets?
I am a pretty good reader so I was able to
read all of the questions. I also have neat writing that helps keep the amounts
lined up which makes adding and subtracting each column easier.
5. What areas were your weaknesses in
completing the worksheets?
I sometimes have trouble carrying amounts
to the next column and make mistakes when tying amounts into the calculator.
6. Did you find collaborating with peers
assisted you to complete more questions and gain new knowledge on working with
money?
I liked the part of the lesson where we got
to help each other with the questions. I could find someone to help me with a
few questions and I was able to help some people as well which was great.
7. Did you find the money section of Mathletics
to be a good or bad revision activity?
I really liked this activity as a revision exercise.
It was also good that it is in colour so you can identify the coins and notes
by their colour. The questions were all similar which provided good practice.
Week 1
I have filled in K and W on the KWL chart below. It shows my
prior knowledge, what I learnt from my peers and what I want to learn about
money. After the first week of this unit I think I am going to enjoy learning
about money.
