Maths Assessment

WALT: Find Fractions, Decimals and Percentages
Maths Assessment Task 
Maths Assessment Task Answers
Problem Solving Activity
Maths IXL Screenshots
Something I learnt in this maths goal was to use multiplication to solve percentages.
Something I found challenging in this maths goal was the Use Multiplication and Division to estimate and solve fractions because estimating is more challenging then putting the actual answer in.

Using a range of multiplicative strategies

In Maths we have been learning to use a range of multiplicative strategies when operating with whole numbers.




The strategies we have been learning are:


- Estimate the reasonableness of large problems like 1 788 – 891. Could 497 be right?
- Use multiplication to solve addition and subtraction problems eg.
  64 – 48 = as (8 x 8) – (6 x 8) = 2 x 8= 16
- Use doubling / halving, trebling/ thirding and adjusting to solve multiplication problems,
 eg.  12 x 50 solved as 4 x 150= 600
- Use an algorithm to solve multiplication problems.
- Solve problems using simple cube numbers .
- Use an algorithm to solve division problems.
- Use standard written form of addition.


Here is a link to my Multiplicative Strategies Assessment which shows that I know why and how I use particular strategies. This doc also has screenshots to show which IXL activities I have completed as part of my learning.



My next step in my Maths Learning is to remember all the strategies and using them to help me figure other maths problems.

Know Square Numbers To 100 And The Matching Square Roots

WALT know square numbers to 100 and the matching square roots.
I completed the two maths activities on IXL and they are the square roots of perfect squares and write multiplication expressions using exponents.

What might the missing numbers be?

WALT solve number problems
I knew 2500 plus 2500 equals 5000 because I know that 25 plus 25 equals 50
So I would use the same skill for 2500 plus 2500 equals 5000
Another way you could do it is 2000 plus 3000 or 3500 plus1500 equals the same thing.
