I am a Year 7 student in the Uru MÄnuka Cluster. This is a place where I will share my learning. Please note that some of it will not be complete, it will be my first drafts. Remember to be positive, thoughtful and helpful when you leave me a comment.
Excellent thinking Connor! You used an array... and groups of repeated addition. As well as your doubles and triples. Your addition is clear and your mathematical strategies and thinking is correct! Top marks! We can double check this strategy to make sure the answer is correct by using a multiplication strategy. You could time 17 x 10 = 170 and then 17 x 6 which is 60 + 42 = 102 Then add 170 to 102 ... ... is the answer still 272?
To support my learning I ask you to comment as follows: 1. Something positive - something you like about what I have shared. 2. Thoughtful - A sentence to let us know you actually read/watched or listened to what I had to say 3. Something helpful - how have you connected with my learning? Give me some ideas for next time or ask me a question.
