1. Hi Mr Talarico,
   In maths What Worked Well for me was all the work we have done. I think we are mostly up to stranded and we have a pretty good route-en.

2. Hi Mr Talarico,
   What Worked Well in maths was when made our shape monster it was very fun Veronica helped me make it. His name was bolygon. Even Better If people wouldn’t give other three of the same equation on times tables test.

3. my favorite task this week was doing he shape monster that was so fun it worked well when I started to think what I was thinking about want I was going to make I made a robot. It would be better if we had more time to do it.

4. Hi,
   I have enjoyed maths these past few weeks. We have already learnt about Place Value and have started learning about shapes. In Place Value we learnt about expanded notation and different forms to wright a number like (standard form, expanded form, written form) We have also been learning about 2D (2 dimensional) shapes. We have learnt all about polygons and how many angles, sides and vertices they have. A polygon is a shape that has closed lines, straight lines and is 2D (2 dimensional). We also made a Shape Monster that is made out of polygons.

5. What work well that we all make our own polygon monster i so waiting to make my monster i got some help from Zac and i name my monster Zing knight but Zing for short. I was do my best to make him and i did all the steps. Even better that we should make a big city in 5st and put all monster on it and call the polygon city or different name and we put all our names in each side in small hand writing and make our class more awesome.

6. Hi Mr T!
   I loved doing the shape monster and learning all about polygons. I think that doing the description for our shape monster really helped me to identify the polygons i used to make my shape monster. Thanks!

7. Math is really fun and you learn a lot. But sometimes I get stuck on equations and I cant seem to find the answer. but other than that math is fun in class. The activity I liked most was the amazing math race. I wasn’t there for half of it but it was still really fun.

8. To my teachers Mr Talarico and Mrs Michalke
   I have enjoyed maths because we are learning about shapes that i have never heard of before so that means it is something new to me. My favourite part about maths was the The Maths Amazing Race because we got to cooperate with each other, everyone had a job and no one was left out. I had fun and so did my group i think we should have more races like this.

9. What worked well this week in maths was that we all were behaving and got our work done so we didn’t need to do it in task time. It would be even better if we hadn’t asked so many question and just listened to each other or the person who is talking. Over all we worked well and behaved when we needed to.

10. I really liked creating a shape monster it was really fun! I like how you put the instructions on CR8ATIVE LEARNERS so you did not have tell us all at once! It would be even better if we did not have internet problems,then again there is nothing we can do about that. I hope we have more fun stuff in maths this year!

11. What worked well in the 5ST Amazing Race was:
    1. We got to cooperate with other students on our table.
    2. Everyone was helping each other by forming a shape for someone to take a photo of.
    3. Everyone had a job to do so everyone didn’t argue.
    4. We didn’t complain about the shape.
    5. We all listened to each other’s ideas.
    Even Better if:
    1. We had a lot of time.
    2. There were a lot of bonus point activities.
    3. We had more space to form shapes.
    4. It was really calm in the room.
    5. Everyone had their own room.

12. Hi Mrs Michalke, Mr Talarico and the rest of the 5ST students,
    I am going to be telling you about our shape monster project we did over wednesday and tuesday! I think what worked well was I was listening in class when we were learning about polygons so it was easy to remember what each polygon was! Even better if I got to type more in my description!

13. Dear Mrs Michalke and Mr Talarico

    I have been happy in maths because it has been helping me a lot.
    I have achieved the goal of doing my 6x tables and 7x tables. I have learnt a lot of new shapes, like decagon, nonagon and heptagon. i also have learnt a new kind of shape, Polygons. Also i have enjoyed maths! 🙂

14. Dear Mrs Michalke and Mr Talarico

    Today we worked on our shape monsters. What worked well was that we got to use our knowledge on shapes to create and define our amazing monsters. I wish that we could maybe write a story about our monster.

    Kind Regards, Elias

15. I have enjoyed literacy because we have been learning about the strategies of CAFE! I also enjoyed writing my own narrative.

16. I loved Maths because we got to learn about parallels. I also got to achieve my best time for my 7 times tables.

17. To my teachers Mrs Michalke and Mr Talarico
    Today in maths we did a task about triangles and quadrilaterals What worked well about this task was that we had a partner to share our thoughts with and if our partners needed to ask a question we were there. It would have been even better if we could have played a game at the end of the session about triangles and quadrilaterals as a class.

18. Today i enjoyed maths because we got to make a little monster out of shapes and you could only use regular and irregular shapes. It was the best maths lesson ever from prep all the way to today

19. Today we learnt about different kind of 2D triangles. What worked well in today’s maths session was how the teamwork between me and Sam I found it easy to finish my work on time too. It would be even better if the class was a little quieter when working on the shape activity.

    -Gabby 🙂

20. I thought that today’s lesson was really fun because we learnt about scalene and all the other polygons. I loved learning about the quadrilateral shapes activity and the whole maths lesson!

21. I really enjoy most of our maths lessons and think most others would agree with me :O. One thing i think we should improve on is getting settled and not talking during the explanation so that we can get on with our task earlier and so that we can play the fun math games set for us if we Finnish earlier :). Also i love the little test we did today it was kinda fun and not to hard but not to easy.

22. Hello 5ST and teachers,

    In today’s maths lesson we learnt more about quadrilaterals and triangles I also learnt about what parallel lines look like.
    What worked well for me is how we have a fun activity to do but it also helped us expand our knowledge with different polygons, what they look like and what their names are.
    Even better if we can stay more focused on our work and that we can move to each classroom sensibly and quietly.

    -Isabella 🙂

23. Hi everyone, Today I think that maths was really fun because we did triangle games that involved scalene, right angel and Isosceles Triangles. When we did our second block of Maths I thought it was really good because we got to make our own shape monsters and we got to print and colour them.

24. When we did today’s activity and have to look at shapes and wright stuff about it what worked well was that how we just saw the stuff there and wrote about it easily even better if there was a bit more description about the shape on the website.

25. I liked today maths activity because it was fun to work with a partner and i enjoyed doing shapes
    What Worked Well? was that everyone was cooperating with each other and that no one argued and they enjoyed doing shapes
    Even Better if?
    There was more shapes to do and to make it more challenging.

26. LOVE MATHS
    I really like it worked well was we worked together even better if we worked a bit more quicker but love maths think it is amazing cant wait for so more lessons :):)

27. Today was so fun!!! I learnt all about triangles I loved the scalene it was my absolute favorite. I also learnt what a rhombus and trapezium was. It was awesome!!!

28. Dear Mrs Michalke Ireally liked this task but maybe we could have did a game at the end. The team work worked really well from Angela 5S

29. I love this task because now I know the different types for triangles!!!!!

30. Hello teachers!
    Today 5ST did a maths activity with triangles and quadrilaterals. The thing that worked well was that we got to work with partners and share our knowledge with them. It would be even better if there was a challenge task so if there are early finishers.

    Thank you Sydney 🙂

31. Hi Mrs Michlakle, Mr Talarico and 5ST,

    In Numeracy I have enjoyed listening to the faceless video man as he provided us with a video about what we are learning. I also liked learning about Place Value, Rounding. I also like how we are working on shapes.

    -Amelia

32. Well, we love having you in Maths too Alessia!

33. I love Maths especially doing it with Mr Talarico and Mrs Michalke!!!!!!!!!!!!

34. Hi everyone!
    If everyone loves maths then I guess you did a great job Mrs Thompson! Maths is always different but fun all the same. I still learn lots of strategies by playing games or solving fun problems (or at least they’re fun to me).

    Francis 🙂
    P.S. Plus=+ Minus=- Multiply=* Division=/ Equals== on the calculator.

35. I love all the different ways we get to learn in maths, it’s (I hate to admit this) really fun! I can’t believe that maths is fun, I have always hated maths.

37. Mrs M, tell me 100 words that doesn’t have a, b or c in them. Don’t cheat. Reply when you got the answer.

38. I really enjoyed maths like how we had to do the perimeter and polygons. I really liked it. Ok bye 🙂

39. Ok Joel lets see if we can get that happening next Term. That would be Mrs T and Mrs M replying to you.

40. Hello teachers,
    I was thinking if we good do a live mathaletics game against 5T vs. 5S. I think we should do it. Please reply and that means you Mrs T and Mrs M. 🙂

41. We won’t know until we write the letters to Michael to persuade him.

42. To Mrs Thompson,
    Is Michael letting you use his car. I hope so!
