Numerator & Denominator

LI: Share Equally into groups using our times tables.

In this DLO it explains what the Numerator and the Denominator are and it also shows how this connects or links up with our times tables. so if we have a fraction for example 1/2 and we have the number 24. We then put divide the number and we have to find out how much is in each pile so if it's.

12 then it is 1/2 of 24 is 12 and if  we have a times table then it would be 2 x 12 = 24 because we have 2 groups with 12 inside equally and the hole amount of sticks we have is 24.

African Drumming

LI: to learn African Drumming

Johnny from Rhythm Interactive taught us four rhythms on the djembe drum. Johnny taught us by singing and clapping the rhythms for us to copy. One of the call and return tunes was ''I like Chocolate Cake'' , ''so do I''  Johnny teaches a message to children that message was that together we can make a change.     

Johnny's lesson was very interesting because I have learnt about this before and I also learnt some new things as well something new that I learnt were the new rhythms on the drums and I learnt four of them and I really enjoyed it because I was doing something that I have done before and I was doing it again it was very fun.

Basic Fact

LI: SHare equally into groups using our times tables.

We are learning how to write a fact and how to also use times tables and division we also had to explain how this links or relates to fractions. this slide deck explain one times tables for example 5 x 4 = 20 so that just means there are 5 groups that have four things inside equally.

and then we also had to explain division it were you share things out evenly.
