Exponents / Powers

Today for maths, we all learnt about how to solve exponent (Powers) problems. Our challenge for today was to solve 18 problems based on our topic of exponents. This task had its ups and downs, although we all managed to find the answers and solutions. Next came creating a DLO that showed how to solve three different problems of the 18. To create this DLO I worked with Jack, and we had a lot of fun working, and creating together. In the end, we chose to make our DLO out of these problems. 73 (7 to the power of 3), 142 (14 to the power of 2), and 83 (8 to the power of 3).

Today for maths we had to find out percentages. In pairs Oh Hsen and I had to solve the problems we were given and make a DLO on it. Ms Kirkpatrick showed us how to use the formula to solve our problems. I learnt that the population of oceania is 31 million.
