Fractions

Kia ora, in problem solving we are learning about proportions and ratios. Me and my buddy, Abbey solved this question. Keahn invited 35 guests to his birthday party, however only five sevenths of the guests were able to come. How many of the guests were able to attend? Here is our thinking.
This is our working out on a whiteboard!

Water Safety

Kia Ora, for two weeks now we have been doing swimming lessons at Pioneer. Today we started water safety, which is where you learn how to act if you fall off a boat and end up in the water. We learnt how to stay warm and stay together in the water. The best part was that we got to wear life jackets! Tomorrow our group is going to learn about boat safety. Here are some photos.
We are making our huddle.
