Potions - Innovate

We made milkshakes this week as part of the innovate stage of our Potions topic. 

We had to do market research to decide what potion would make a good business. Our class decided that milkshakes would be the best potion that would make us the most money.

We then had to decide what flavour milkshakes our group would make.  Each group made different flavours. 

Each group had to use Tesco direct to price up all the ingredients. The groups worked on a pricing strategy, factoring in how much the ingredients cost. 

We put together Dragons Den Pitches to persuade Mr Hughes to invest in our companies. If we were successful then we would order the food and make the milkshakes.

Here we are making and drinking our milkshakes.

Class 6 - Out and About

Gethin won a competition to be ball boy for Cardiff City in their game against Fulham on Saturday.

He said the atmosphere was really loud. It was an awesome game to be chosen because Cardiff went back to playing in blue for the first time in 2years.

Abacus - N7 - Proper and Improper Fractions

Proper fractions are when there is a smaller number on top. Improper fractions are when are when there is a smaller number on top. If a fraction is a inproper fraction you change it into a mixed number for example  5/2=2 1/2 a fraction number  on the bottom is always the same.

Abacus - N6 Multiplication and Division

Amelia and Maddie, Class Blog Update:

8x24=192

192/8=24

5x29=145

145/5=29

We found this out  by swapping the numbers around. You can either put 24 or 8 in the middle of a division. In divisions,if you put 8 in the middle the answer is 24 if you put 24 in the middle the answer is 8. In divisions the first number is always the biggest number. For multiplying the answer of the sum is always the start of the divisions. It is harder to do a division if you haven't got a multiplication for it.

You can turn a dividing sum into a multiplication sum by swapping the numbers around and you can turn a multiplying sum into a division sum. 

These are some questions from our maths text book.

6x33=198 

198/6=__

_x14=98

98/7=__

14x11=154

How many sets of 14 in 154?
