IALT: Add and subtract decimals
For Maths today I have been adding and subtracting decimals, today for maths I also learnt the meaning of the Equal sign(=).
here are some examples:
1) 25.18
- 12.09
2) 133.89
- 76.24
3) 12.25
+ 9.23
4) 5 ones + 4 tenths= (or is the same as) 4 ones + 14 tenths
I actually found that with most decimal numbers subtracting them was challenging, I would always make mistakes but then I would find a way to correct my mistakes. I really enjoyed working with Stephney (Who is my Maths buddie). We didnt understand how 5 ones + 4 tenths is the same as 4 ones and 14 tenths. Later on I found a way of understanding how to solve this same equation.
I've learnt alot in this Maths session, I learnt the meaning of the Equal sign(=) and also learnt how to add and subtract decimals (although I already knew how to). I enjoyed working with my classmates to solve an equation and I think that my next step is to read and understand the problem properly before solving out the answer.
