Maths with Bina.

                                                      Maths with Bina 

Last Thursday in the morning Mrs Moore made random groups. The first group she called out my name so it was on the list. All the others had to finish there Maths activities. When she said my name I had to go with my group to the mat.

 

The group that was on the mat they were working with a lady could Bina. She was a mathematician. So after that we had to read a problem that was called Toothpick squares.

We had to solve the problem with any group but Mrs Moore had to choose I was with Nejwa and Nikola so we did when we were working we could not understand the problem.

So since we did not understand we went to the mat and work altogether again just so every one under stands the problem.

So when we were talking about the problem we went back  and tried to do what Bina did.But when we did it every body made a mistake and every body thought that this is hard. 

So when it was hard every body did a big mistake it was the squares when Bina said how many tooth picks is in 2 squares and most of the group said that there is 8 tooth picks in 2 squares but actually Bina said it was actually 7 toothpicks.

The thing we did wrong was the squares and also solving the problem the problem was we were suppose to say 9 x 4=36.
