My Basic Facts for week 2!

This week was the first week we started to do our "basic facts" for 2020. Last year, I was working on stage 5 and had 6 for my basic facts. I wasn't doing good at both of them and I wouldn't do 6 a week like I was supposed to, I would only do like 3 every 2 weeks. At the end of last year I tried stage 7, and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, the things I struggled on for it, I worked through and now, even doing timed I am getting scores I can be proud of. Some of the sums on Prototec Basic Facts Level 7 consist of Multiplication, Division, Converting Fractions, Percentages and Decimals and also Square roots and factors. I am doing well for the timed test as well. I enjoy seeing my score go up everyday, it sometimes is a little hard on timed but I get better every time right? I have nothing I would do differently about my Basic Facts! Here are some of my tests:

I hope one day this year to be doing level 8!

What I learnt this week: Maths.

This week at school I learnt how to do something like: 3/7 of 63 = 27. How do you work this out?
Divide 7 by 63: 63 ÷ 7 = 9.
Your answer is nine. Now, times your answer by the numerator.
Times 9 by 3: 9 x 3 = 27.
That's your answer. 27. Now, another.
5/6 of 42 = 35. Like last time, how many 6's go into 42. We all know that's 7. Another way you could work that out is: 6 x _ = 42. That's 7.
After you work that out, times your answer by the numerator
Times 7 by 5. 7 x 5 = 35. There's your answer.
