__ 4 Operations   __ I recon having the 4 operations is a great idea because for some people that need a little bit of help they have a group to go to instead of have to understand really hard stuff that really smart people would know and that really smart people wouldn’t have to go in to a group that is too easy for them. __ Times Tables  __ I recon have the times tables groups is a really great idea because you can actually choose where you want to go, where you think that you should go. I am in Jodie’s group and I know that I belong there because I sometimes have trouble understanding math’s. I really like the way Jodie helps us learn our times tables, how she dose it is she gets these cards of some sort of this lean your times tables site and print them on a card, on the card there is a kind of short story about the times table you are leaning like say if I was doing 3x9. 3x9 in the story is said as: Sign x Tree. The reason it is that way is because 9 and sign match and tree and 3 match too. __ Pizza Math’s  __ In pizza math’s we had to draw a circle using a ruler and a gray lead. What we did was we drew a dot in the middle of a piece of the page and then we choose a size that we wanted, after choosing the size we lined the ruler up with the dot on 0. Then with the number that we choose we used the gray lead to draw a tiny dot on it, after doing that started adding different things on to it. __ Test cricket __ In our sketch books we started doing something called test cricket with test cricket you have to roll two dice and whatever the dice land on that’s the number you right in your sketch book. The thing with the rolling the dice is that you can’t get a five or else you are out.
