New Math Strategy

This is a new strategy I learnt during Math.

144 ÷ 2 = 72 (half)

72 ÷ 6 = 12

72 ÷ 6 = 12

12 + 12 = 24

The problem was "144 ÷ 2 =" so you have to half 144 and that makes 72, then you divide 72 by 6, twice. 72 ÷ 6 = 12 and since you divide it twice, you get 12 twice too. So add 12 + 12 and the answer is 24.

That is a new strategy I learnt. I hope you understood the strategy and how I explained it. 

Reflection from math

When we were on the mat with Mrs Parker (Our teacher) we did maths and we used paper to make fractions. We folded them into halves and quarters, way more till 32 squares. I enjoyed folding the paper and doing it as a group.
