perimeter

I am proud of my learning because I learnt lots of new things.
Totara Whanau are learning about perimeter. Perimeter is the out side of a shape. What we are doing is drawing a rectangle then picking a number for the bottom and the top of the rectangle then picking a number for the tow sides. For the top and bottom for example:

I might put 467 and for the sides I might put 45 then we had to add the numbers up but I had to show my thinking because the teachers are clever but they can't see inside your head. We also did something called the splits when we split the  numbers into the hundreds tens and ones. Next time I think I could try adding up bigger numbers.
