Today in mathβs we have been learning about number sequences we had to spot the rule and then complete the number sequences. One group today had a sheet and they had to complete the number sequence and write the secret code E.G NN =LN +4 and NN means next number and LN means last number. The other group were looking at harder patterns with shapes and they had to find the next term in the sequence and write the rule. Some of us were looking at negative numbers and decimals. Before we started Miss Martindale showed us some number sequences and we had to write the code. We also learnt about ascending and descending. Ascending means the sequence goes up and descending means it goes down.

I think i have learnt number sequences and i am now more confident than before when we done it. I think this is a very intresting and fun lesson. I have learnt a lot in already one lesson.

Here I’ve got some info the five big animals in south africa…
South Africa’s “Big Five”
Buffalo
Buffalo are extremely large, ox-like animals. Standing approximately 65 inches at the shoulder, adult males have a mass of up to 1760 pounds and females weigh up to 1650 pounds. To support the large body, the legs are very heavy. Front hooves are larger than the hind because of the extra mass they get.
Elephant
The African Elephant is the largest living land mammal, one of the most impressive animals on earth. The Elephant’s muscular trunk serves as a nose, hand, extra foot, signaling device and a tool for gathering food, siphoning water, dusting, digging and a variety of other functions.
Leopard
The most secretive and elusive of the large carnivores, the leopard is also the shrewdest. Pound for pound, it is the strongest climber of the larger cats and is capable of killing prey far larger than itself. The coloring of the leopard varies from white to bright golden brown, spotted with black spots and rosettes.
Lion
Lions are the second largest members of the feline family in the world. Lion are tan in colour and have a slightly white under-body, with a tuft of black hair at the end of their tails. Most cat species live a fundamentally solitary existence, but the lion is an exception. It has developed a social system based on teamwork.
Rhinoceros
The rhinoceros is a large, primitive looking mammal that in fact dates from the Miocene era millions of years ago. In recent decades rhinos have been relentlessly hunted to the point of near extinction. Since 1970 the world rhino population has declined by 90 percent, with five species remaining in the world today…

I am confident on number sequences. Before when i started i was a little un sure on negative numbers. ( numbers below 0)
Aiza said,
July 1, 2011 @ 7:56 pm
me to zara i agree with you:-}
Zara said,

I feel more confident on number sequences than i was yesterday. I was not quite sure on negative numbers now i am confident.
Aiza said,
July 2, 2011 @ 9:07 am
yeah zara me to i am confident to i loved this lesson sometimes i practise at home π

Me too Bismah, I do feel a bit more confident on number sequences becasue Miss Martindale helped us. I’ve really enjoyed dong this so far in the week because it is new to me.
karolina said,
June 28, 2011 @ 7:20 pm
I am now really conident because firat time we done it it was quit tricky for me. Also i think other people are more confident than the first tim we done it. I think this is a great unit to focus on.
karolina said,
June 28, 2011 @ 7:20 pm
I think every one is getting it and they are more confident.
Aiza said,
July 2, 2011 @ 9:13 am
i think so to karolina
Bismah said,

I really enjoy looking at number sequences and i also like sorting them out. I thik this is a great lesson.

I really enjoy learning about this. I think it is fab. i love this lesson it is great.
Aiza said,

me to karolina it is just fab i love it its an great lesson;-)
karolina said,
June 29, 2011 @ 12:22 pm
Miss Martindale i think i good idea would be to gives us on our challenge at the endachallenging question and see if we get it right using diffrent skills like +, -, divide, x
Aiza said,
July 2, 2011 @ 9:18 am
I think thats an great idea karolina fab π
i agree with you
karolina said,
June 29, 2011 @ 12:23 pm
I thinkit would be a good idea to challenge us.
karolina said,
June 29, 2011 @ 12:26 pm

i think it was fantastic to karolina and zara it was super:-)
karolina said,
June 29, 2011 @ 3:06 pm
I really love this lesson can any one solve this question
-10,-7,-4
add the next 3 numbers on.
usman said,
June 29, 2011 @ 4:19 pm
The next 3 numbers are -1, 2, 5 and the rule is NN=LN +3.What about this one -12, -16, -20 and the next 3 numbers.
karolina said,

Miss Martindale i think you have chose a really good topic in maths i really enjoy it.

I am so glad you have enjoyed numeracy this week- I like finding the rule for number sequences too! Miss Martindale
Bismah said,
June 30, 2011 @ 9:15 am
I agree Karolina. This is a really good topic!
Aiza said,
July 2, 2011 @ 9:25 am
it is a good topic bismah and karolina it is just a fantastic and super;-);-) π π
usman said,
June 29, 2011 @ 4:15 pm
I was a bit stuck on maths but after with help I knew what to do. Now I find it quite easy.
karolina said,
June 29, 2011 @ 5:30 pm
Usman you are right that was the same with me.
karolina said,
June 29, 2011 @ 5:34 pm
-24,-28,-32
NN=LN-4 that is the sequence and the code.
usman said,
June 29, 2011 @ 7:40 pm
correct Karolina you are right.
Aiza said,
July 1, 2011 @ 7:54 pm
correct well done karolina super π
year5atbearwood said,
June 29, 2011 @ 8:04 pm
Karolina and Usman- I think it is a brilliant idea to set your own sequences here for others to solve. Well done! Miss Martindale.
karolina said,
June 30, 2011 @ 8:22 am
Thnk you Miss Marindale i think when people give me sequences now i am getting more confident with my work.
Bismah said,
June 30, 2011 @ 9:03 am
Yes Karolina i am geting more confident as well.
Bismah said,
June 30, 2011 @ 9:03 am
I really enjoy working out the sequences.
Bismah said,
June 30, 2011 @ 9:13 am
I think that this weeks numeracy has been really,really fun.
Aiza said,
July 1, 2011 @ 7:51 pm
i think to bismah!!!!!
i agree with you
Bismah said,
June 30, 2011 @ 9:16 am
When this weeks over I want to do number sequences again!
Aiza said,
July 1, 2011 @ 7:53 pm
i feel like it to bismah i love doing number sequences you can do some at home and practise could’t you
Zara said,
July 1, 2011 @ 4:43 pm
i am really confident!!!!! can you try this number sequence?
-24, -21, -18 can you work out the next numbers and the code!!!!
Aiza said,
July 1, 2011 @ 7:50 pm
i think i have learnt something new i am more confident at it i hope other people or?
Aiza said,
July 2, 2011 @ 9:09 am
i am really confident at using this method i am perfect at this!!!!!!!!!!:-)
