On October 11 Adon Ishak gave the class a free day for math games. Srichhimer22 and I didn’t have any game to play so we made up our own. The goal of the game is to get the whole deck. I can be played with how many people like but the more people the harder because it is more numbers to multiply.

Rules: You have to put your card down on three. NO copying. You have to put the writing utensil down when you have the answer. You have to multiply all the numbers.

What you need: One deck of cards. Writing utensil. Scrap piece of paper or whiteboard.

How to play: One person deals out the deck, each player on the count of three puts down a card, now all players race to multiply and get the answer. When you find it you have to put the pen, pencil or marker down and if you get the answer correct you get the cards.

Check out Srichhimer22’s blog about the game.

1. Here is the word problem my partner and I solved:          Carlos can throw a ball 14 yards. His friend Raul can throw 3/7 of that distance. Is Raul’s throw longer or shorter than 14 yards? How do you know? How far did Raul throw?
2. Here is a picture of my visual that represents the problem:
3. 
4. Here is my equation(s) with a variable to represent the unknown amount:😡
5. 14/7=2 (so 2 lines per 1/7)
6. 3×2=6 So it is at the 6-yard point)
7. When predicting my answer, I know my answer will be smaller or larger because…
8. smaller because it is dividing instead of multiplying because we are dealing with fractions
9. 
10. Here is a picture of the work I did to solve the problem:
11. My answer and label are…
12. 6 yards

This week, we worked on coding Chanukah Cards. Below you will see my creation and what I thought was comfortable and challenging when doing this assignment.

Here is my card: <upload card here>

What I thought was comfortable about this activity:
I thought making the actual card was comfortable because this was not my first time on scratch and I knew what I was doing.

What I thought was challenging about this activity:

Something I thought was challenging about this activity was explaining what each thing did on the document. This was difficult for me because sometimes it is hard to put stuff that you understand in your mind on paper.
