Tom and William Talk About Capacity

We are always trying new things in Team 8. Today our task was to talk about our learning. 
A special thanks to Lachie who was filming for the first time too. I think they all did a pretty stellar job, don't you?

Baking Muffins/Cupcakes

Who knew maths could be so much fun!
Volume, Capacity and cooking. 
Lets make some muffins said Mrs Grant!
Yipee, said Team 8!
So here we are measuring, mixing, cooking and most importantly eating!   Yummo!
We ran out of Bananas so the lovely Ella, Sayuni and Ethan had to donate their banana from their lunch box! Sorry to their mummies!
Nayla, James and Mason were Mrs Grant helpers and helped with the dishes. Thank you!
And a huge sorry to all the parents for the kids who didn't eat all their lunches that day... those Muffins were HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Volume and Capacity in the Sandpit

Last Friday Team 8 went out to estimate, experiment and measure lots of different containers in the sandpit.
We used lots of different maths words like: more than, less than, full, half full, empty, nearly full, nearly empty.
Mrs Grant set us a challenge to try and estimate how many tablespoons different containers might hold. Team 8 had to work as teams to estimate and measure.
We are clever Mathematicians!










Next week we are going to make some Muffins!

Huff N Puffathon

Last Friday Team 8 had a blast running around the PTA set up track to raise money for Sunnyhills School.
Lots of us ran more than 10 laps. Go Team 8.
Mrs Grant even did a cartwheel on the track..Hehe!
