Making Sense of Maths language

Today in Maths we put on our detective hats and worked on decoding maths problems.

We know we have strengths in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Sometimes we come across a new word for one of these operations it can all get a bit confusing. We organised these 'new' words to match with the operations we thought they meant.









We then got into groups and tried to come up with our own definitions for each of the operations. Although confused at times we had lots of conversation to make sense of all these different words and we thought it could be helpful if we had something in the class to refer to when we get stuck!

Definitions coming together..
