We have been learning about mapping and coordinates. We have been working in a helping circle so that we can learn from each other and help each other out. We are learning about how to discuss mathematical ideas in a respectful way.
Some of our discussion...
James and Daisy: We thought it looked like battleships.
Kate: When finding coordinates you need to crawl before you fly!
Charlotte: When finding coordinates you need to crawl before you climb.
Griffin: The map is 11 by 14 or 11 X 14. It is a multiplication grid.
Rim: The area is the inside space.
Lily: Times what is on the side and what is on top (row and column).
Hadley: This is a locating map. For example, " I want to meet my friend at (J, 8) I am at (A, 2). I need to meet up with him by following directions.
We are learning from each other!
Coordinate maps
We drew a map with squares on it (a grid). We drew pictures on it like UFOs, pigs, fences or anything you wanted. We were coordinating for example, the pig is (A, 7).
