Do now maths

Today, I was doing some maths about the number 36.

All I have to do is to answer the questions, and then explain it in a way people can understand.


Magic numbers

36

  1. Even or odd number= It is an even number because 18 + 18 = 36


  1. Number before= The number before 36 is 35

because you got to count like 30, 31, 32, 33, 35, 36.


  1. Number after= The number after 36 is 37

because you got to count like 36, 37, 38, 39, 40.


  1. In words= Thirty - six because 30 is spelled T-h-i-r-t-y and 6 is spelled s-i-x


  1. Number in Place value

 

      H

T

0

      0

        3

      6


30 is in the tens because it is 3 groups of ten, and 6 is in ones because it is 6 groups of 1


36 + 36 = 74

Shared dictation activity

Text A                                

It’s a clear  auckland night. The grass is spongy. 

Everything’s still. The boy creeps outside, 

Lies on his back, and searches the sky. Staring at the moon  , 

he dreams of flying into space.


Fast-forward thirty years to Huston, Texas. Mana Vautier says good bye  


to his family and heads to work. As an aerospace engineer at NASA National Aeronautics and Space Administration , he is living his dream. 

NASA is the largest space agency in the world. It was set up by the United States government to explore space and learn about the universe. 

Born in Auckland and of Te Arawa, Ngāi Tahu, Ngāti Kahungunu, and Ngāti Raukawa descent, Mana always knew he wanted to explore space. But how did a star-gazing boy from Auckland end up working for NASA?

 

I always knew I wanted to work as an astronaut but I had no idea how to make it happen.
