I'll need to gather off each of you some more evidence towards 26623 today. Yesterday we did some fraction work - I posted three possible questions about NCEA credits and fractions with those yesterday. Here are some other situations that you could use...
Donation To Charity. Lots of people like to give a fraction of their pay/pocket money to charity. You could do a page on where your money comes from (that can be evidence of adding). Then you can calculate a fraction that you could give away (like giving away 1/12th to the SPCA).
You can take out one interval and see how many people are buying food from the canteen. Then you can work out what fraction of them a buying a certain item (like a pie).
Budget For Shopping.
You can take your family shopping receipt and work out what fraction of the bill goes to things like fruit or meat or treats or toiletries etc.
Again all of these need to be personalised to your own experiences and you'll need to have these each on their own piece of paper.
Do ask me questions and for help - I'm here to guide you through.
Great to see the progress of most of you - I've a summary document to show you all where you are at heading towards the credits.
