In maths today I completed a sheet about finding the area of different shapes and the circumference (perimeter) of a circle. We had to learn about the different formulas to get to the answer. Here are the formulas:
A = LxW
V = LxWxH
C = π x D
Area of a circle = π x r x r/ π x r2
π = 3.142
When I first learnt these formulas I found it quite hard to learn and kept getting confused which was which. Now that I have learnt them though, I can remember what one is which and know what each one is.
I could use these formulas if I was in a job that needed to work out different areas or what I could do with a particular area. These would be helpful in a sort of construction job.
I feel very happy with myself that I now know all of these formulas because I can use them if I have to. I am very proud of my maths progress at the moment.

To support my learning I ask you to comment as follows:
1. Something positive - Begin with a greeting. Talk about something you like about what I have shared.
2. Thoughtful - A comment that will mean something to me to let me know you read/watched or listened to what I had to say. - use any language.
3. Something helpful - Give me some ideas for next time or ask me a question.
Encourage me to make another post

You should be very proud of yourself Caitlyn. Those are some pretty tricky formulas to remember! I love the way you have thought about practical ways you can use these formulas in everyday life. What kind of things have you worked out the area, volume and circumference of ?
