Our Chosen Problem

Problem 1We are recreating the junior school library. It

needs to house 1,000,000 books that are on

average about the same with as an Oxforddictionary. How many meters of shelving will

we need?


4/23

Our PlanWe will measure how wide the oxford dictionary is. Then, we will divide it

with a million. Lastly, we will check it with a calculator and show it to Ms.Angela.


5/23

Working out the answer

1 Oxford dictionary= 5 cms

10 oxford dictionaries= 50 cms

100 oxford dictionaries= 5 M

1,000 oxford dictionaries= 50 M10,000 oxford dictionaries= 500 M

100,000 oxford dictionaries= 5,000 M

1,000,000 oxford dictionaries= 50,000 M


6/23

Our Solution!

The answer for this question is 50,000 M.

RE FL EC T Comment

Did I know enough

about 1,000,000 to

solve this problem?

RE The problem was too easy once we measured the dictionary.

Did understanding how

a numbers place is

connected to its value

or size help me to solve

the problem?

FL We knew how to do this roughly in the problem.

What strategies did Iuse? Explain

(division,

multiplication,

subtraction, factors,

multiples, etc)

Xs10s

The dictionary is 5cms wide. If we times it with 10s, it will beeasier.

1. Did we create a good plan and change it whenneeded?

2. Did we organise for different people to help

or complete different tasks?

5. How did I use familiar landmarks (or groups of numbers) to solve the problem?

How did I check my estimations?

How did I check my calculations?
