Multi-step math word problems

For this task, we had to do 1 Math word problems a day. Remember Ruma Rima, use what you know to solve the problems. When working through these problems try to see how many different strategies you use to can solve them. This will add more challenge and develop your mathematical thinking. Looking forward to hearing all the different strategies you used to work these out. For each word problem, write down the Equation (E), Working out (W.0), and the Answer (A). The problems may involve adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing. I liked doing this because we could try.

Mapere planting

W.A.L.T Write about our Mapere planting experience 

Today rooms 5, 7, and 11 walked to Mapere to plant Spinifex and Flax. We went to Mapere to try and help our environment and the dune restoration program. We planted Spinifex to stop erosion. We also got put into 12 groups, and I was the group leader for group 3. After we got put into our groups we got to go down to the beach (Ahipara beach) and plant some plants. When all of the plants were planted we got to go have some sausage sizzles. While we were eating they told us how many plants we all planted and the total of our plants altogether was 750. My favourite thing I did at Mapere was sitting down and relaxing after we planted our plants.
