The Great Wall of China was built over 2000 years ago,and it was built by Qin Shi Huangdi,the first emperor of China during the Qin Dynasty.

Alsothe Great Wall of China is 8 metres high on the highest point of the Wall.

It is the longest building in the world and it is a really famous building.

Also it is a historical place in Beijing.

It takes around 18 months to walk the Great Wall of China because of its length.

I use maths in real life when my mum makes me and my two brothers pizza, so I say to my mum yo have to cut it into thirds.

Another time when I use maths in real life is when I am in the shop and I have to subtract the amount I am spending so I can work out how much change I have.

Finally I use maths in real life when I am in the house and I have to use my knowledge to work out maths problems my mum give me to get better at math than I already was.

You can use maths in real life when baking.
You can use maths when you need to know the 
time.

Every day after school I cook my own dinner. I used maths in real life like when I cooked a banana cake I Used kilograms and millilitres. At the holiday I needed to measure my window because I needed to put in new ones also I needed measure my new windows so the window measure the same length.

When I played a football tournament we had to count up the scores we got to semi finals we got beaten to nill.

I used maths in real life when I went on holiday and bought a can of custard and a can of Diet Coke .

I used Maths in real life when I went to Great Yarmouth and bought a bracelet out of a sea side gift shop.

I used Maths in real life when I went to the shop to buy a Harry Potter figure and it cost five pounds.

I used Maths in real life when I got my mum to go to new look why I was at my friends house I had to pay her back.

It was half term last week and even though I wasn’t at school, I still used my Maths skills! I went to the shop to get my dad and me some drinks because we were tidying at the weekend with my dad. It cost 75p each and I got crisps and they cost £1.00 each so it cost me a total of £2.50. I had £3.50 on me so I knew I had enough money.

After more tidying my dad wanted more drinks so we went back to the shops. My dad got a 65p drink and £1.00 crisps and I got a £1.00 drink and a £1.00 crisps then went back home and had a sit down. In total for the whole day I spent 75p+75p+£1.00+65p+£1.00+£1.00+£1.00=£6.15

During the May holiday ,I went on holiday 3 hours from here but  we had a caravan on the back of our car so it took longer .I had to use my maths skills to see how much longer it would take.  An extra 30minutes so we left at 3:30pm-6:30pm we arrived.

Another time I had to use my maths skills ,was when I had £10 . I bought a figet cube for £3 and a charm for £5 so that left me with £2 . That I spent it on 2 bows that were £1 each and that was all of my money GONE!

By using my Maths skills I could wrk out how much money I had left.

Last week, it was half term and I Used my maths skills at home To Make A Pizza.

1. I had to use measuring skills to measure my ingredients.

2.I had to read a scale to check the oven was on at the correct temperature.

3.I had use my time skills to check on the microwave clock how long the pizza was in the oven for.

4.I put the pizza in at 3:30pm, it was in the oven for 20 minutes which meant I took the pizza out at 3:50pm.

5.I Used my fractions knowledge and cut it in to quarters

6.Mission complete!

Last week was half term and I made Oreo cakes .

The maths skills I used were my measuring skills to help me make the cake properly. I had to read the scale and measure out the butter, sugar and flour.

I cooked the cupcakes in the oven for 15 minutes and left them in for an extra 5 minutes to cook more better.  The cupcakes were so much tastier after the extra 5 minutes. I worked out if I put them in the oven at 3:00pm. I needed to take them out at 3:20pm, yum.

I had a pizza and I put it in the oven at 6:00 clock.I took it out at 7:00 clock. I waited for an hour for my pizza to cook.

The maths skills I used were telling the time.
