This is how you reference a book in APA format.

Locating And Predicting Faces

Today for maths I learnt about how many faces are on a shape. I estimated that the top shape would have 6 triangle faces and 1 hexagon face, also I estimated that the bottom shape would have 4 faces. I was right both times. I also learnt that it is not about the faces you can see because there can be some faces that you can't see.

Part Adder

Today Shannon and I worked a two digit plus another two digit number using part adder.  We figured out that both of the strategies make 97.

The first strategy is compensating because we added a number and then took away that number.

The second strategy is doubling because we added 30 and another 30.
