Mystical Maths

WALT: To answer questions using a spaced out strategy.
This week for maths we had to answer questions using a spaced out strategy.   It was quite easy to do because the questions were easy.  I answered the questions on google drawings and took a screenshot of it.
Can you tell me other strategy's?

734-416

700+30+4  minus

400+10+6

= 3     2    2

734-416= 322

Old school method for maths

WALT:  To answer questions using a old school method.
Today in maths we had to answer questions using a strategy that carries the one.    It was hard because the questions were long.  I did it on google drawings and I took a screenshot of it.   This is how you do the strategy . So you put the highest number at the top ( in this case 5383) and the low number at the bottom. Then you add. 3+8=11. That is bigger than 10 so you need to put the 1 underneath the 3 and the 8 and put the 1 above. Then add the next numbers and plus 1. Then add the next 1, carry the 1 and keep doing it. Then you have the answer!
Do you know other strategy's?  

John 15:1

WALT:  To make a google drawing about John 15:1.  
Today we had to make a google drawing about John 15:1.  I worked with my friend.  She did the farmer and I did the vines and the grapes.  It was easy to make because all I did was the vines and grapes.  I made it on  a google drawing and I took a screenshot of it.  Can you tell me some verses from the new testament?

God our creator

W.A.L.T. Name an image of God from the Bible and explain what it tells people about God: OLD TESTAMENT

In RE we had to read some of the OLD TESTAMENT. In The OLD TESTAMENT it said that God was multiple things.
These are that things he was. What do you think God is?

Punctuation

WALT: To fix punctuation.
In Writing we had to  fix punctuation mistakes in a paragraph.   Mr Gray made mistakes on purpose so we could fix them.   It was really easy to do.   I made the corrections in red so you know what I did.   What do you know about punctuation?

It was a freezing cold day. It had been snowing all night in christchurch.Alfred and I went outside to play in the fresh snow. We hadn’t seen this much snow since we went skiing in queenstown last year! Uncle Joe was right when he said that we would wake up this morning and see white. Alfred and I decided to make a snowman in the garden. He started to roll a huge ball for the body, whilst I worked on the head. Then we ran inside and asked mum for a carrot for the nose. We then found pebbles for the eyes and mouth and  we called our snowman Nick. 


Being a friend

WALT: To explain how to be a good friend.
In Reading we had to make a DLO about being a good friend.  My DLO has animals saying things about being a good friend.    It was easy because I already knew what to write.  I made it on google drawings and I took a screenshot of it.  What do you think makes a good friend?

Today we had to look at some Samoan Tapa and choose our favourite.
It was really hard to choose because they were all wonderful and amazing, but I choose this one.   I chose it  because I really like flowers and this one was really beautiful.  This is a link to were I got the picture. https://www.tapapacifica.com/samoan-siapo-tapa-cloths.html .  I took a screenshot of the Tapa and inserted it here.  Do you know anything about Samoan Tapa?   If you do what do you know?   Can you please comment on this post and tell me your favourite off the site where I got my picture?



Maths

WALT: To work out a question using a different strategy.  [Other than using number lines]
Today in maths we had to work out a question without using a number line.  Instead we used a different strategy.  It was hard because I was actually was doing a different strategy for the first three questions.   I did another question in the right strategy and I took a photo of it.  I inserted the photo in here.   Do you have a strategy you like using to help you?  If you do what is it?

Punctuation

WALT: To make a DLO [Digital Learning Object]  about punctuation.
Today in Writing we had to make a DLO [Digital Learning Object] about punctuation.  I worked together with Kate.   I liked making the animals say things.  It was hard because sometimes I would write things that Kate was going to write.  I did the ones in a black speech bubble with the green writing.  We did it on a Google drawing and I took a screenshot of it.  Do you write with lots of punctuation?  If you do what types of punctuation do you use?
