Narrative Writing

Today we were focusing around narratives writing because next term in week 3 we will be writing about narratives. We used the narrative criteria. The 1st sentence is about who the main character is. Then the 2nd is about where he/she lives. The 3rd is about sentence describes the characters talent. The 4th sentence is about the problem. The 5th  sentence is about how the character felt and then the last sentence is about how the problem is solved. I worked collaboratively with Javeylor and Evelyn. I think we will do really well and good in our writing assessments. 

Maths / QUIZIZZ

We played a game called quizziz. We played against each other including the teacher's. It was really interesting because we were practising our basic facts and our time's tables.

If you would llike to play this game you have to make your own and then play against other's.

...Here is a link to the game...

Last week on Friday we meet an amazing funny person named Stig Wemyss. Stig Wemyss is an voice artist he reads Andy Griffins books. He talked about the borrow box. The barrow box is an digital website. He really hooked us in with his humour. He gave everyone a little green poster and then he signed it. He has a website www.stig.com. He seemed really cool and amazing. We had heaps of fun and he make us laugh by reading his story.

Maths

I have been practising my maths decimals. This website shows us how we got it correct and how we could of worked it out. This website helps us learn knew things and it teaches us knew strategies. We are really challenging ourselves because it is harder then it looks.  

Can Do

We have been learning how to do our can do's. We think that the teacher are a great job because they are helping us do our work. We have been introduced. This can do is about sad,happy angry,shy and silly. As you get up the cline you will found more powerful words.

Maths

I have been learning about decimals. Decimals are really easy once you get to know them. It's kind of the same as fraction. In my opinion I think that decimals and fraction are the easiest but when it comes to any other maths it's really hard. But if I keep on trying I will get there

Authors Purpose

 

 Today I have read a text about a dance called tinikling. I have found out what to look for in a informed text. I was learning about PIE (Persuade, Informed and Entertain).

Duffy Assembly

Today we had a special assembly. We  had to be really respectful to him he was really funny he made nearly everybody in our class. This was a good feeling and we were really lucky to have him at our school. We would also like to say a big thanks to main freight for giving our books.

Maths

Today we have been doing maths equations. Our maths question were based on fraction's. I was working collaboratively with  my mate named Jasmine.  Fractions wasn't her best subject so I helped her. It was really interesting knowing what she does know and what we had to work on. We both had things we had to work on but we then worked together and helped each other out.

Readthoery

We have been on a website that improves our reading. The website is called Read theory. Read theory is great for our reading because it helps us answer question and also because it test our comprehensive skills. This activity is a fun way of learning and it is digital. We then get a choice of answer usually we have to choose between 4 answer. It is a educating site that helps our reading improve. We are on this site daily to help us in our reading and our reading Comprehension skills. Thank you for finding this site Mrs Kirk patrick. All of my teacher are really amazing in our school because they are really concentrating on our education and I would like to say a big thank you to all my teachers.

Cross Country

Today we had cross country unfortunately I could not run but I encouraged the other children that were running. It was really really interesting because the people that were running were really trying there hardest and concentrated on the run. There were some of the kids on the sideline cheering for the other player's.  Heaps of the children were really supportive and great to the other kids that were running. All the children are amazing because they all know how to make people feel like they are doing a great job which everybody that ran was doing a great job. I am so proud of my class because they did a lot of training and then it paid off for them because they learnt to pace themselves. It is honestly amazing how they learnt how to make it there and on there last lap to run as fast as they could.

WELL DONE TO EVERY BODY THAT GAVE IT A TRY!!!!!! KEEP IT UP AND NEVER GIVE UP!!!!!!!!

Maths

In maths today we were learning how to reorganise decimals.  Our learning intention was to learn about decimals in one place and to order decimals (biggest to smallest). We notice that if we know a strategy that we know we can use it to make it easy for us. Did you know decimals are kind of like fractions? In my opinion I think that decimals are easy that I know more about them. Decimals have a tenth and a whole just like fractions. Decimals are amazing and I love decimals because it is great a fun. We then had to write the answer in our book. I really enjoyed our maths session today. I liked collaborating and sharing my ideas with the people I was siting with.

Sketch Notes

We have been using sketch note so that we can record our learning in our own ways using pictures, words or even numbers. Sketch note helps us make a learning story in our own words. Sketch notes also help us to make connections. One interesting fact that I learnt about sketch notes is that it doesn't have to perfect because only I need to understand it. 

Our first attempt at sketch note was about question because we already knew about the topic. Our second topic was about the athletics.

Cross Country Practicing

We have been practicing our cross country.  We learnt how to pace ourselves and start off smoothly and then when it comes to our last lap we had to finish off strong. We started with one lap then we added up another lap every week. It was really challenging and hard but we told ourselves never to give up.

Poem

I will put into the box …

The rumbling noise of a dinosaurs rumbling stomach

The green snot of the giant ugly muddy troll

The fat rotten ugly green fruit

I will put into the box …

The bright colour yellow just like the sun

A fat bit of snow that will never melt

The drop of a raindrop from the dark clouds

I will put into the box …

The piece of gold blonde hair from Rapunzel

The velvet taste of the yummy gooey chocolate

The candy shop that has all the delicious looking candy

My box is fashioned from the diamonds found in the clear river and the gold found in the mines and the crystals that come straight from the mountains , with _pieces of magic paper that can fly into the sky_ on the lid and my darkest secret in the corners.

Its hinges are it destroy any body that tries to interact with my secret boxes.

I shall cherish and care for all the things in my box forever and ever.

This is my poem. It is about what I would put on my book. I really enjoyed doing this because it was really interesting and I had fun making up things. It was really weird reading it out loud but I like it because I am weird. It is a awkward and funny poem I hope you enjoy reading it.
