Multiplication Strategies

My Reflection

I think I did well with recording my maths thinking because it was legible and clear.   I think I did well with solving all the problems because it made sense.  

Next time I think I could do better with explaining each strategy because I found it wasn't that straightforward.

Scene 3

history of earthquakes

P3: In 2011 there was a HUGE  earthquake in Christchurch New Zealand. The population of  Christchurch before the earthquake I there were 376 700 and then 10,600 people left because of the damaged. Over half of those people didn't have a survival kit.

SCENE 4

Do's and don'ts

P3 ok class we are going to talk about the dos and dont's of a survival kit.

P2 &1 act out d&d .

Do not pack things that aren't useful because you only have limited space and just think about it if you took a DVD a DVD player wouldnt just be hanging in a tree

don’t go wondering around after an earthquake

because everything would be damaged with glass everywhere. you could get hurt

Dont panic.

but always check your safety.

Scene 5

The aftermath

P2&1 acts and speaks:

P1 Oh my Gosh look what's happened.

P2  wow this is horrible I’m so glad we stayed safe and stopped covered and held.

(p3 walks in )

Always be Prepared!

My Rounding And Compensating Work

My Daffodil Diamante Poem

This is my Daffodil Diamante Poem I found this work  quite challenging  because I tried to get really interesting words. My next step is to use more interesting words for a different poem topic.

My All Blacks Presentation

My Interschool Rugby Team Certificate

 

                        I got this certificate because I participated in the interschool  rugby team. At first I                               wasn't enjoying it because we weren't winning that much but the only thing that                                   mattered was to have fun and try.  

My Japanese Whaling Speech

Why Japanese-Whaling Should STOP

2000 Whales are getting killed a year.  30,000 Whales have been killed since the Whaling ban came to be.  I’m Jerome and i’m going to tell you why Japanese Whaling  should STOP.  The Japanese say that they are using the Whale blubber for “tests”  How many Whales does it take for one test… just one and last time I checked Whaling was banned.  The Green- Peace try to save Whales . They are protesters they try to save Whales by protesting and it is coming to the end of my speech so remember STOP Japanese Whaling and save the WHALES.
 
I found this tricky because I only had about 20 minutes to write my speech because I lost my writing book and I was half way through my first speech . I think I could improve on my vocabulary. My next step is to make my speech a lot longer.

Basic Facts Monthly Test 2014

Cry of the Taniwha Prejudice Example

Reflection

This is my Cry of the Taniwha Prejudice Example.

I found this easy because the story gave us a lot of information about this character.

Next time my goal is to choose a harder character.

My Volcano Art

                 
                                    We learnt how to apply paint with  special technique,s  one was dragging                                      another one was sponge dabbing and the last one was card printing and                                         we made the volcano a silhouette.

My Special Place Writing

I was learning how to use my senses to add detail to my writing I felt that this piece of work was quite tricky because I didn't know what sense was next and I couldn't get the describing words as easy as the other people did.  My next step is to be more specific in my describing.   My next step is to be more specific in my describing.

Understand a Character's Impact

Did You Ever Poem

My Reflection

In this piece of work I was learning to create and publish a Did you ever poem.  I found this easy because I have done a similar poem previously.  Next time i should make it a bit more interesting .

My next step is to put more effort into my Did you ever poems. 

My Aquarium

concentric circle name art

This is my name art. We used warm and cool colours on a background of the concentric circles

Comparing Characters

I was learning to compare characters.  I compared Jesse and Leslie from Bridge to Terabithia. I thought this learning was easy because I have inferred stories before.  My next step is to see which character I can relate to more.

Popplet make it and break it

I was learning that numbers can be made and broken up in a number of different ways.  I  found it a bit tricky because I didn't get patterns quickly.

M next step is to learn or get patterns quicker.
