Revision

This week group B revised questions from this term.

First we played a memory game and we had to say the name of the picture if you made a match . You get another turn if you make a match.

Next I searched up the questions and what they mean. Some were Ko wai o hoa? means who are  your friends, and Kei hea to hoa? means where is your friend.

I like this activity but I want to learn more questions.

Table mat

This week we used skimming and scanning to read a book called the piece of paper path.

Skimming is like being a airplane and looking for important paragraphs and keywords.

Scanning is being like a helicopter and stoping on paragraph and find important sentences.

We looked at a few pictures to find what the book we were reading is about. It was about  metal,plastic,paper.

We applied skimming and scanning when watching a recycling prosses video. We used skimming to find diffrent keywords and scanning was used to find facts that linked with chronology.

I like this activity but it was hard finding facts and keywords about recycling. 

Party poppers

This week we were thinking of a design for a party popper.

First we thought of the parts of the party poper Mr Wong made they are, Cup, half tooth pick, folded piece of papere, connfitte, and a rubber band.

Then we write down the design we wanted on the party poper witch was paper cup, Avengers wallpaper, half tooth pick, little piece of paper, red and blue connfetti, and a big blue rubber band.

After we write rational this is what we write, We chaged the plastic cup to a paper cup because when you cut a hole in the cup it won't break apart, We chaged the outside of the cup to avengers because people at our market might like superheros,We left this the same because it hold the rubber band togethar, we didn't change the little piece of paper because it will still pop, We changed the connfetti because people in our market might like red and blue, We changed it to a big blue rubber band because it will make a bigger explosion. 

This activity was hard because we couldn't think of any new designs.

Codes

There are 3 basic turns. they are:1/4t, half turn, 3/4t, and the last one is a full turn. The two directions are anticlockwise and clockwise.

Summaries

Summaries are explaning what the reader thought of the book.

One type of summaries is evalute, the writer, writes their own opinion about the mechanisms.

Another type of summarys is repeat, to do this copy the mechanisms you wrote but put it into a better sentence.

Summaries are good to use because it inform people about what the reader did.

SSR selfie

 This week I read the book Captain underpannts I read up to page 30.

They end up having a test and didn't study and people started laughing.

I like this book because I learnt new words.

This week I did subtraction on basic facts boxes.

I got 100 out of 100 answers correct , I finished under 3 minustes and 51 seconds but I think I can do better. 

I like my times tables because it helps me learn my times tables and i'd like to get a faster time.

Sentences

We learnt a voritey of diffrent sentences in Maori.

First I looked at the sentences and where they were placed like in the fridge.

Next I took the object I was using which was an orange and put that into a sentence in Maori.

Lastly I put that together and this was the sentence, Kei hea te arani? Kei runga i te tepu.

I like this activity but I don't always understand how to answer the questions.

Table mat information.

 This week we skimmed and scanned a book called killer quakes.

Skimming is being like a airiplane and looking for keywords only. Scanning is being a helicopter and stopping on a paragraph when seeing information.

First I put in a title on and put in keywords from the book we read killer quakes we read 10 pages of this book.

Then I attributed the photos and difined one keyword from each box, they were earth plates and tsunamis earth plates are slabes of rocks and a tsunami is a big wave of water that goes many times.

Then I put in knowlege I already about earth quakes into the prior knowlege box.

Lastley I filled in Questions box and key word questions box. These questions were for what we wanted to ask and why they happend. Key questions are what the author would have needed to think about when writing.

I like this activity but finding keyword questions about earthquakes was hard. 

HPE balancing

 This week we did balancing with diffrent equitment.

First we did hockey, we had to balance on our leg and stop the ball then softley hit it back.

I like this activity but we couldn't use the hockey stick to hold us up when balancing.

Next we did egg and spoon to do this we hald the egg and spoon far away from our body. Then we had to 

bend down then come back up without droping the egg.

I like this activity but I keep droping the egg.

Then we did balancing a football on our heads for as long as we could. Then we had to bounce the ball on our knee 3 times.

I like this activity but it was hard to balance the ball on my head

After we did vollyball to do this our partner had to pass the ball to us and we had to dig or set the ball.

I like this activity but it was hardd to dig the ball.

Lastly we did tennis to do this our partner bounced the ball all threw the ball soft and we had to hit it and they had to catch it.

I like this but it was hard to hit the ball.

Basic facts boxes

 This week I did multiplication on basic facts boxes.

I got 100 out of 100 answers correct , I finished under 3 minustes but I think I can do better. 

I like my times tables because it helps me learn my times tables and i'd like to get a faster time.

Walking with ANZAC

This week we did reciprocal reading about World War 1 using  the roles of Leader, Predictor, Clarifier, Questioner and Summarizer. 

These helped us but Clarifier helped us the most because we found new words we didn't know. They helped me understand  new main ideas for summarising Where We Lived.

I like this activity but Summarizer was my most favourite roll.

When we did What We Invested the one that helped me the most was Predictior because the photos helped me guess what happend in the PDF.

I like this activity but predicting was good because I got to guess what happend in the war.
