Multiplication & Division

LI: To memorise basic multiplication patterns (the times tables). This week for daily 6 I decided to do multiplication and division. I decided to do level two which was to recite the 3, 4 and 6 times tables and to divide any answer from the 3, 4 and 6 times tables by 1 to 10. I had to write down the times tables and division. I practised my times tables , so I could say the answers to the division and multiplication faster.

Commenting

This week for commenting I decided to comment on Nicole's blog. The blog post that I commented on was Swimming at YMCA lagoon pools. I think that Nicole did a awesome job at doing a blog post about swimming. The connections we had was that I went swimming too. I like the way Nicole added a photo that shows a demonstration of a swimming skill she did and learnt. I also like the way she explained what she did at the YMCA pools. I wanted to know if Nicole had fun swimming. I had a lot of fun commenting on Nicole's blog. Here is the link- Nicole's Blog

Dance Mat Typing

LI: To learn touch type. This week for daily 6 we did keyboarding. For keyboarding we had to go on a site called dance mat typing. For dance mat typing there was three levels which was home row, e and i and r and u. This time I decided to do e and i. For the e and i I had to do a warm up. For the warm up I had to do the home row keys which is a, s, d, f, j, k, l and ;. Once I did that I had to do the letter e and i. There was a character telling me what to do. I had fun typing letters.

Area & Perimeter

LI: To use a formula to calculate the area of rectangles and squares./LI: To investigate the relationship between the perimeter and area of rectangles. This week for maths we had to finish off three maths activities. First we got into partners. My partner was Sulia. We had to watch two videos about the area and the perimeter. After we did that we did the maths activities. The first maths activity that we did was the glossary where we had to write down the definition of maths words. The second maths activity we had to do was the area and perimeter where we had to find out the perimeter and the area. The last maths activity we had to do was to measure shapes and find out the area and the perimeter. These maths activities were hard and also fun.

Trebuchet History

LI: To learn about how to overcome earthwork fortifications using technology. This week for inquiry we had to make a google slide about information about a technology people used in war. First we got into our groups from last week. In my group I had Farzana, Victoria and Nicole.

Once we got into our groups from last week we played the board game, but with our rampart that we created. We followed the same rules. The invaders could come into the rampart. There was a small cut for the invaders to pass through the rampart. We only played one round of the board game. For the board game Victoria and Nicole was the invaders and Farzana and I was the defenders. For the board game Victoria and Nicole won as the invaders because Farzana and I as the defenders had bad tactics/strategies.

Once we played the board game we chose a technology for the invaders. Our technology that we chose was a trebuchet. Once we chose our technology we had to tell the teacher keywords, so that we could search it up on google to find our information about trebuchet. Once we did that we made a google slide and wrote down information about trebuchet. We had to do this, so that we could create a trebuchet for the board game. Once we finished the google slide we had to present it to the class. For the presentation I think that my group and I could've improved by speaking louder.

After we presented our presentation we played the board game called Village Invaders. The invaders got two trebuchets to use. Two invaders had to be on a trebuchet. They could attack the defenders from the rampart. At the end the invaders won because they had two trebuchets.

Persuasive Writing- Structure & Language Features

LI: To identify the structure and language features of a persuasive text. This week for writing we were learning about persuasive writing. First we learnt about the structure and language features of a procedural writing. The structure of a procedural writing is OREO which stands for opinion, reasons, explanations and opinion. The opinion is to state your opinion, so people can believe in your opinion. The reason and explanation is to help the opinion. The last opinion is the same thing as the other opinion. The language features is simple present(infinitive tense), emotive words/devices and cause and effect words.

Once we learnt the structure and language feature we made a copy of a google draw. The google draw had a persuasive text on it. First we had to copy and paste the sections of the text in the correct positions on the right. We needed to highlight the language features of the text. We had to highlight simple present yellow, we had to highlight emotive words/devices red and we had to highlight cause and effect words blue.

Izanagi & Izanami Lessons

LI: To identify the purpose of narratives./LI:To identify the underlying morals/themes/explanations in myths, legends and fairytales. This week for reading we had to make a DLO about the lessons of a myth. First we chose a myth. We couldn't choose the myth we chose last week. The myths were Izanagi & Izanami from Japan, Mahishasura & Durga from India, Lac Long Quan from Vietnam and Cuchulainn from Ireland. The myth that I chose this time was Izanagi and Izanami from Japan. Once we chose our myth we did the reading notes. For the reading notes we needed to do reading strategies before reading, during reading and after reading. Once we did that we made a DLO teaching people the lessons of a myth. The DLO that I chose was a google slide. For the google slide I decided to include who Izanagi and Izanami is, Questions, a summary and the lessons.

Swimming-YMCA Pools

This week for kiwi sport we had swimming. Kelly's group and James group teamed up. First we got life jackets and wore it. Then we stood up on the bench. We had to hold our life jack with one hand tightly and hold our nose. We had to do that, because if we didn't you would drown. We all jumped in the water one at a time. Once we did that we made a circle. We made a circle by floating on our back and holding onto a person's life jacket. You had to hold the person in front of you. 

After that we made the same circle but there was two people in the middle of the circle which was Kaitlyn and I. We did that because if there is people injured you have to put them in the middle and take care of them. In the sea if you are lonely and not with your group the shark will think that you are a seal, so they will eat you, but if you are with your group and you are in a circle the shark will leave you alone.
Once we did that we swam to the platform on our stomach. After we did that same thing, but swam on our backs. Then we told the teacher if swimming back was better or swimming front. Swimming on our backs are better because it is easier and swimming on our fronts is harder. After we did that we floated on our backs, put our hand up and said help three times. After we did that we got out of the pools, got changed and went back to class.

Kiwi Can

This week for kiwi can we had Mr. Matt and Ms. Lily. Our topic was problem solving and our theme was resilience. First we started with our energiser which was called Hoop de hoop. For hoop de hoop we got into two groups. I was in group one. Group one went on one side and group two went on the other side. There was hoops of the floor. One person from each group had to run to the furthest hoop. Then we had to stop if we were on the same hoop or if we were on different hoops. We had to at least be near the other person. Once we stopped we had to do rock, paper, scissors, shoot. The person who lost had to go back to their team. The person who won had to run to the hoops. If the person landed to the hoop near the other team, they won and got one point for their team. The group that had three points won. My group won.

Once we played hoop de hoop we sat in a circle and talked about problem solving. To solve problems like maths problems you can ask for help. The people you can ask for help is your friends, you family, your caregivers and your teachers. If you need help ask for help even if you think that people are going to say that you are dumb. Remember to not be afraid.

Once we did that we played Mat dodge ball. For mat dodge ball we got numbered one to five. I was number five. Ms. Lily called out a number. If she called out number two the people who got numbered two had to go in the middle. The other people had to try and hit the people in the middle with the ball. The people in the middle had to dodge the ball. If they got hit by the ball they had to sit down. The last person standing won. Everyone who won had to play. The winner of the game was Lorenzo.

Once we played that game we sat in a circle and did GKQ/General Knowledge Questions. We didn't have a buzzer, we had to shout out the answer. Two people had to stand up at a time. When I stood up I had to answer a easy math question.  After we did GKQ/General Knowledge Questions we went back to class.

Sunset Silhouette Art

This week we did art. For art we made our silhouettes which was our city scapes. First we chose a city. I chose the Auckland city. After we went on a google draw and put a photo of our city on. Then we out lined the city using shapes or polyvinyl. We chose the one that was easy for us. I chose both polyvinyl and shapes. We coloured our silhouettes black. Once we did that we deleted the photo of the city and coloured the background of the google draw white. We made sure the google draw page was A4. After that we downloaded the png and put in a folder that the teacher sent us. Our city scapes got printed.

After we could chose sunsets for our backgrounds. I used my imagination for the background. Once we chose our backgrounds we got a piece of black paper. We put our names on the back. We got coloured pieces of paper and started cutting out shapes. If we were happy with our background we could glue it onto the black paper. Our background had to be A4.

The teachers cut out our city scapes and called out our names to get it. Once we got our city scapes we glued it onto our background. I had lots of fun making a city scape art. I was happy with my background and my city scape.

A silhouette is a image or art of either a object, a person or a animal. A silhouette is a single colour which is mostly the colour black.

Commenting

This week for commenting I decided to comment on Bella's blog. The blog post that I commented on was Different Angles Sheet. I think that Bella did a good job. The connection that Bella and I had was that we both measured angles using a protractor. I liked the way Bella added a LI. I also liked the way she explained what she did and what she learnt. I just wanted to know if she found it hard to measure angles with a protractor because I kind of did. 

Ramparts- Technology

LI: To learn about earthworks fortifications and examples in history. This week for inquiry we had to make a google slide of a technology that was used in the past. First we played a board game with a group of four. In our group I had Farzana, Victoria and Nicole. For the board game there was four pink counters on one side and four blue counters on the other side. The blue counters were the defenders and the pink counters were the invaders. There was a gold counter which was the treasure. The defenders had to defend the treasure. The invaders had to try and get the treasure off the defenders. Two people had to be the defenders and the other two people had to be the invaders. We had to move two counters each. If the defenders or the invaders were next to one each other we could attack which means we had to roll the dice. If the invaders wanted to attack and got six, but the defenders got one, one of the defenders would be killed. I had fun doing playing this board game. After we played the board game we made the google slide of a technology that was used in wars. The technology they could do was dig dirt. We could choose ramparts, hill forts or trenches. My group and I chose ramparts. For the google slide we had to write in what our technology was, two historical examples, the name of the locations and when it was built. Once we did that we presented it. After that we played the board game again, but we had a technology which was the rampart for the defending team. I had fun playing the board game.

Dance Mat Typing

LI: To learn touch type. This week for daily 6 I decided to do keyboarding. For keyboarding we had to go on a site called Dance Mat Typing. There is three levels to the Dance Mat Typing. The level that I chose was the home row keys. For the home row keys we had to put our fingers on a s d f and j k l ;. Our right hand had to be on j k l ; and our left hand had to be on a s d f.

LI: To learn how to measure angles using a protractor. This week for maths we had to measure angles using a protractor. First we got into groups of 4. For the groups there had to be one magnificent multiplier person, one crazy calculator crushers, one super speedy subtracters and one maths masters. In my group I had Fau, Nicole and Sulia. We all got a sheet of paper that had angles. We worked together to measure the angles using a protractor.  There was 8 angles to measure. The angles were either acute, obtuse, reflex, straight or right. Once we finished filling out the sheet we showed the teacher and we the score we got was close to 8/8, it was like 6 or 7 out of 8. We got lots of them correct and little that was almost correct.

Swimming-YMCA Pools

LI: To learn how to rescue someone in the water. This week for kiwi sport we had swimming. First we all gathered up and Cameron and James talked about how to rescue someone. Before we did that we told Cameron and James what we do when we are drowning. Once we did that we learnt about how to rescue someone. To rescue someone you need to tell a adult that knows how to swim or a life guard. You something that floats for the both of you, like a rope. Once we did that we got into partners. My partner was Liletina. Someone had to be in the water. We all got one pool noodle between our partner. Once we did that the person of the bench had to pass the pool noodle to the person in the water and drag them out of the water. The person in the water had to put their hand up and shout help loud at least three times. Once we did that we learnt how to float in the water. To float we could either float on our backs and put our hand up and say help or we could make our legs go in circles and bring our arms forwards then back far. When we finished doing that we got out of the pool and we went to get changed. Then we went on the bus and went back to class.

Sky Tower Trip

This week we had a trip to the Sky Tower. First we went on the bus and travelled to the Sky Tower. Then we got out and went inside the Sky Tower. We got split into two groups, group A and group B. I was in group B. We went down the elevator. A lady took a photo of us. After we went into a lift. A lady told us things about the Sky Tower and took us places. The level we went to was 51. It was really high. There was a clear glass where you could see how high we went. Our ears were popped. After we got out of the lift. We received little booklets and little pencils. For the booklets we had to guess places around Auckland. There was pictures to show the places. There was a clear glass's where we could see the road from the Sky Tower. We all saw somebody bungee jump. It looked fun and scary. We only had 15 minutes at level 51. After we finished looking we walked down stairs all the way to level 45. If there was a fire we had to go to 44,45 or 46. At level 45 there was first aid kits, colouring and puzzles. We looked around level 45. Once we did that we went back to the ground and watched videos that gave us information about the Sky Tower. Once we watched videos of that we went on the bus and went back to class. I had an awesome and fun day. It was my first time going to the Sky Tower. The Sky Tower year built was 1997. The height was 324 metres. When you are bungee jumping and you get to the ground it is 11 seconds. To walk down the stairs, it takes 29 minutes to walk. I learnt lots of things about the Sky Tower.

I wrote down the 7, 8 and 9 times tables. I also wrote down the division.

Swimming-YMCA Pools

LI: To learn how to swim. This week for kiwi sport we had swimming at the YMCA pools. First we all sat down near the pools. Cameron and James taught us about how to ask for help when you are drowning in the ocean or river and how to save other people in the ocean or river. If you are drowning you can ask for help by yelling for help as loud as you can and you can jump and put one hand in the air. If you are wanting to help someone from drowning you can get a board and swim to the person. Then you can give them the board, so they can float. You have to stay a few metres away because they can jump on you which makes you drown to. Make sure you are between the red flags or signs. If you are not the lifeguards won't be able to help you. Once we finished learning about that we went to our stations. I was with Kelly. First we jumped into the pool safely. Then we did sculling. For sculling we had to float on our backs and bring our arms out and back together. We had to scull to the platform. Once we did that we jumped out of the pool and went to the other pool. We got pool noodles. We had to ran in big circles. Then we had to float on our backs and go in circles. When we finished doing that we had to float front and switch to back. When we did that we jumped back into the other pool and we sculled to the platform. After that we jumped out of the pool and got changed. Once we got changed we went on the bus and went back to class.

LI: To learn how to swim. This week for kiwi sport we had swimming at the YMCA pools. First all of us sat down. Cameron teached us about hyperthermia and hypothermia. Hyperthermia is when your body is too hot, so like overheated. Hypothermia is when your body loses heat, so it means that  your body temperature is low. After we learnt about hyperthermia and hypothermia we went back to swimming.The coach that I was with was Kelly. First we had to jump into the pool safely. Then we got the pool noodles and floated on our backs to the other platform. While doing that we had to bring our arms forward than back.  Once we did that we floated on our front and kicked to the platform. After that we got the boards and floated on our front. We had to kick underwater and get to the platform. When we finished doing that we did the same thing, but float on our backs with the board. Then we tried floating on our backs without anything. While doing that we had to bring our arms close and far. We swam to the other side of the platform. Once we did that we could do any swimming to the other side of the platform. Once we finished that we got out of the pool and went to change. After that we went on the bus and went back to class.

Kiwi Can

This week for kiwi can we had Mr. Matt, Ms. Lily and Mr. Latu. Our theme was resilience and our topic was goal settings. First we had played a energiser called Snatch. For snatch we had to get into a circle. Then we had to hold a rope and put it on the ground. There was cones in the middle. Ms. Lily put on a song. We all had to dance around the circle. When the music stopped we had to get a cone. While the music was playing we couldn't step in the middle. We couldn't dive if we were going to get a cone. If we dived we had to sit on the side and watch. Once we played Snatch we sat in our four lines and talked about goal settings and what we did last week. Once we talked about that we did the activity which was called Octopus. For Octopus the boys had to go on one side of the room and the girls had to go on the other side. There was a hoop in the middle. Mr. Matt stood on that and he was holding two pool noodle. If Ms. Lily said crawl the boys had to crawl one the other side and the girls too. Mr. Matt had to hit us with the pool noodle, so that we could be octopuses. Ms. Lily said to crawl and walk only. It was hard because there was a lot of people acting like octopuses. After we played Octopus we did GKQ. Our buzzer was to put our hands on our heads and say our names. Once we did GKQ Ms. Lily did the points. All together we got 23.5 points. We only needed to work on respect. When we finished we did our chant and went back to class.

LI: To learn how to be safe in the water. This week for kiwi sport we had swimming. We went to the YMCA pools on the bus. My coach was Kelly. First we had get down and into the pools safely. By doing that we had to put both our hands on one side and get in the pool. Then we had to try and get up and get back in using the ladder. After that we had to swim from one side to the platform. Once we did that we swam back. After that we did the starfish front and back. We got the pool noodle and started to float on our back. While doing that we had to kick our feet and go to the other platform. When we finished doing that we had to do the same thing, but float forward. After that we got the swimming noodles and we had to use it to swim frontwards. We had to kick our feet and go to the other side of the platform. Once we finished doing that we did the same thing, but floating backwards. When we finished doing that Kelly threw toys and we all had to get one each. We had to go to the very bottom of the pool and get it. Then we put it back in the bucket. We got out of the pool and went to change. After we went on the bus and went back to class.
