Maths Warm up

Task Description: Before starting our maths task about measurement Mrs Tele'a gave us a warm up activity. First was addition, we had to +7  on each number, e.g 7+2=9 . Second was mixed math operations (Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication). Last but not least some extra math problems like was is the prefix (start of a word) for kilogram, kilometre, etc. Square room perimeter problems and math riddles. The thing I like about maths warm ups is that it gives our brains enough energy and boost for the real things. Thank you Mrs Tele'a for making this for us.

Roland Fish Rises Up by Mary- Jane Stewart

Roland Fish Rises Up

by Mary-Jane Stewart

Today's new reading text is called Roland Fish Rises Up. This book was very fun and interesting to read. It was about a school boy named Roland Fish who is not popular, smart or fits in. He gets picked on a lot by Tim O'malley (School's big bully), but Roland doesn't let that take over him. We did our regular stuff like our grammer work, highlighting subjects, verbs and identifying what sentences are Independent and Dependent and how many clauses are there in a sentence. For our paragraph writing we had to explain a moment on what we have to do if someone picks on you. ENJOY!!!

A Brush with the Dark Side!

WALT: Use correct sentence structure

For our next Literacy task, the book we read was A Brush with the Dark side. This book was about these two boys (Jeremy and Sam) who suspect that their teacher (Mr Foster) is from the dark side. They spy on Mr Foster to catch him on the spot but to find out he was just setting up an Aquarium. Or was he?...

Decimals and Fractions!
For our second maths task this week, it also focused on Decimals, Fractions and Percentages. For this task is was like the other one we had to work out which subject marks were the highest. We also had to explain and show our working out. Enjoy!

WLJ: My Pepeha, Activity 1

Winter Learning Journey: My Pepeha!

Week 1, Day 1 and Activity 1

Task Description: Today I have started the Winter Learning Journey 2020, this is the Week 1, Day 1, Activity 1 part. We had to create my own Pepeha. We could use any language, I chose Te Reo Maori. If we needed help we had to use a Pepeha Website or a Template. I had heaps of fun doing the activity, I highly suggest everyone to give it a go. Here is my own Pepeha I came up with, Hope you enjoy it. If it's too hard to read it, it says:

Ko Maungarei Te Maunga- Wellington is the Mountain

Ko Whau River Te Awa- Whau River is the River

Ko Tamaki Ahau- I am from Auckland

Ko E Toku Whanau- E is my Family
