E Ako maths

Today for maths I played E ako maths again. On this page, I had to explain some of the ways I got the answers to this question. Like skip counting, multiplication, division, and many other ways.

Water Safety

Last week or two weeks ago,  for my inquiry I made a DLO about water safety. This has stuff like why we need to know how to swim, how we might explain swimming to a little child, and lots more. This is my prior knowledge I have about water safety.

E - Ako maths multiplication and division

Today for maths I did E-ako maths, multiplication and division. In this task, a girl called Eva is playing Old Maid. She only has twenty cards, so we subtracted, added, and shared the cards to make equal groups, which was the main idea of this task.

Finding China

Today my reading group (Pukeko) and I read a story called " Finding China". It was about a girl who was half Chinese that lived in Dunedin. Her dads friend gave an idea that she should go to school in Shanghi, so when she was 11 years old, she flew by herself all the way to China, Shanghi. She then started a boarding school called Ping He Bilingual school. After we read the story our group went to a table and graphed the similarity's and differences between Ping-He school and our school (Panmure Bridge School). This is all our synthesized knowledge we came up with.

About Informational Reports

For the past week we have been making a DLO about how to write a Informational Report. This DLO has the structure of a DLO, how to edit your report, and other words to help make your sentence starters more interesting.

My teachers tweets

This task was about Mrs Anderson's tweets. We had to fix them before she sent them out into the world and into the classroom. We looked through them and it sounded terrible. For example her tweet was"Don't wear white people I can guarantee you will get a stain." We fixed it up and added a comma that sounded like this "Don't wear white, people. I can Guarantee you will get a stain!". This was suppose to help others know when and how to use a comma.

Language Challenge

For inquiry this morning, my buddy Nazanin and I made a Chinese mandarin DLO. On this DLO it shows how to speak basic Chinese mandarin ( hello, goodbye, and thank you ). We also have a link to a website and an expert saying these greetings and other words.  In the top right corner we also have the Chinese flag.
