Perimeter and Area

Hello everyone,

For the last weeks, we have been learning about perimeter and area. After learning about multiplying two sides of the shape, (height and length) to get the area, our teacher Miss D, created a fun presentation for us to figure out the perimeter and area of shapes. The hardest part for me was figuring the area because I multiplied the perimeter too much. The easy part was finding the perimeter. The learning behind this was to learn about perimeter and area.
Here is my presentation:
Thank you Dad for helping me!

Bio Poem

Last week, we wrote bio poems. A bio poem is a poem about yourself. You had to include you name, 4 words to describe you,  Sibling of, brother/sister of, a thing you love, a memory, a fear, an achievement, a dream and the place you live in. My favourite part was thinking about the things I wrote in my bio poem. For me the hardest part was coming up with an achievement. The learning behind this was to learn about poetry.

Motion and Forces

Hello everyone,

For the last week for reading we have been learning about forces and motion. In our reading groups we had to read about forces and motion. We had to create a DLO about the different forces we had learnt about. We learnt about what forces are and what they can do. My favourite part was reading about forces and motion. The hardest part to me was finding the information to fill the boxes. The learning behind this was to learn about motion and forces and what they can do.
Here is my DLO:

Speech DLO

Kia ora,

For the last few days, we have been coming up with topics for our speeches. Mines about: Why chickens should not be caged. We made a google draw to display our reasons in pictures. We couldn't use any words to talk about our pictures. My favourite part was creating the draw. The hardest part was coming up with three reasons on why chickens should not be caged.
Here is my draw. See if you can figure out my three reasons.

Little Box Magic Maths

Hello fellow bloggers,

For the last few days for maths, we have been about missing number equations. We did this task in our mixed ability groups. This an example of we were doing: 100 went into the box and 56 came out of the little box, what happened in the box?  Today, we created a DLO for a missing number problem of our own. My favourite part was being able to choose our equation. The hardest part was that we had to use our own piece of paper to work out some of the problems when we were in our group. The learning behind this task was to learn about subtraction and missing number problems.
See if you can work my equation out:
