Fantastic Fractions

 Kia ora Welcome back to my blog or Welcome to my blog. This week in maths we were looking at fractions. To me fractions are fairly easy, but to other people they are a bit harder. What I do when I work out fraction I draw boxes and then put one number into each box until there are no more numbers left. It is probably the easiest way to solve fractions. If you don't know what I am talking about then you can look at how I worked out the fractions in my slideshow. 




Do you like fractions?

Umbrella

 Hi welcome back to my blog this week at school for writing we were looking at a video called Umbrella what happens is that there a girl and her mum going to a orphanage to donate some toys. The writing was about empathy. Empathy is putting yourself in someone else's shoes   

The Yellow Umbrella 

 As dawn broke through, the smooth dark oak door to Miss Elem’s Home for Children slowly creaked open. The little girl with the bright kowhai umbrella timidly entered the orphanage before finding a place to rest her umbrella. Not wanting to be spotted, Boris quickly turned his head around the door frame so that he was hidden from sight. Standing off to the side, the girl watched the happy and joyful scene as the kids searched in the box for more hidden jewels. The girl smiled as she watched the young boy buzz around the room like a bee. Her smile faded in a blink of an eye as she looked at the umbrella stand and all she saw were puddles. Her precious umbrella had disappeared. 


 Are you empathetic?

Margaret Mahy

On the 20th of May we went to Margaret Mahy,

Victoria square, we fed the tuna,

went on a waka,

found 3 Māori mats and we did some rubbings.

At Victoria Square we drew a pou and went to look at all of the signs that said

what the Māori mats were for,

we learnt what all of the Māori mats meant.

 


My favourite part of the trip was the waka.

It was really fun, first we got into two groups and found a partner in the group.

Once you got a partner you would stand beside each other.

After that we got the paddles and learnt how to use them.

It was very easy to use them.

After we got in the waka and sat on one side of the waka then we started paddling.

I was so excited it was so fun paddling. We were in the waka for so long it was such a fun activity. 


Something I learnt was that the black paving around the park has a song engraved

into it and it has lots of stories

behind all the carvings.

We found somewhere to sit down and go

on the black pavement and did some rubbings

It was so fun learning about the carvings on the black pavement.

Another thing that I learned was

that eels have teeth and when they take the food

there teeth scrape against the spoon.       


The thing I found the most interesting was

when we looked at the Māori mats it was so interesting finding out what all of the Māori mats meant.

Mrs Bryce

told us that if there was an earthquake then the mat would be fine and some builders would be able

to take it

out of the ground and find another place for the mat to go.

That was

the thing I found most interesting. 

    


This trip has helped me with my PBL because in Victoria Square there were many interesting pou.

  I think

the reason that we went there

was so the teachers could get ideas for what we

could put around our school.
