Noticing Number: Fudge

Mhoro everyone,

This will actually be my first maths blog post about maths for this term. One thing I have accomplished today is my math work and it is about what you notice, what my maths stuff you notice and all that things. 

But there was a change or an. add up 

(here’s what I’m talking about)

If you’ve seen my previous maths blog posts you’ll would of noticed that change. 

3D Lego Shapes

Kamusta mathematicians,

Half room 9 have made lego blocks into maths by creating a 3D square or rectangle. My buddy and I used 2 by 2’s to create our rectangle. We also made it a 3 layered shape that’s 5 groups of 3 on each layer. That means the amount of blocks we used were 45. 

Here's a picture of our creation, 

Literacy Extension

Kia ora the insanely amazing human that’s reading this,

On Thursday, I was included in a group where we do writing but more extra. What our job was to find the sentences' main idea and change some into better words. The sentences came from a paragraph where I had read through.  

(The story is from the book ‘Wonder’)

When I turned them into new sentences I organised them in order.

Thank you for reading this blog post, I really hope you have a nice day. :)

Salam readers!

Salam readers!

Did you guys enjoy your holidays? I know I did, well I only chilled for the whole holidays. 

Anyways this is actually supposed to be a reading blog post so yeah.  This weeks word of the week is disillusioned. I think disillusioned means when you had something planned but it never happened. 

Heres an image of my weekly word, 

 

Did you learn a word today too?

Maths Noticing

Hallloooo humans in this wonderful earth!!

Today was a day that I looked at another math observation! These are the things where I look at the image and see what maths stuff I notice. 

This one was different though, like really different because the photo was a stem and leaf graph. This you might have already learnt but me, I have never done a stem and leaf graph, ever. 

My work is okay for me but what do you think?

( here’s a screenshot of it,)

I haven't fully finished it, but at least it's close to being done? 

Action Words

Kamusta amazing readers,

The start of this term, room 9 have been learning to write a strong narrative. It has to be believable, descriptive, consistent and needs a strong structure. 

Yesterday my class and I learned how to show not tell to our audience by picking a paragraph from a story we have made and highlighting all the verbs and changing the weak ones to much stronger ones. I completed mine because I used a synonym dictionary. 

Here’s an example: 

Al gave miss D a coffee. 

And this is the change I made, 

Al kindly gifted Miss D a cup of tasty cappuccino. 

Thank you for checking out my post, hope you learnt something about the difference of weak action words and strong verbs! Here’s a link of the synonym dictionary I used, Click here fo the link

Sceptical

Kia ora readers,

Today is a great day that I’ll be sharing with you the work I did for reading. So what I did was, I did my word of the week and it is sceptical. 

I learnt that sceptical is kind of another saying that you think it’s not close to being true. How I knew that was I went on the dictionary, but it was confusing so I went and just searched it up in google then I added them together and that’s how I knew it. 

Do you like how my work is designed?

Every time I do the word of the week, at first I always get confused and I think this word is the word that really hit me.
