For maths today we were learning about KM, Meters and CM. The teacher first showed us and taught us a little bit about it then we got assigned to do a worksheet. Which was a sheet that had Meters, CM and KM on it. We then filled it out and the teacher marked it. When the teacher finished marking we then glued it into our book. I found this task very easy and intresting.
This week for writing we are learning about figurative language. For our first word that we were learning about was Metaphor. This task or activity was very easy and fun because there were riddles and sentences that we had to create ourselves. I also learnt that Metaphor is a comparison of two unlike things that says one thing is another.
This Cybersmart challenge this week was called blog replies. It was basically about how to reply to a blog comment this was a very easy task to do because the activities were easy. I really enjoyed this task because it taught us how to reply to a blog comment and also because it was a very positive thing to do.
For maths today we were looking at calculating the perimeter of a shape. Mr Raj instructed that we play with the measuring tools available and then with a buddy, draw a random shape, calculate the perimeter and convert it into mm’s. Me and my partner chose to use a ruler. We then drew a shape which looked like a lolly. After we drew the shape we used a piece of string to go around the whole shape. Once we finished using the piece of string to measure the shape we then used the tool that we picked which was the ruler. And measured the string along the ruler to see how much centimetres it was. We got 86 centimetres for our perimeter.
This week it was Team Tui’s assembly we had to show case art, writing, pepehas ETC. It was very nice to see and hear the stories and finished pieces of students work. At one point some of the girls in the seniors and Glendowie college came and performed a beautiful dance including me. The performance was easy and we had to move our hips a lot. I was nervous at first but then when I started dancing I wasn’t anymore.
For this week’s Cybersmart task we had to pair up and create a fictional story and play a game of tic tac toe. It was very quick and easy to complete I lost all of the games of tic tac toe some of them was a tie but it was very fun. My partners name was Mokoia. I enjoyed pairing up with her and it was very interesting to see the different ways to play.
