ANZAC by PAREATA

This week room 12 has been writing about this picture. First we used our senses to see how it will feel being in a trench. We described what we could hear, smell, see and feel. Once we had all our describing words we picked 3 strong words and had to make 3 sentences. After that we had to use our 3 strong sentences to make a paragraph and from a paragraph we were able to write a story.

Here's an excerpt from my writing: The scared soldiers wore their protection and stood behind the sandbags with their survival kit in case they got shot.......

Trenches swiveled by Asiana

Week 4 is the week where all room 12 students are learning to write 3 sentences for one picture. Here are the three sentences that I have wrote on what the picture looks like.

Trenches swiveled through a mountain in a maze figure - with people crowded upon each other, waiting for the enemy.

“ My heart is getting louder, it almost feels like waiting to get shot. My heart is struggling to work. My heart beats are increasing while time flies by.”

“Protecting my country is something stuck in my head - as I know my family depends on me.”

Hope you enjoyed reading my writing.

Mele's Maths

Maths                                                                                                                 24 Friday July 2015

                                               MATHS

This Week for Maths my Group have been working on how to solve Addition and Subtraction using different strategies and our number knowledge. When I first tried this it looked difficult. When I read the WALT I think I kind of know what to do. This went kind of easy and hard for me. Even though I got some answers wrong or right it didn't really matter I still enjoyed it. When It came to the last part it went hard. I still tried to get the answer.  I enjoyed doing this. I think this could help us in maths, because when we are stuck on a sum we could use another strategy to get the answer.

Improper Fractions get easier by Pareata

This week in maths, group four has been learning to convert improper fractions to mixed fractions.
I already knew it but I just needed to revise on my converting. As we went through the worksheet it got easier and I understood that converting is really easy. e.g : 3 and 3/10 = 33/10 which is an improper fraction.
