Snowboarding or Skateboarding

Today for reading we were comparing Snowboarding and Skateboarding to each other. We also chose which sport we would like to try out. I also explained why I would want to do it and why one of my answers for the question why was  I love to be in the cold snow. I really enjoyed doing this activity because I learned new safety rules. This is the site were I got information from Snowboarding link. 

Read Theory / Graph

This is the graph of the progress that I have made beginning of this year. I really think I made progress 70 quiz when I was reading about sleep spray were I scored 66 and my grade level was up to was 6. I am really proud of my self and I will try to do better in my next quiz. 

Measuring Angles

Today for Mathematics we made this DLO about Measuring angles with protractors.  Did you know that a obtuse angle is more then 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees. In this DLO I explained the about the proper maths vocabulary I need to use when I am talking about angles. We also learned about the names of the angles and I added pictures to show what these angles look like.  I really enjoyed learning about these types of angles because I learned more about angles. 

Kiwi Can

Today for Kiwi Can Mr Matt and Ms Lily explained told us about the topic for term 1 is. We also played a games called Bang! The way you play this game is that you and a group of friends stand in a circle. One other person stands in the middle and calls out people's names that are in the middle of two people. The person call at should duck down and the two other challenge each to which person can say Bang! first. We also  played a energizer. This was a really good Kiwi Can. 

Addition / Place Value

Today for Mathematics we were learning about using Place Value to solve word problems. My word problem was 7656+1133. First I added the units which are 6+3 which equaled up to 9. After that I added the tens together which are 50+ 30 which added up to 90. Then I added up the hundreds which are 600+100 which equals 700. Then I added the thousands which are 7000+1000 which equaled 8000. Then I added 8000+700+80+9 which equal up to 8,789. 

Duffy Assembly

Today we did not have our normal assembly had a a Duffy Assembly. In this assembly we got the Duffy books that we chose  in the first week of school. We also had guests that came from different sports teams. They explained how reading got them to were they are today. This was a really great assembly and I learned that reading can be benefical for your  life.

136 to 138 Words

Today I tried explain what the Winter Olympics are about. I need to remember to put the full stops in the right places.  

Today we used the ‘2 words 1 minute’ challenge to write a description about the Winter Olympics. After talking in pairs about the things we knew about the winter olympics we created a list of words (vocabulary) that would help us write our description. We chose the words ‘equipment’ and ‘respect’ to help us think about what we were going to write.

We talked about ideas with a partner, then we had 1 minute to put those ideas into sentences. We had to try our best to use all the words on our vocab list. After the minute was up we had 2 minutes to reread what we had written and make changes if anything didn’t make sense or if we had words and punctuation in the wrong place. When we finished checking we had 2 more minutes to carry on writing our descriptions.

I did good in explaining what this story is about.

I need to remember to use full stops at the end of my sentence and put them in the right place.
