For reading we learnt about making connections.

Text to text is linking to another text you have read. For example in the story Ants on the March the ants is a predators.In the story predators a tiger is predators.

Text to self is linking something that you have done. For example In the story Ants on the March the ants work together.In reading I work together with my friends. 

Text to world Is linking something that the world has done.For example ant work in huge group to build a bridge.Builder work in a huge group to build a house or a bridge.

Division

 For math we were writing a division story.

First I had look how much groups we had to dived. 

Next we had to write the division problem That we looked at. We had to write how much Objects we had. Next we had to write how we dived them. After we had to write how each person got.

Last we write the algorithm Like 30÷3=10. For example I had 30 chairs.I divide them to my self and my 2 friend. We each got 10. 30÷3=10

Touch rugby

 We learned about touch.

First we practice how to catch the ball. We had to catch the ball with two hands with a w with  fingers to catch the ball.

Next we learn how to pass the ball. How we pass the ball is we had to turn to our left and try to pass the ball to our partners.

Last we did a game. The game was we had to work together and try to put the ball in a color  hoop.

I learnt about passing and catching.

experiment

For inquiry we did a experiment . 

Experiments are used to find out information and test things.

 First we had prepare the material that were stone, sand,nappies and cotton rugs. Our group did sand.

 Next we had to pour 100 millilitres in a beaker with water. After we had to dip 5 drops of food coloring into the water and mix it.

After we had to measure 50g of sand using a scale. We then pour material in to a tote tray ready to put the water on it. After pouring the water we waited for it to be absorbed. We put the water not absorbed in a measuring cup to see how much water that was absorbed and not absorbed.

I enjoy doing this experiments.

Body parts Maori

LI:learning about body parts in Maori. 

This week for Maori we learned about body parts.

We matched the Maori words next to the English words. When we found the right word for the body part we had to highlight the ones we knew.

I enjoy learning new things in Maori.

Division

 LI:To share objects evenly.

Division is to share objects evenly to some groups. For example 12 divided by 4 equals 3. The original amount of objects that available had is 12. Then we gave 1 bean one at a time to four groups. The group size was 3.
