WALT: understand place value of decimals using a deci - mat


1 whole is divided into tenths
1 whole is divided into hundredths
1 whole is divided into thousandths

In the tenths deci-mat sheet, the red represents four tenths because Shanelle rolled the dice and she got 4/10 then I coloured it in. In the hundredths deci-mat, the dark green represents one one hundredths. Lastly in the thousandths deci-mat, the green one represents three hundredths over one thousandths. I coloured in that amount because our teacher told us to figure out three hundredths over one thousandths. So then I figured it out and then coloured it in.

To me this game was challenging because sometimes I colour in the wrong amount that I have to colour in the wrong deci-mat sheet.

My next learning will be percentages.

WALT: design our own NZ milo mug

Today we had to draw four or five NZ flavored drawing ideas on a piece of paper. Then we had to draw it with a pencil on the mug. Next we had to out line our mug design with a marker.

Prototec Basic Facts

This is my basic facts test results. I got 37 out of 40 answers correct. In this prototec basic facts sheet I am learning my 1000 subtraction. To get 40 out of 40 correct I need to practice how to subtract a number by a 1000. What I would like to learn next is still my 1000 subtraction.

Hockey

Today we were practicing how to play hockey with Lydia. Today we played some games and one of my favourite ones were the traffic light game. When we started warming up she gave us rules about how to use the hockey stick when playing hockey and the rules were.

  • Keep your hockey stick below your knees
  • Don’t wave the hockey stick in the air
  • Use the flat side of the hockey stick to hit the ball
  • Bend your knees so you can move the ball and your back won't get sore

Apples

Apples

In the long boring weekend it was a very hot day. During that day, I sprinted outside to check my apple tree I planted outside last year. At the backyard my apple tree was there. When I checked them they were ready to get bit into. I picked a couple of the dark red ones and took them inside to be rins. After rinsing the apples they got put in the cold frieg.

When I took the apples out they looked a lot shiner when I picked them. When I bit through the dark red apple it was a bit crunchy. The apple was white on the inside and the apple was red on the outside for the coating. After biting the apple there were some apple juice coming out of the the part I bit through. When I tasted the dark red apple it tasted crunchy and juicy. Then my brothers grabbed one and bit through it. When they bit through it I could hear the crunchy ness.

Minutes later the dark red, crunchy, watery apples were all eaten by my brothers.
