Web: I can't imagine my life without

Today we had to use a web to write down the things we can't imagine life without. To me, the main thing I can't imagine life without is, my family. I have a lot of things I can't live my life without.

Enlarging a picture

Today we had to enlarge a picture that we had chosen, to draw on the asphalt outside. First, I had to draw my grid on a paper, to see what it would like on the ground. The next day, we all had to go outside to measure and draw our grid. My grid was a 7 by 9 grid. The picture that I had to enlarge outside on the asphalt was an elephant.

To draw my picture using my grid, I had to count the squares while drawing my elephant accurately. I worked out my scale factor which was: 1cm represented 30cm. Enlarging a picture on the asphalt was difficult because some of the things that I drew were in the wrong place.

What's My Why?

Tessellation

 
Last week Friday, we learned how to name tessellation patterns. Today we made our own tessellation pattern using symmetry. To me, this activity was kind of easy because, all I had to do was just to make a shape. I enjoyed this activity because it was fun.

Haiku

This week, we learned how to write a Haiku. A haiku is a traditional Japanese poem. To make a haiku, you have to follow the three rules. The rules are: 17 syllables, 5 on the first line, 7 syllables on the second line and five syllables on the third line. You also have to use seasonal reference and a cutting point. 

This is my Haiku that I made with Andrea and Norah.

Brooke Neal

Brooke Neal represented New Zealand in the RIO Olympic 2016. She is a defender in the Black Sticks hockey team. Shay Neal, her brother, and Brooke both play hockey. Brooke's motivation is her family. Her dad trained her since she was 2 years old. Brooke Neal's role model is her brother. Brooke loves her brother so much that she follows his foot steps.

Angles

In this game, I had to find all the 8 planets using angles. When you finish the first round it will get harder and harder. I found this game easy because it gave me a protractor to use. In the last round, there will be no numbers. All you have to do is figure it out.

Acrostic Poem - Terror

Walt: write an acrostic poem using alliteration

Tree twigs tumbled to the ground

Emergency equipment was pulled out

Radios roared throughout the building

Raging rain splattered against the rooftop

Overpowering objects flew towards

Rest replaced worried thoughts

Rules of Divisibility

Equivalent Fractions

In this game, all you have to do is match the equivalent fractions. In this game, I matched everything and got it all correct.

The Beach

WALT: write a paragraph using personification

Trees danced to the sound of the howling wind. The tree branches were doing hand motions slowly. As I see huge waves fighting and retreating from the rocks, trying to get a better hit. Then as it get’s high tide, the waves come back with a better plan to swallow the rocks. As the waves comes back, all the rocks began to disappear to play hide and seek underwater.

Magic Sqaures

This is a magic square. All you have to do is just find the average of all the numbers. Then you divide it by 3, because it is a 3 by 3 square. I have attempted to figure out how to solve the level 5 magic square, but it was too hard, so Shanelle had to help me. I'd like to learn how to work with integers and whole numbers.

E Asttle Reading

This is my reading results. In my e asttle reading I got a 4B. To be at the national standard I have to get a 4A. And to get a 4A, I'll have to try even harder to achieve that. Also getting a 4A will be my new goal for next term.
