Addition and Subtraction

Adittion and subtraction can be solved by using two stratefieas: counting on/back, rounding and compensating.

Counting on is adding forward using figure when the number is under ten. Counting back is subtracting usig fingers, when the number subtracded is under ten.

Rounding and compensating is rounding the added or subtracted number to the nearest tidy numbe, then compensating for the rounding. Compenstating is done by spitting the new number into the old number and the leftover.

Counting on/back and rounding and compenstating are easy strageis to use for addition and subtraction, when numbers et too big to be solved with basic facts.

First, we looked at two word and learnt the meaning they are.
  • rūma - Room

  • hive - a place where bees live


Afterwards, we anwsered a range of question using the comments.

I thought this was hard because we didin't know much about bees.

Party Popper Prototype

My company Design Builders were making a prototype of a party popper.


First we thought of the parts that we were going to use for our prototype. Some of the parts were a plastic cup, thick rubber band, and a paper stopper.


Second Design Builders assembled the parts of the prototype. When we assembled the party popper it stayed together and thought about some backups if this party popper bracks. 


Finally Design Builders tested the party popper. We tested the rubber band, The strength of the cup, and the paper stopper.


I enjoyed the assembling the parts of the party popper.  

LI: to make a prototype for testing.

Summaris

Summaries are when people use to collect infomation about what you learnt.

There are two types of summaris you could do one repeat, repeat is copying your mechanisms you all ready written.

The other type of summari is that you could write about giving your opinion about the mechanisms.

Summaris are usefull because people use summarys to inform people of what you did.

Balance Callange

First, we planned out what challenge we were doing. Our plan was to stand on one leg and swing our arms back and forth while holding the bottle.

Next, we tested out our challenge by avoiding our tipping point while making the bottles touch each other.

Lastly, we took a photo and recorded our results and we made our poster. 

I thought this was hard because it was challenging on figuring out what our plan was.



Prepostion in Teo Moari

I learnt the prepositons above - runga, below - raro, right - matau, left - maui, and waenganui - between.  

I also learnt how to say in front - mua and behind - muri

Mechanisms cause and effect

I learnt what mechanisms about causes and effects.

Mechanisms are to write many sentences about one topic.

First, to practice mechanisms I watched a video about how popcorn pops.

After that, I wrote some mechanisms that are related to cause and effect.

For the cause example the pan or microwave heats the kernel, so the moisture inside the kernel turns into steam. 

For the effect example the steam of the popcorn is trapped, therefore the popcorn can burst out of the kernel.    

I wrote the evolution of popcorn is when steam is trapped inside the kernal. The hull in the kernal then bursts into popcorn.

I wrote the cause of it poping then I wrote the effect of why and how did it pop.

Tipping Point

A tipping point is when your about to fall over but you catch your fall. 

I learnt how to use tipping points. 

To practice my tipping point the class played a game called Block Twister.

The game is basically Twister but we used our blocks on the floor to play the game.

I was hard because I struggled on balancing.  

Say to pass it over

I learnt how to say pass it over in Maori to help me learn another sayings in Maori.

We had a recap of what we did last week it was tenei, tena, and tera.

Time

Digital and analog time help uus know what time of day it is.

Digital time disply numbers for minutes and hours and use Am or Pm to tell us what time of day it is.

Elapsed time is how much time has gone by. Skip counting in 5's helps calculate how much time has elapsed.

Using an analog clock makes it easier to calculate elapsed time.


Manner

Manner are respectful language.

Manners are telling someone and showing your respecting them. We have to show our manners to evryone. 

We have to use our manners all the time it shows that you respect everyone.

Teamwork

Teamwork is a term to describe a group of people working togther to achieue a goal. 

Teamwork consists of three main mechanisms. 

Commuication is talking to your teamates and helping them in any way in a game. So when the team need's help you could help them. An example in dodgeball is when someone needs a ball and they call to pass the ball to them.

Coopartion is working togerther as a team. Like people commuicating and listening to each other. Like people in dodgeball your teamates could hand you a ball.

Callaboration is basicly all of the three C's. People sharing the ball passing it talking and to them. Like people helping, sharing, and listening.  

(This is the mechanisms of Callaboration.)


(This is the mechanisms of communiction.)


(This is the 
mechanisms of Cooperation.)

To be successful as a team all there mechanisms need to be implemented throughout the activity.



SSR Selfie

I read one chapter of mega machines record breakers.

In the book mega machines record breakers it is all about the biggest machines and the smallest machines. Maybe about engine and how they all work, and people breaking reacords around the world.

I enjoyed this book because I learnt facts from this book. Makes me learn how engine work.



Basic Facts boxes.

I completed basic facts boxes adition up to ten. The basic facts boxes challenge is to answer the questions as quickly as you can.

My time was 3m 46s and 45ms. My score for the speed demon challenge it was 100 out of 100.


I have to improve on getting faster at answering my questions.







Making Connections

Making connections is when you follow on with a book and make a connection 

Making connections are connections with yourself, another text, and the world.

Text to self is what happen to you that happened just like the book.

Example is the Duck gave water to the horse. In the story little red riding hood  little red riding hood gave her grandmother food.

Text to text is what happened in another text in another book that happened like it.

Example is The Duck returned the food to the villagers. In the story Mr. Fantastic fox he brang back a lot of food for his family.

Text to world is taking a text from the book and compeareing it to somthing popurler in the world.

Example is The Duck tells the Rat that she has a sister with alot of junk-food. In boxing you could make a stratigy and trick the other boxer.

Text to text, Text to self, and text to world should be remembered so people could look back at them self, look into another book, and in the world.

Private vs Public Information

Information that is public should be harmless on the internet.

Public informaion is sharing things online to the world or for lots of people to see.

Information that is private means you don't want to share it with other people.

Public and private are good to remember because you could remind yourself of doing the right thing on the internet.

Information that is private should be kept off the internet.

Fact or opinion | The Highway Rat

 I did a fact or opinion about characters in The Highway Rat 

First I watched a movie to get what the story was about. 

Next I had to write some facts of what happened in the story. Then I wrote the opinions of why I thought that they were doing what they were doing.

Afterwards we needed to write adjectives to describe the character traits from our opinions.

I thought this task was good because it makes our vocabulary better.

Multiplication

I split big amounts of numbers into two, three, and five.

First I took a big group of counters and we never knew how much counters there were. 

Next my group and I split the big group of counters into three.

Then we counted the number of groups.

Multiplication is a faster way to count an unknown number.

I used multiplication to find out the unknown number.

I thought this task was good because it teaches kids how to count faster.

Place value and saying numbers

Place value is a system that groups numbers based on their size.

The position of a digit determines its value. When we say numbers we group then within the same house. For example 15709 has fifteen thousands, seven hundred and nine ones.

 

Understanding our base 10 place value system allows us to pronounce big numbers properly. It also allows us to identify numbers before and after.

The Highway Rat Visualisation

I visualisation about The Highway Rat.

A visualisation is a picture in your head that helps you draw.

Visualisation's are important because it helps you think and helps you draw. 

The story was about a highway rat was taking other animals food. Then a duck tricked the rat by trapping him in a cave. Then the duck got everyone's food back.

My drawings have my rat standing on four legs and Max's rat is standing on two legs. 

Visualisation is important because it helps you with what you should do.

The 3 Ps

We learnt about the 3 Ps in the treaty of Waitangi and how they apply to our learning.

First Mr Ogilvie introduced the 3 Ps in the treaty of Waitangi. They are protection, partnership, and participation. 

Then in groups we wrote statements about the 3 Ps on LS1. LS1 figured out the 3 Ps are all  connected.

After that we used our group ideas and thought about how they connected to me.

I chose these 3 statements because they will help me be successful with my learning in LS1. I should be in participation because if I get a chance I should take it.

Basic facts chart

I created a basic facts chart using Google Sheets. 


I started finding some number bonds in doubles.


Then after finding some basic facts number bonds I recorded it on a spreadsheet.


Next I created a chart by using spreadsheet and short cuts like copying and pasting copying and pasting is a good tool for when you need to move something.


I thought that this task was very hard what I liked about this task was the number bond's.


LI: to learn number bonds and doubles.
