Bonjour and welcome to my blog. This week for the first week at school for term 3 we are doing statistics. Our goal is Display using more than varible and interpret information from graphs.
We collcted information about the birthdays in the hub. We made two graphs on spreedsheets and put them on a google drawing. Then we had to write two statements for each graph. I did some statements about how common the months were in the Tumu Hub.
When is your birthday?
Kia ora, welcome to my blog.. We went to Margaret Mahy playground for a school field trip. Our teachers were set up around the area. One of the stations was at victoria square, another at Margaret Mahy playground, one at Avon river, and one was looking at mats and feeding eels. We had a really fun time and we hope to go again.
On the 20th of May we went to Margaret Mahy playground. We went there because our PBL is about if someone came into our school we want them to know that we are a school in Aotearoa.
First we went to learn about the playground. We did this scavenger hunt with some things like: early settlers sailing ships (which were on the path) and tune (there were drawings of them by the water area.) We were all surprised that there was a song carved into this long path around a little bit of the playground.
After that we went with Mrs Bryce to have a look at these mats, they are things on the ground. There are 13 in Christchurch and all of them have different meanings. After that we tried to feed the eels but they did not take the cat food we tried to give them.
Third, we got to go on the waka! We had to grab an oar and the instructors taught us how to row all in time. We did two laps but not around the whole Avon river just by Margaret Mahy. My right arm hurt but it was fun overall.
Finally we went to Victoria Square with Mrs Brown. The first thing we did was have a little look around. Me and Mia went to go look at the paus, Māori traditional mats, and some statues and fountains. There were 3 mats. The one by the traffic light ment food and resources, the one by Charlie's ice cream van means the 9 trees that made the ngai tahu claim, and the last one was on this crossing meant water resources and health.
My favourite part of the trip was Victoria Square because I enjoyed learning about the mats and figuring out what they meant. I also liked looking at the fountains and statues, and learning about them.
Something I learnt was that on the Margaret Mahy playground there is a path and it has a māori song on it. Also on the path there are some of Elise locks written carved into the path.
The thing I found the most interesting was that all 13 mats in Christchurch mean different things. We saw 5 mats in total and they all had different meanings.
This trip has helped me with my PBL because I got some ideas on how we can show our PBL, and some of my ideas are: we could make a māori school song to carve into the ground. Another idea I had was to put some artwork of tuna and things like that on that grey fence.
Have you ever been to Margaret Mahy playground?
Kia ora welcome to my blog. This week for maths my goal was use muliplication and division to find fractions of a whole number. I made a create that has three questions and then next to it there is how to work it out. I used muliplication and division to solve the answer. For example a question would be 5/9 of 81 9÷81=9 9x5=45 so the answer is 45. Maybe if you want some more help on fraction muliplication and division you could get your parents to help you learn this.
Kia ora welcome to my blog. This week for the math task board we had make a pick a path about muliplication. In my pick a path I have 5 questions, they are all multiplication questions and at the end there is a redo quiz if you felt like you did not do great. Thank you for reading my blog post enjoy the pick a path.
Have you ever made or done a pick a path before?
Kia Ora, welcome to my blog. This week for maths we are learning about telling the time with 15 minutes. We had to create somthing that showed how to add 15 minutes to the time. We also had a problem solving slideshow to work through and the questions were about 15 minutes. I have a problem solving question at the end of my slideshow.
What is the answer to the problem solving question?
Kia Ora, this week for RE we are learning about Pentecost. Pentecost is the birthday of the church and it is the red time in the liturgical year. Pentecost is when the holy spirit comes down to the deciples. I have made a slideshow about what happens on pentecost day. I hope you like it and you learn some things about penetcost the birthday of the church.
Do you celebrate pentecost?
