This week I learnt how to multiply in albrega. At first I found it tricky, but then I did it again and got the hang of it. I think it's an easy way to work things out.

my new maths goal

My new maths goal

In my maths, I have got a new maths goal. My maths goal is to solve subtraction problems using place value to partition numbers. 

Today in maths we did some of that. We had to solve a problem such as 47 - 38 = ? I we had to solve this problem by working it out like this. 

47 - 30 = 17

17 - 8 = 9

First I halved the 38. then I simply subtracted 47 with the 30 in 38, which equalled 17. Then I subtracted 17 with the 8 in 38, which equalled 9. And there was my answer. It is a really simple and easy way to work it out and I would use it again.

Kiwi chick hatches from bad egg

A kiwi egg was found two weeks ago with a large hole on it, by a department conservation worker in Paraninihi, north Taranaki. 

He straight away took it to Rainbow springs in Rotorua, where they used a shell of a different kind of egg to cover the hole, and fixed it in place with masking tape. 

After 11 days of careful caring, the baby kiwi hatched successfully. He was named Fissure. I searched the word Fissure up on the internet, and I found out it meant "hole" or "small tear or crack" just like the hole in his egg! 

I found this article interesting because a kiwi is a native specie of new Zealand, and I found the new word interesting as well.

learning goal

My Maths Learning Goal

My maths goal is to learn groupings of of 10s and 100s in a 4 - digit number. I think I have improved, but sometimes I get them wrong. In my opinion, another goal of mine is to use my times tables and division knowledge to work out problems. I prefer to draw the question as it helps me work them out. 

 I like using white boards  as I can keep using the white board again and again. I like group working because if I am stuck I can always chat to a buddy to help me work it out. Sometimes in maths problems I get the answer right, but because every one else gets a different answer I think mines wrong. 

all together, I think I'm improving!!

kiwi kids news dino footprint found

Dinosaur footprint found in Gobi desert

A dinosaur footprint has been found in the Gobi Desert, which is in the central of Asia in case you don't know. It was longer than a meter, mesauring to an incredable size of 30 meters long and 20 meters tall. It  has been estamatied to be more than 70 million years old!

The owner of this footprint is a very rare kind called a Titanosaur, which is one of the biggest dinosaurs ever! Scientists are still looking for further information about this dinosaur. Maybe it'll    give us more clues about these creatures that roamed our earth millions of years ago....

I found this article very interesting, packed with a heap of information. It has made me look at Dinosaurs at a new angle..

BLOGGER REFLECTION

Camp was fun! I especially enjoyed the hydro slide. I enjoyed it because there were lots of twists and turns, and it was a great way to hang out with all my friends! 

My second favourite thing was crate climb. I got up to 13 crates! I really liked it because it challenged you to do you're best, to work hard, it involved team work, and most importantly, it taught you to never give up!

I enjoyed camp all together, and can't wait for next year!

This week, we had our last waterline lesson. It was very interesting! I never knew that one drop of water is made up of billions of tiny little drops of water made out of 2 hydrogens and one little drop of oxygen!

I enjoyed talent time, because I loved creating different pictures out of chalk! I think talent time is a great idea because children get to show their personality I can't wait for the next week's talent time!

RE Reflection

                                    RE Reflection
In RE we have been learning about the Sacraments, and the  people Jesus healed. I did one about a demon possessed man who Jesus healed because he knew that the man had faith in him. To me, that means that if you don't have faith in God, nothing will ever change. You must have faith and hope in God, and good  things will happen. I quite enjoyed it, learning more about stories that I didn't know lots about before. I wouldn't mind doing it again.

Writing Reflection

 In writing, we were creating our own super hero. The purpose of our writing was to use paragraphs and a plan to help us. I enjoyed the writing, but I think I could of used more descriptive language. I would like to do it again and see if I could improve with descriptive language. I think I did better with my paragraphs, though. but I think I could have made more. I enjoyed writing!

hi, Erin and Feryln and Amy!!! Are any of you at home?

using 2 times tables to solve 4 times tables.

I was learning to use my 2 times tables to solve 4 times tables. An example of this is: 4x12= 48. I solved it by making it into 2x12, which of course is 24, then I x2 on that, so the answer is 48. It is a strategy I would use again. I got one question wrong, which is 44x4. I did 2x44, which is 88, but I got the next part wrong. I did x2 which I wrote as 116. The real answer is 176, but I see where I went wrong. I should of done 80 + 80, 160, and then 8 + 8 = 16, then add them together, which is 176. I might need a little more practise on the bigger numbers, but I will probably pick it up very quick.

MATHS
I think that some times I say to myself "This is tricky. To hard. I can't do this!!!!" and then I give up on myself thinking "I'm totally bad at maths!!!" I don't like to believe it, but I know it's true. It doesn't help either when  people say "I'm BRILLANT at maths", because it makes me think "if they're good at maths it must mean I'm bad." But when I work out a problem, I think "this is soooo easy!!!" and then I feel like I can under stand every thing in the univers!!!

WRITING
I am extremely confident in writing. I don't need to say much for this, because I know that you, Mrs Ackerman, know I LOVE writing.

READING
I am very fast at reading and love it lots. I am reading the Harry Potter books, but that doesn't mean I don't get stuck on words. I like learning new words, so every so often I ask my mum what a word means that I have read in books.

ART
I love art, but an weird creative sort. I wouldn't say I am amazing at art. I just injoy drawing what ever weird idea pops into my head.

Erin, Feryln and Amy letter
