Quarantine Day 5

Hi, As you know our town has gone recently gone into quarantine this has opened many opportunities for me this today I started coloring in my silhouette, nearly finished my audio book and so much more this quarantine has given me to much free time I don't know what to do with myself. I've also learnt how to bake and cook some meals such as spaghetti bolognese, Marshmallow slice and more. The highlight of my week is my online guitar lesson and my silhouette, my silhouette is a drawing of my face with all the stuff I like and like doing you should try it. I hope this quarantine cant get any worse and we can go back to school refreshed for a new year of learning.

Have you cooked anything over quarantining? if so what did you cook?

Complex Words

in our reading groups, we have been learning about complex words like: literally, ironic, disinterested and grievances the word I didn't know was Tainui we had to make a brainstorm about the word. My brainstorm includes where I found the word in the paragraph and what I think it means it also includes the real meaning and another definition I found. Here it is :

Question time!

What word do you not know?

Practical Place Value

Place value

In our math workshop we have been learning about place value specifically addition and subtraction our follow up task was to make a poster for people who know nothing about place value. Our poster had to include 1 problem in the thousands and another for decimals here is my poster, it explains how to simplify place value and break it down.

Question Time

Whats your favorite strategy for math?

Cooperative Communication

In our PBL groups we have been learning about the 6c's this week we learnt about communication and negotiating with other peoples PBL groups. Our task was to negotiate bits of cards to make a full card and the most team with full cards wins. Our strategy was to find the last bits of card that we needed to complete a full card

I think that I can communicate amazingly with my group and get things done to a high standard.

Question Time!

Can you work well with a group if so how?

Crazy Collaboration

This term for our PBL we got put into groups. The people in my group are,  Me , Jude, Gianna and Samantha. For our PBL we are making a game called Chuck-a-Duck it is about chucking a rubber duck through a hole in a wooden board that's painted like a pond, our group isn't that hard to work with but the main problem was people forgetting to bring stuff in. we are finished. I think that our group needs to work on focusing and communication. When we are working,  Me and Gianna along with Samantha are the ones doing the most work because Jude gets a little distracted but recently Jude has stepped up and helped and now we are done. we have finished our poster.

Question Time?

Have you made any games if you have write them in the comments?
