Agent Of Change



This is my agent of change DLO. In this I have put ways I can change the way I act in and out of school. I am striving towards these goals and I will try my hardest to complete these before the end of the year.

Finding The Missing Angles?




This afternoon I did angles and how to find them. We had to find the missing number to make 180 degrees. Then I created this DLO and explain one of the problems and how we solved them. I found this task good to come across because it will act as a reminder later on.

Today we got our Duffy books. In the first week of school we has to chose some Duffy books. I chose Amulet and a spirit animal book. I am looking forward to reading these books during the Easter break.I have already started reading the Amulet book and it is a very interesting book that I want to learn more about.

Character Description


The tunnel to another world ...



As I walked towards the forest I heard noises I’ve never heard before. It’s as if I have stepped into another world. The emerald green leaves and brown branches greet me and I gaze upon the muddy ground beneath my feet. In front of me there was a giant tunnel made out of trees that have been bent like a hula hoop. Then suddenly the fresh wave of the wet and damp wood hits me. Leafy vines laid under the spiraled looking tree, while birds started to peep through the bushes as there beautiful singing fills the space that surrounded me. I felt the brown crunchy leaves crackle under my feet, the mystical small orange flowers grip the trunk of the tree. Where am I? I wondered to myself.

Today I have created a character description. In this we had to describe the picture that was on the screen. I decided to act as the person describing the picture. The most sentences we could do was 12. I have a few sentences which makes it very short but interesting. I found this task good to re cap on.

To honor him for the amazing things he has done in return Nyjah, Chavda and I have created this DLO to show what made him famous and why. In this task we had to make sure we used or own words as this is our learning, and by making sure we attributed or photos.

Ordering Decimals



Today I was ordering decimals from smallest to biggest. Our teacher put two sets of decimals up on the board. We the had to work through all of the numbers to figure out which are smallest and which are bigger. This task was very challenging but it was good to re cap on what they are and what they look like. 


Tense


Today we did tenses. We learnt about the past, present and future tense. I found this activity fun and east to finish because I had already done something similar to this last year for writing. Nyjah and I helped each other out to complete this. I also found this helpful if I do this type of activity in the future.

Lost In A Book


Lost in a book…

Jessica had a power to get lost in books. She loved all types of books, short and long stories. She stared at the front cover as her eyes widened with awe. When she flipped to the first page of the book she became overwhelmed with joy just like in the fairy tale movies. The adventurous pictures filled the page as she was teleported to a different time. From playing with the mermaids to solving mysteries. Jessica felt happy and safe when she was reading. Deep in her book she was ready to flip to the very last page and find a whole other adventure awaiting her. Coming to the back cover of the book Jessica lays the book down to rest, suddenly her stories become dreams. Now she was reliving her fantasy and her favorite stories all over again.

Today we did 5-7-10 writing. In this week we had to write a character description. We were given 5 minutes to write as much as we can. Then in the 7 minutes we were given we had to talk with an partner and give informative feedback. Now we have 10 minutes to try and finish off our piece of writing. I found this task fun and brain challenging because finding what to write was easy, but putting it in sentences was hard.

Fractions


Today Nyjah and I re-caped on our fraction family of facts. Mz Kirkpatrick gave us a set of 8 questions to solve using our basic facts. We found out that we have to work on our 7 and 6 times tables. In the future I am hoping I get more of an understanding next time I do something like this.  

Scooter Quest


Today I started playing this math game. This game is called Scooter Quest. In this game your mission is to dilever papers to the right house. The twist is you have to work out what decimal number is correct.

5 - 7 - 10 Writing

Lost In the woods...


I find myself lost in the forest but this wasn't planned as usual. I do this every time we come here. Supplied with no food and no water. I was worried. Using the power of this map I will find my way out of this disturbing forest. How did I get here? Where did I go wrong? My parents must be very worried or worse freaking out. That's when I stopped trying to calm myself down. I stand there waiting until any idea comes into my confused and forgetful mind. I heard no birds chirping nor any water running. At this stage to hear anything would be great. Although I was lost I was trained to know these things. As I read my map back to front, left to right. Until I finally figured out the way to go. Only problem is I have to act fast before the sun goes down. I swear that the world was playing tricks on me. A few moments later I go the wrong way. I find myself going in one massive circle since have forgotten which way to go. I sit down to take a breather to recap the ways I’ve been already. Having another sneak peek at my map I finally find where I went wrong. My feet ache with pain because of walking what felt like miles was tiring. At this stage the sun had finally left the sky as the moon and stars peek through the trees. Coming out through the bushes I see the campsite I came from. I was found! Happy and excited I run towards the camper van.    

Today I have completed my 5 - 7 - 10 writing. In this piece of writing I had to create a story about a boy that may or may not be lost. We also had to find simple, compound and complex sentences in our writing, not only to find out how to use them in a sentence but to add an extra thought into our writing.


Character Description

Magic…

Dakota peeked through the bushes as her eyes grew wide with excitement. She had always had a thing for magic shows, anything that was appealing. Dakota stared into the open and thought she was dreaming. Who was this man with the brown hat? Watching him make the chairs float was the most spectacular thing she had seen in a long time. She had already experienced playing with magic, and she had already had a few tricks up her sleeve. She tied her hair back and walked up to this man with the magical touch.


Today for writing I did a character description. We were writing about the picture that was on the screen. My story is about a girl named Dakota who was peeking through the buses watching this mysterious man. The blue, pink and yellow highlighting is my simple, compound and complex sentences. We had to find these three different types of sentences in our writing or add them in of we wanted to.
