Artwork

 LI: to learn how to use shapes to make artwork

For our Reading we were learning about artwork, using different art tools and using shapes to create pieces of artwork. The artwork I had recreated was "Girl with a pearl earring". It was fun doing as I got to recreate it with tools on Google Drawing, being able to trace certain parts as well as create other parts with the shapes available on the app. It was fun doing, as we got to use other colouring tools such as Coolour. 

Geometry Definitions

LI: to learn about Geometry

 

This week for Maths we continued on with our lockdown learning. We are learning about geometry. Geometry is a branch of maths which focuses on measuring and comparing shapes. For this task we defined different geometry terms and showed an example of them for example circumference which is the perimeter of a circle.

Find, Explain, Fix

LI: to find the most efficient strategy

For Maths we were learning about how to locate and identify errors, then how to fix the problem. It was really fun doing, and I was able to show my strategy. It was especially fun doing, being able to work with my friends. The questions we had were multiplication, addition, and BEDMAS. BEDMAS stands for Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction. 

Goodbye Poems

LI: To write a list poem that describes a topic by painting a picture of opposites with your words.

For Writing we had Mrs Sheena show us and teach us a new poem. This poem related to Lockdown talking about the pros and cons of lockdown. We were able to do talk about what we missed and what we didn't miss during lockdown, this helped us express our feelings and emotions about lockdown through the poem. It was fun and interesting learning a new poem, as we were able to add different language features and do this with our friends. 

Writing Words

LI: to find the most efficient strategy

As a group we worked on papers to write our thoughts more clearly. Our strategy was to add the first 3 numbers (657, 493, 1183) and get an answer of 2333, we then subtracted that number from 6000 to get our final answer of 3667. We then created a DLO of our understanding. It was really fun doing and solving this problem with other people like our friends

5 facts about Geese

LI: to learn and research about Geese

For Reading we read a text, and answered questions about the text to enhance our skill in comprehension and inference. For our task we made a DLO (Digital Learning Object) about Geese showing 5 facts about them. It was fun doing as we were able to do this with our friends, and it was very interesting learning different facts about these geese. 

Handshakes

LI: to use the most efficient strategy

This week for online learning I worked with a group of four people to solve this question. We worked out that each person would shake hands with 53 other people since there are 54 people and you can’t shake hands with yourself. So we multiplied 53x54 to the answer which is 2862. It was really fun and interesting to do when we got to do it wih our friends, solving this together.
