Paper and Plastic Fractions
LI: to relate fractions with division
We were learning about division. Firstly we learnt a bunch of vocabulary about division and fractions. Our task was a slide and a bunch of task to do. We had to rip papers into fractions or show a division equation with beans. In our task we had to answer questions like: what is the fraction, what is the unit fraction, and a bunch more.
Gymnastics
LI: to develop body movements of balance, rotation and strength
We first started off by playing Tag but we had to navigate around in specific ways like hop around with one leg. We then did some stretches. We did the L - Shape, Seal, Butterfly, Cat, Straddle.
We then did another rotation. But some of the activities were different.
Rotation One: There was a beam to walk forwards on then do a pose. We also had to do a Cat Leap, and a Scale on a line. Lastly there was another beam we had to do a forward roll on. We then had to do bunny hops on a beam.
Rotation Two: There was a trampoline to jump on and we had to go as high as possible then land, then front roll, then do the same thing but a dive roll. We then had to do a backwards roll. After we had to do a routine that was taught to us. Lastly jump of a board and do a 180 spin in the air.
Rotation Three: We had to do a handstand on a wall on bars. We then went on bars held ourselves on it. Next there were parallel bars and we had to hold our touching our bottoms then swinging. There was a beam and we had to do a Front, Back, and Side Support rotation. Lastly there were bars we had to go on and do shoulder push ups.

Table Mat
LI: to make connections
Making Connection is making a connection with the text with three things. Make a connection with the text with yourself, another text, and the world. We then had a table mat and we had to gather information about a book we read about. The book I read was lagoon hopping. In the table mat I had to write down keywords, key questions, some images (attributed), 4 facts, questions we would ask, and prior knowledge we already know about the text.
Attribution
LI: to learn how to attribute
Attribution is when you give credit to someone else's work, such as a picture, video, diagram and more. We have also learnt what copyright and what fair use is. Copyright is to use the owners work responsibly, we have to give credit to the owner, you can buy it if necessary. Fair use is getting permission to use, and you can use peoples work but only part of it. But if you do that you can't make any profit from it, and a bunch more.
How to attribute:
- Get your photo
- Link the original photo
- Then link to the owner of the work you are using

Weathers in Maori
LI: to learn the weathers in te reo maori
Matariki is Maori New Year. The whetu (Stars) disappear in August and the whetu reappear in June. The whetu are the Seven Stars or Sisters. We read two stories that were related to Matariki. We then had to make posters. There were two we had to pick from, counting the stars, or a poster about the weather in te reo maori.
