Worms

This week we have been working on Pangarau. We have been learning about worms. In this math game you need to draw a systematical table  to record my learning. Then you get a hundreds sheet and colour in 34,35,36,37,44,45,46,47,54,55,56,57,64,65,66,67 in any colour. Then you need to use 3 of the same coloured blocks and 1 different coloured block then you have to try and find different shapes for the worm but the trick is that you have to keep the head on the colour numbers.  When you play this game you have to add the numbers that the worm is covering then when you  all of add them all up and the you get the total. My favourite part about this game was find different shapes that worms can make. The hard part was trying to get as many shapes as possible. My next step is to learn other ways to calculate my answer.

Today the whole school went to Opua for a trip to see Hekenuku busby waka. Why did we go there because we had to learn about voyager, hekenukumai busby and his wife Ngahiraka. The boats name was named after Hekenukumai's wife Ngahiraka mai tawhiti he also had first waka named Te Aurere. How was it? It was a great experience because it was the first seeing one of Hekenukumai busby waka.
