Fraction art

This week I have been learning to do fraction. But to day we did our maths differently instead of writing it in our maths books we instead we had made art. The fractions I made it up to was  1 whole, 1/2,  1/4,  1/ 8,  1/16,  1/32, 1/64,  1/128,  1/256,  1/512,  1/1024, 1/ 2048,  1/4096.  The easy part was  cutting and gluing the paper onto the whole.  The easy part was  cutting and gluing the paper onto the whole. The thing I will change about my art is the shape.

Postcards

The past week we have been writing postcards for other schools in new Zealand we had to use a site called anagram maker it is a very productive site. We also had to get a item from the class and see, feel and smell the object, my object was a Dinosaur and I had to write the first thing that pops into my head then I write it in my book.

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.

Haka Haerenga

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.
