BEDMAS

In my maths workshop I have been learning about BEDMAS. BEDMAS stands for Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction. I found it tricky at first but it got easier the more I practiced. You have to work it out in the order of the bedmas. This means check if their are any brackets then exponents and so on. Here is an example.

Sheep in a Paddock

In level  three maths strand we played a game called sheep in a paddock. The rules are, if you look out a window you can only see nine sheep, and it has to equal 25 overall. The main rule is you have to have one in each square. Here is an example.

Mr Archimedes Bath (the orange)

Using Mr Archimedes we learned what volume, mass, capacity, average, weight, and units of measurement is.  We read a book about Mr Archimedes so we could start off our learning. This is my slide. Hope you enjoy!

                                                                        Workshops:

My favourite workshop is maths because we have been learning about decimals. My writing workshop is fun to because we have been doing observations. Reading workshops are fun because we observe a picture. 

                                                                                Priorities:

Our priorities are Maths whizz, quickwrite, reading writing maths evidence, blog post and word work. My favourite priority is maths whizz. We have a check off so when we finish or work we check it off. I like priorities because they are really fun to do.    

                                                                              Leaf art:

My leaf art is of an autumn leaf. We used warm colours for the inside of the leaf, cold colours for the background. There will be a picture of my art on the slides. I really liked doing leaf art. We did leaf art with Koka Jo.

                                                                         Workshops:
Maths workshops are my favourite because I love doing borrowing and renaming. I think writing workshops great when we do observing. In reading groups we get to observe a picture, write down predictions and questions. If I am thinking that I am not going to finish my priorities I don't really like workshops.
                                                                 last day of being nine:
First off I had toast for breakfast. In break time I played with big parts. I finished all my priorities on 5th of August. I have inter school soccer on my birthday witch is quite cool. I have not had highlight of the day.
                                                                  After school activities:
Ballet, Swimming, Ballet practice I do it all. I love ballet because I get to dress up fancy and dance in front of heaps of people. Swimming one day could save my life and it is quiet fun. I like ballet better than swimming because I have been doing ballet since I was 4.

Term 3 Week 1

School holidays was very entertaining. My sister is 1 swimming group higher than me and we both swim for and hour, 2 times a week, in the holidays we get to swim in the same group. My mum got a new surfboard from sarah and johnny's mum. Me and my sister got to put a new surfboard sticker on our surfboard. Our surfboard brand is hendrix hers has a blue rim and my'n is bright yellow.

 I had a sleep over at my nana and poppa's house. They live in sterling park. I had stickers on the sliding glass door so I did not bang into it but we took them of, we have had them on the window since I was 3 so they were up to my hip. I slept in the spare bedroom with my sister Lucy.

In the holidays I jumped in a nine degree pool with my best friend Anais. We played a game called who can stay on the pool ring the longest without letting the other person tip you off. Anais won because I got to cold. We surprisingly didn't get sick. 

  

Week 6/5

                                                                   Math:

This year has been my favorite year so far at WBS. I had a maths workshop. The workshop was about how much we know about geometry.

I only knew a little bit of geometry. Like 2D and 3D shapes. I learnt about polygons and what they are.

that was in strand with Koka Joe. In a little workshop I did word problems just so the teacher could work out how we solve word problems.

                                                                  Writing:
For writing we did a word bank about the farmer's market and bees. That was not like what we have done for the last couple of weeks. We usually put a timer on and write about a picture on the screen. I think quick writes take a lot of your priorite time. In a writing workshop we had to write about something naughty. The naughtiest thing I have ever done is when I got money out of my wallet and went to the okitu store without my mum knowing and bought lollies.

                                                                    Art:
This term we have been doing a lot of art. These are the types of art we have done, monster art, my life island, pop art and 2020 goals. My favorite is my life island. We can do art after we finished all of our priorities. I absolutely love art do you like art comment down below? I finish my priorities to the best of my abilities the first time.

                                                                   Reading:
After morning tea and lunch we do fifteen minutes of silent reading. I have recently been into diary of a wimpy kid books. I have read cabin fever and I am reading the original one witch is diary of a wimpy kid. I do dancing so I read in week 1 hope in a ballet shoe.
