WALT: Solve division math problems

 For this week´s tasks, we had to do a blog about the maths we are learning about. There are cookies and you have to sort them out and put them into groups for some friends. My favorite part was to put the cookies into groups.  What I need to improve on is to get the answers straight away.

My Te Reo Maori tasks were to practice pronouncing vowel sounds and well known Maori words aloud. Next time I need to finish the last task to find the meanings of Maori words. 

 

All about me

WALT: Write about ourselves

Hi, my name is Diaz. I am 10 years old. I have 2 siblings, 1 brother and 1 sister. I have 2 dogs that are German Shepherds and their names are Buck and Jock. They are so cute, they love me so much and I love them to too.

My Caricature

WALT: Create a self-portrait Caricature

This is my caricature face.  We made it with Ms O'Dea, she is fun and amazing.  She taught us art and cool things like that.  Here is a photo of my self-portrait.

Tiny houses

WALT: Explore Kiwis lives and their stories of overcoming challenges

For this inquiry activity, I had to write about a tiny house.

I learned that you can make a tiny house on a trailer and you can move them around.  I also learned that some tiny houses can look small on the outside but inside they are big.

 If you want to look at tiny houses in NZ have a look at this site: https://www.buildtiny.co.nz/

Here is a picture of a tiny house that I think looks amazing.  What do you think?

Natural Wonders Around the World - Mexico's Natural Wonder: Paricutin Volcano

WALT: Increase our knowledge by reading a wide range of texts (Article a day - Book of Knowledge)

My task was to read an article about Mexico's Natural Wonder: Paricutin Volcano.  I enjoyed learning about the inside of this volcano. My next step is to add more information.

I learned that the Paricutin Volcano erupted. I also learned that In 1943, this volcano emerged from a cornfield in a village about 200 miles or (321 km) west of Mexico City.

Part whole thinking

 WALT: Understand that Part whole thinking means we break an object or group of objects into smaller parts.

Last week for maths I had to colour in a half of these shapes: triangle, square, circle and a rectangle.  It was easy.  Next time I will remember to write the fraction that goes with the shape e.g 1/2.
