Maths learning doubling and halving

 Hi!

This year with miss wilton We are using this new website cslled the maths hub and in the maths hub there are videos and questions and the videos are the learning part and some of the questions are the practise it part and there are other questions that are the prove it part now im on the prove and so we had to use a stratagey and the stratagey that I was using was doubling and halfings

For example: 6 x 50 So you go 3 x 50 = 150 and then 150 + 150 = 300 so 6 x 50 = 300

24 ÷ 4 =12

65 ÷ 5 = 13

30 ÷ 6 = 5

48 ÷ 8 = 6

14 x 50 = 650

20 x 17 = 340

26 x 4 =  104

34 x 5 = 170

Easter Tridum

Hello! 

Juring holy week we made some art so we had to draw pictures the relates to what had happened to jesus or what he did. so we drew two pictures my pictures were the cross with a crown on top of it and my other picture was three crosses on a hill. once we finished drawing them we colored them in with pastel. after we finshed coloring them in with pastel we rulled the peice of paper. so we got our ruler and rulled across the top of the paper every 15cm we had to put a little line. then we made a line rite down the page where the little lines were. when we finshed we cut where the lines were so that made little strips of paper. when I finished doing that I made the picture by putting the pecies of strips where they needed to be. once I finished that I got a bigger sized paper I put the first srip from one of the drawings on the side of the paper. then I got the first peice of paper from the other drawing and then put it next to the other peice of paper thats on the peice of paper. and repeat that then once there all glued. I had to fold up the big peice of paper like a fan then when you look from one side you see one picture then when you look the other way you see the other picture you drew.

Stop motion hangout

 Hey guys!

So this morning we were using a toolkit. What we had to do was follow the link that Miss Wilton sent us. It took us to the toolkit and you had to pick what you wanted to learn about. My first choice was stop motion. So, we had to click the search button on our keyboard and then it showed up with all of these apps and one of them said stop motion. and so we clicked on it and Micah told everyone to go get a peice of paper. Then we faced the camera to the paper and we took pictures to make the paper look like it was spining around by its self. so after we took the pictures we could play our video and it looks like the paper spun around by its self. stop mtion was my favorite because the hangout was clear and stop motion was easy to use.

Would you like to try this app? 

Why do you want to try this app?

spam commenting

 Hi readers!

Last week during Cybersmart time we have been looking at how we reply to comments on our bolg. we used a program called book creator to help to help teach others what a spam comment is and how to have an online conversation. You can find a link to the leason here. 

What I now know about spam on blogs is that it is often left by someone Unknown or a spam bot. it will have links to advertising inapproprait content. If I  think there is a spam on my blog I need to make sure I do not click on the links and tell your teacher as soon as possible. There is a helpful video on the slide deck
