Term 2, Week 1 2021

 

During Term 1 we have been practicing our addition and subtraction knowledge through the online program called NumBots.  At the start, it was super easy but progressively got more challenging.

I am now on  Silver level of NumBots.  

I enjoy NumBots because there is a choice of challenges and story I love earning coins and moving up in the story I have learned quite a bit and improving each week.

What I find challenging is subtracting. I am a lot better at pulsing than takeaway. It is getting harder as I get closer to completing the story.

This week we have started TTRockstars.  This is an online program which helps us to learn our timetables.

I think that TTRockstars is really fun. We played it last year and when I recently played this year I realized I had slipped back in time. You have to answer timetables up to 12x12.

Play, Make, Create

 

The title of the story was up the river and it was a story about teamwork.

I worked with Desmond and we made a boat new design that can go in and out of the water.

If I could change something I would make the flag bigger. 

Play, make, create

 Desmond and I made a wheel spinner that has feelings on it.

you flick the arow and then it will land one of them 

I like all the different colors on it this was kinda easy.

we did a supernova.

Whetu Fun Day

 Whetu Fun Day

Last Thursday we had a Whetu Fun Day as our camp was postponed.  Our teachers planned a fun day for us instead!  We participated in a Whetu Amazing Race, a range of different fun rotations, a BBQ lunch, and play on the council playground then we finished the day with an Easter Egg hunt and an ice block.

My favorite part of the Amazing Race was running around Ngatea and stopping at places and doing challenges like throwing basketballs and solving puzzles and reading the codes of the eggs that we had to find. I worked with Desmond, Danny, Noah, kain, Brooklyn, and Todd 

The rotation I enjoyed the most was p.e games in the event center we got into groups and there were cones laid out everywhere and we had to pick up cones and under the cones are bean bags that are different colors and your team has a set of color that you have to collect. 

During the Easter Egg Hunt, I found my stick by the tree next to the track.at first, I was looking in the middle of the field but then I went to the tree and then traded it in for an easter egg and then an ice block.

Play, make create

 Desmond and I built a big tent out of Clicko and we made a BBQ but we don't have a photo it was really hard to make but we managed it we had one big tent and then a little tunnel to another room we had a long time to finish and we did it. it was hard trying to get the bits to connect it was easy finding all the pieces.

Maths mystery

This maths mystery I worked on with Desmond and we think we got the culprit right this maths mystery  was kinda hard our answer was Mollie this was fun the answers gave a big clue.
