Basic Facts Boxes


LI: To remember basic maths facts. 

I did the speed demon challenge up to 20 and my time was four minutes fourty nine seconds.
I enjoyed answering the questions and hope that I can do it by the time 3 minutes come.

SSR Selfie



LI: To summarise and retell a text.

The book I read was about force & motion and the physics to it. The book I read had a lot of new words for me like: Lubrication, friction and more. I enjoyed the book and learnt new information about force and motion. 

Reading | Theatre | Play

LI: To build vocabulary and expression.

We were doing plays based on the theatre subject. The play I did was 'In Training'. I enjoyed my parts the most because I got to take part in the play. I think the most difficut part was remembering the time I went on the stage. I think I should change my timing and expression. I think my oral language did improve because I was more focused on it. I think it would help if the teacher would tell me what to do during the stage presence.

Maths | Capacity








LI: To measure and work out different capacities.

Capacity is how much an object can hold. We had to complete an slide about measuring capacities and word promlems. We solved the word promblems after the slide task. To solve the word problems we used paper and vivid. Mr. Wong gave us guiding questions which were: What is the promblem asking you to figure out, What information do we already have, Can you solve this in one step.

Kiwi Sport | Gymnastics

LI: To develop body movement of balance, rotation, & strength.

Today the year fives went to the hall for the fourth gymnastics session. The first thing that we did was get into our stretches.

Stretches:
1. L Shape: Lifting your arms up to the ceiling then putting you legs in front of you.

2. Seal: Putting you back straight and looking towards the floor.

3. Butterfly: Putting you feet together and flapping it up and down.

4. Cat Stretch: Stretch your back like a cat and stretching your head until you can see the wall behind you.
5. Straddle: Position your legs to face outwards like a split shape.

6. Back, Front, Side Support: Position your back to be straight and your back towards the floor with your hands pointing to your feet and do the same with the others.

7. Candle shape: Lift your legs using the muscles and place your hands on your back then put your elbows on the floor.

Activity:
After that we went on to the rotations. The rotation parts were the:
Balancing station, the Postion station, and the Strength station.

Rotations:
At the balancing station half way on the beam we had to take a big jump and then walk back on to the stage, cartwheel along the blue beam, do the foward roll off the stage, do the bunny hop, and then do the roll on the beam.

At the position station we had to run up to a trampoline and do a straight jump land on your feet then do a forward roll after you have jumped, do the backwards roll on a right angled triange, do the backwards roll on the mat, then do the candle shape on the floor, then the two leg handstand twice and do the staight jump.

At the strength station we had to do a handstand on a bar, do the back/front/side support on a hexagon stick, balance of the parallel bars, lift yourself over the bar and then do mini pushups on a cube.

Reflection:
I enjoyed this weeks session and I thought the back/front/side support on a hexagon stick was difficult to complete.

Learn, Create & Share | Explanation | Procedure




LI: To use key vocabulary to unlock sentence & text structure.

An explanation is how it works or why it happens. A procedure is how to learn, how to make or how to share something step by step. The structure of an explanation is TIMES (Title, Introduction, Meaningful information, Ending, Summary). The structure of a procedure is TEMPS (Title, Example, Main points, Picture, Steps). We had to write a explanation and a procedure. We used google docs and our Netbooks to complete this. We picked out three standing words that we think of when someone says the words: Learn, Create & Share. I enjoyed this activity.

Meme | Collaboration



LI: To collaborate on a task.

Collaboration is when people join together to get work or something in general complete. We had to make our own meme with a person about collaboration. I was working with Bella. We had to make a meme from scratch. We used a google drawing and a webcam to create our meme. I enjoyed creating a meme.
