Measuring

L.I: To compare and measure areas of the surface by counting unit squares.
Today for maths we have got this rectangle sheet. We had to measure it with the unit squares. It was easy and hard because we couldnt get the unit squares of the edge of the rectangle. It was easy to do the big squares because we used the 10 blocks that are all sticked together. We couldn't copy anyone or we couldn't look at other peoples work. This was a fun task to do with our maths group. When we got our sheet we had to write inside the squares and write the number of how big is the rectangle. The 100 ones was cool to do cause we could finished those ones faster. We didnt measure the width or lenght we measures the area of the rectangle.

Today for reading we did visualising and questioning. When we did reading we had to pick two books for our scene. The books that i had was goosebumbs and simon the whitch.

We had to put our logo on the table that we were sitting on. My inquiry group was The Living Inquiry Learners. Mr Wong made a google form with our Inquiry Groups names on it. He made it so he can put the points on it when we get this thing right. All the groups had to do Questioning, Sculpting and Drawing. The first subject that we did was Drawing. Mr Wong will say draw the digestive system or the nervous system. After when all of the groups went up we then went with sculpting with play doh. Sometimes Mr Wong will say to sculpt a heart of an insect or sculpt a human's digestive system. After morning tea we went with questioning. Its is when the teacher asks you a question and you have to answer it start a way. The Quiz Boys said this question fast. Everybody's buzzer was to clap their hands two times above their heads. But The Wolves were taking the lead from all the other groups. They kept on getting the answer because they new what to do. Some of the questions were hard and easy. The quizzers was second for taking the lead. The Wolves had 6 points and the Quizzers hjad 4 Points and the other groups had 1 or 2. This was a awesome time doing the quiz i like it when we Sculpt, Draw and asked the questions. This was a fun time doing this with LS1.

We had to do this task by ourselves and we couldn't copy other peoples work.

Dialogue

L.I To write a narrative with dialogue
Today for writing we watched this book called The Silent Red Book. Its about a girl and a dog that have a journey together. They like to cuddle, Eat and play. First they meet where the dog was eating from the rubbish bin. The girl told him not to eat out of the rubbish bin. There were two people talking in this story and it was the girl and the dog. We should make up a name for this people in mind. We should name the girl Carrie and the dog trigger. They had a good journey together as friends. They must of stick together and be friends for the rest of the years that they have survived in. They would of been best buddies. They always will play and talk dance and sing and do other things that they like to do. Her mum wouldn't of mind to let there dog inside there house and in the bath tub.
