Simple Machine

LI: To use technological practices process to design a toy.

For Mrs Fisi’iahi’s Inquiry lesson, we were focusing on the three last technological processes. They were: build, test and evaluate. We used the required materials in order to build the AUV rover. After this, we tested and compared each group’s rover to see which group was able to scramble across the floor the furthest. Evaluating our results was the last step. 

I found this activity very fun because we have been given the chance to create our designs and make tests and evaluations. The results are in the DLO.

Current Event

  To find the important information in a current event.

This week for Reading we learnt about author's purpose. Authors write for a purpose/reason. These reasons are to Persuade, Inform, Explain or Entertain (PIE).First we looked at Kiwi Kids News to find a article. Then, we made a copy of the Current Events DLO and answered these questions.

in ths active i learn about how did the polfest came to New zealand i heard New zealand/Polyfest 

Eight-thousand secondary school students from 49 Auckland schools will take part in the festival, which concludes on Saturday evening. 

Summarising

 LI:To find who won

This week we learn about the yaut racing is about when the New zealnd Vs italy New Zealnd won 5 time and italy won 1 time then they had a match agian and the italy all most fell in the ocaen and the new Zealand won again.

Sentence starters

LI: To understand how to use a variety of sentence beginnings.

This week for writing we had to be in paris that can work togther then we make a DLO to show us what are Sentence starters a Sentence starters mean Similar to sentence frames, sentence starters provide a partial frame for students to begin their sentence or idea. However, sentence starters only begin the idea, and students must complete then me and my panrter work and talk to each other about what Sentence starters we will make.

ASB Cetwise

LI To Stop think.makewise degisions.

                             

This  week we went to room 1 for ASB Getwise and then we play a game called Getwise  be in groups of  5 and we were commnetcatea about what group name should we have our group name called money saver so we have to movatated to each other for a plan to fiji so first we had the fake money then we had to experiments the money to fiji.

            

                                

Compensation

 LI: To find the best strategy to solve addition problems

For maths this week, we have been learning about compensation. Compensation is rounding numbers to the nearest tens place. We have been finding out what the best strategy when solving addition problems, using the compensation strategy. 

Toys

LI: To strengthen connections to technology.

We have been learning about technological practice.  This week we have been learning about the 6 processes of Technological Design and how each one is important in the process of designing a product.

We are using the processes of technological practices to  design and build a rubber band- powered rover that can scramble across the floor.

Sir Isaac Newton

LI:To learn about Isaac Newton

This week in Reading, LS2 has been working towards Simple Machines. Apart of this, we were required to learn about Isaac Newton. Isaac Newton is a physicist, mathematician, theologian and a Astronomer. We were also required to create a DLO with the following questions: Why is his work important? What did he find out? How does his work connect to simple machines?

I learn about how Isaac NewTon movatating his simple machines and understanding more things with Isaac NewTon
