Multiplication

 Multiplacation is a fast way of adding the same number many times. The two, five and ten times tables are example of multiplacation.

The two times table are multiplying two by number of groups.

The five times table are multiplying five by number of group.

The ten times tables are multiplying ten by number of groups.

The times tables are an easy way to remember basic multiplication equations. The next times table learn are the three, four and six times tables

Fact and Opinion

We learnt how to use facts and opinions to understand the characters in a book.

First we listened to the book the The Highway Rat. 

Then we wrote the facts that happened in the book for our character. We then used our opinion to explain why the character might have done that.

Last we wrote the adjectives for the opinion to describe the character trait.

I enjoy the fact and opinion about the duck.

Visualisation - The Highway Rat

Visualisation is creating  pictures in your head. This helps understand what we read.

Highway Rat is about a rat who is greedy and steals food. He learns a lesson and everyone lives happily.

My Visualisation is different to other because I did little bit of a design for it.

We have different Visualisation because our mind was different.

Place Value & Saying Numbers

 Place Value is a system that group numbers based on their size.

The position of a digit determins its value. When we say numbers we group then within the same house. For example 15709 has fifteen thousand, seven hundred & nine ones.

Understanding our base 10 Place Value system allows us to pronounce big number properly. It also allows us to identify numbers before after. 

Mihi Whakatau

Mihi Whakatau is a Maori term for a formal greeting.

Mihi Whakatau is traditionally used for welcoming introductions and openings. It is undertaken by the Tangata Whenua (local inhabits).

The Mihi needs to acknowledge the significant aspeds to the place. The Maunga (mountain), Awa (river), and Iwi (tribe) are generally used.

Introducing Ingoa (name), Oku Tipuna (ancestral place) and where you live is important for the audience to understand the position of the speaker.

Manuhiri is the term used to describe or group the visitors that are being welcomed.

It is important to end with warm visitors so the visitors know that there is no hostility in 2 groups being together.

Being respectful of the land, the people and the purpose of a visit will ensure long lasting relationships and connections.

Basic Fact Boxes

 I learnt Basic Facts Boxes.

First we go to the sheet boxes and we have a stopwatch.

Next we answered all of the questions and then we put them in a slide.

Last we wrote our basic facts boxes and stopwatch time. 

I didn't get one wrong because I trained a lot. Next time I will try to answer the questions faster.

AFL Training

We went to the field and meet coach Jack and we did skills in Aussie Rules.

First we were shown how to pass the ball and then we practised.

Next I learned how to kick the ball and we practised that, as you can see in the picture.

Last we used our passing skills to play octopus.

We played kicking the ball to hit the teacher or coach.

I enjoy playing octopus using Aussie Rules passing.
