Hunter's Prototec Graph

From the start of Week One, Term Four, Rimu Class started doing Prototec almost everyday. Prototec is a website where you do a Basic Facts test and you can choose to do it on your Maths Stage. Here is a link to Prototec to try for yourself. If you don’t know your Basic Facts it will be very difficult to understand Maths. 

We practise most days so these facts will sink into our minds! Here is my Prototec graph for the last 6 weeks. I did Stage 6. I thought the hardest part was adding and subtracting to 1000. I find it easy and hard. This is good because my brain is growing. I would recommend it!

The Coat

Here is part of my Novel Study. I also made a dust jacket and a Story Web. It is on another blog post. I found it hard to get motivated to finish it, but once it was done I felt proud of myself.

Cycle Safety!

Cycle safety. This week the Yr 4, 5’s and 6’s did cycle safety. We did cycle safety Term 3 Week 6 on  Monday Tuesday and Wednesday 2016.What I found easy was the give way sign stop sign Traffic Lights and Roundabout. What I found hard was to keep close to the kerb.
 

My First Cantatamaths Exhibition Entry

This year we entered in the Cantamaths exhibition. I was doing my Cantamaths on world record Olympians. I chose 5 sports and I did: 200m sprints, cycling, shot put,High jump and long jump. I found it interesting that the times were getting faster and faster. Is this because:

1. People are training harder and differently?
2. Because the bikes could of changed?
3. Do the coaches know more about the sports?

What I found hard was finding the information on the iPad. I really enjoyed making my book.

Primary school should have more adventurous playgrounds

Primary school should have more adventurous playgrounds. This is my speech. I was working on speaking at an appropriate pace- not too fast and not too slow. I felt a little nervous but when I had finished I felt happy. next time I want to work on looking at the audience. To do this I want to memorise my speech.

THE COAT

This term I am reading a chapter book about 'The Coat'. We are all doing a Novel Study and we get to choose our own book that we haven't read before. I have just begun my first activity. It is a dust jacket which means I am designing my own cover for the story. I like how this story has been written. 

My Timetable this Term!

Here is my Term 3 timetable. It is full with things that I need to do. Everybody's timetable is a bit different. You can see my goals at the top. I am really looking forward to skiing and completing my 2nd STEPS book. I am onto STEPS B. I hope you like my timetable!
