Strategy

 My group  completed a repeated addition and skip counting task.


First we connected some unilink cubes to show how many groups there were. For example I had 6 $5 notes . How much do I have? The question is asking what is 6x5. I chose 6x5 not 5x6 because the 6 represents how many groups there are and the 5 represents how many objects there are in that group. 


Second we took photos of the uni link cubes to show the groups we made.  


Finally we answered the questions on the last slide.  


I enjoyed this activity because this will help me with my maths.

Media

 I learnt about media and diffrent kinds of media.

Media is a way of communiating but only using audio, images, pictures and text.

For example a newspaper is a type of media that is using images and text.

I enjoyed this task because this will help me when I am trying to tell the diffrence in media.

What Is Persuasive

 I made a persuasive poster.


First I wrote two numbers and when they are flipped they are different numbers. For example 69 and 96. 


Next I wrote about what persuasion is. Persuasive is about convincing someone into believing you.  


Finally I wrote step by step on how to argue.  


I enjoyed This task because it will help me when I am arguing.

Water Safety

I learnt how to be water safe.


First we did front sculling first, back and forward. To do a front scull I moved my hands side to side in front of me and also kick your feet. 


Next we did back sculling. To do back sculling you have to lift your legs in front of yourself and push with your hands. 


Finally we did back sculling and front sculling with a kick board to help us float.  


I enjoyed this session because this will teach people if we are in danger in the water.

My group worked on a statistical Investigation.


First We answered a question . The question was about how many blog posts our group has in total. The answer is 283 blog posts altogether.


Next we made a bar chart and a pie chart.  


Finally We wrote three statements which are our answers.  


I enjoyed this activity because I wanted to see how much my blog post would have with other people. 




Olympics

 My partner, Mahdi, worked on an olympic task.


First We compared this or that which means what does the olympics have and what PBS has. We compared  4 this or that which are motto creed/Whakatauki, olympic flag and PBS logo and values. For the motto the olympic motto is Faster, Higher, Stronger - Together and the PBS motto is Strive To Achieve.


Next we completed similarities and differences. We completed 4 similarities and differences. The olympic creed has some common things with PBS which are both meant to motivate people into learning new things.


Finally I made my own logo. It represents my family. 


I enjoyed this activity because we got to learn ancient sports and modern sports.
