Math Learning Diary.

Kia Ora!
Welcome,

Today i will be sharing something with you that I have been focusing on for the past few days.
I have created a Math Learning Diary.

This means that I have gone back through all of my wok book around the past term.
I have written down how I think I have gone with it and why I think that. Next I went back through and did some learning games to refresh my memory of all of the things that I have been learning.
I really did find this interesting and I liked to see my strengths and weaknesses around maths.

I think that My strength in math ewas rounding decimals. I have played one of rounding decimal games and I still think that I have mastered this subject. I haven't gotten any answers wrong and I am extremely proud of that.

My favorite subject in math is dividing decimals. I enjoy this because I find it a challenge but not too much of a challenge and I really like that. I was working on this subject last week and the reason I really enjoyed this is because I really enjoy doing the chunking method which is used very much in this technique.

What is the chunking method?
It is where you use times tables to divide.
You use multiplication, Addition and Subtraction.

I hope you enjoy my math diary!




Thank you all for coming onto my blog!

 I Really hope you all will come onto my blog again and please leave a positive, thoughtful, helpful comment I love to read them and I will respond asap!

Critical Learning

Kia Ora!
Welcome!

Today I will be sharing with you some of my critical learning around the boy and the striped pajamas.
I have done multiple blogs about this topic and I am super excited to share with you some of my work.

I have been working with some classmates and we have all talked about some of the questions about the story that we found important. We have created a way to share our questions and answers and I have also done an activity to prove one of my points more.
We call this critical learning.

My favorite part about this was thinking deeper into some of my favorite questions about the book understanding all of the text and the hidden things inside.
I really enjoyed creating the image to prove my point and I am also really proud of it.
I found it challenges with question three I found it hard to think deeper into that question but I am proud that I overcome that challenge.



Thank you all for coming onto my blog and I hope to see you all here again soon.
Please leave a positive thoughtful helpful comment about my work and I will read and reply to all of them!
Thank You!

Poems! Family

Kia Ora!
Welcome!

Today I will be sharing with you my poem that I have done.

I have created a free verse poem. This poem is a lot different form any other poem that you have read. Free verse have not poems or rhymes. There are some pros and cons while wearing this but I really had fun.
Free verse are almost like a story but they aren't they usually tell a story but not always. We read a poem about a poem and we got that ideras. We all created two poems now both very different.

We have also done some research on two different types of poem writers and then we used on of there layouts and created our own poem.
Both of these poets have one thing in common. they are both performance poets. They all film their work and use different ways to make it real well. They use peo[ and their voice and their emotions to create an interesting story and they do it so well you can hardly look away.

I have created a slide with images and my poem and have given performance poetry a try and filmed myself reading it.



 Thanks you so much and come on my blog again please.
What is your favorite type of poem?
What do you think I can improve on. Leave a comment down below and I will reply to all of them!

Home Learning Book Report!

Kia Ora!
Welcome!

Today I will be sharing with you all my book report on a book I have been pushing on a lot reaspintly.
If you have seen some of my recent blog post you could guess which one it is.

I have created a google slide sharing my report on the book. I have included the title of the book along with the author and I have used a layout that we used last year to shape my book report better and I have added in how I felt about the book.

My favorite part was finding interesting quotes for the book, I liked this because I go to find out my favorite parts of the story and then share them. I found it challenging to pick and choose only a few items of each part because I really want to add in a lot of things and it was hard to cut them down.





Thanks!
I really appreciate you coming onto my blog and would love to see you all here again. Please leave a Positive, Thoughtful, Helpful comment and I will be sure to read all of the.
What did you think about my slide? How can I improve?

Auschwitz ( The Boy In The Striped Pajamas )

Kia Ora!
Welcome!

Today was the last day for the novel study ( The Boy In The Striped Pajamas ) had to be finished. SO I gotta create an extra activity based on some of the things I have learnt about in the book. I have looked in deeper around Alfdorf Hitler and The concentration camp mentioned a lot in the book ( Auschwitz)
I have learnt about a lot of the things that were mention about in the book but because the Two main characters were young and not very sure what was going on lots of bits and pieces were missing.

I have made a small google drawing discussing the main 6 points in the story and the deeper meaning of these three things. Such as some of the charters and some of the events that occurred.
I found some of the facts and info really interesting and sad. I am glad that we learnt from our mistakes and are now not like that.

My favorite part was digging deeper in my favorite parts of the story and sharing them with you all.
I found it challenging to simplify the words that I read and turn them into my own.

-ENJOY!




Thank you all for coming onto my blog. Have you heard about some of this info? Have you read the book?
You can go to the camp Auschwitz and go for a tour.
I really can't wait for some of your feedback!
Thank you all again!

Red Wine ( the Boy In The Striped Pajams)

Kia Ora!

Welcome Back!

Today I will be sharing a small quick slide I have made to share with you some of my reading work.

If you have seen some of my other reading blogs then you will know what I am talking about if not I will explain. I have been doing some novel study around the book The Boy In The Striped Pajamas . I will be sharing the two responses I have done over the past 4 chapters. 

Those chapters have made many questions pop up but also close some as well.

my favorite part about novel study is reading the book because I have always really enjoyed

reading and I really liked creating pictures based around the book and the chapters I have read.

We also have to answer lots of questions which helps me understand the book more.

I have really enjoyed Novel study and I am super sad that it is sadly coming to an end this friday but

I would recommend this book so much it really is amazing and I think that it should be shared more

and if you have read it what is your favorite part?

Enjoy!

Thank you all for coming onto my blog. I would really appreciate some comments 

on what you thought about the book and some of my responses. I really hope you come

 onto my blog again!

A Trip In Dr Whos Tardis!

Kia Ora!
Welcome Back!



Today I am sharing another one of my many home learning blogs. Today I will share with you a quick powtoon with 5 slides sharing where I would go, forward or backward. What one would you chose? Why?

You could share your info on a Powtoon, Animaker, or Biteable. Do you have s favorite out of those three options?
I desided to use powtoon because I haven't used this learning tool in a loooong, time.
I forgot a little bit on how to use powtoon.
I eventually figured it out an I really enjoyed using powtoon and I think that I will use powtoon more in the future and I will try and make more home learning blogs with powtoon.

Please watch and enjoy.


                 



Thank you all so much for coming onto my blog and please leave a Positive, Thoughtful, Helpful comments so I can work on and improve my work so I can have better blog post in the future.
What did you think about the powtoon? Do you know any any tips for my powtoon to improve it.
THanks again!

Karyn Wilson!

Kia Ora!

Wow! I am so excited to share with you guys who just came to our class Rimu in YMS.

I am so excited to share with you Karyn WIlson!

She was so enthusiastic and a wonderful reader. I loved listening to her brand new book that not many people have read yet, this is because it is coming out in one week! Keep a Lookout!

I loved listening to the story of what she was inspired by and how she got into writing children's books from her daughter and always reading them to her. She got inspired to write her first book every second she got and they sold out so quickly.

Please watch my DLO to learn More!


Thank you all for watching my DLO and Coming onto my blog. Please give me feedback on my post and I hoped you enjoyed!
Please write a Positive thoughtful helpful comment I would love to read them.

Today I will be sharing with you all today another one of my many homework blogs.

I have done one just like this before on my blog but I have now created it in a more fun quizz like  way to make my work more creative and interesting. So I have conducted a slide to share my author and book and my book report.

Incase you haven't already came to the conclusion of what I am doing I will tell you again. So I have Made a Book Report on one of my recently read books. I have shared my thoughts and feeling about it and I really hope you all enjoy.

My Favorite part about this was definitely making the quizz like part you will see in the near future.
The part that I found challenging was finding interesting quotes from the story by this I mean scary, sad or happy parts of the story to intrigue the reader ( you guys)
