Once upon a time in a land far far away there was
a king and a princess living an amazing life with there two children with the name of Jack and Jill. One day while the king and princess were away Jack and Jill went up a hill to visit the well and eat apples from the tree. Jack and Jill loved going there and loved the view from on top of the mountain and they always wished that day would never end. One day the king and princess decided they wanted to move because the kingdom was getting old so they left and never looked back but this was heartbreaking for Jack and Jill because they never saw their beautiful mountain again. To be continued. . .

multi-step word problem week 11

last week in maths we had to do word problems with fractions numerators and denominators and I thought it was very fun

caricatures

WALT: Draw a picture of yourself and emphasize something that stands out.

2 months ago in room 5, we were learning to create some art and it was called caricatures. Caricatures are basically self-portraits but emphasizing something that stands out in your face by making it larger or making it stand out more. The thing that I emphasized on my face was my nose and it looked pretty funny.

Te reo maori

WALT: Practice saying the following Maori words

For this task, I had to read the Maori words and then translate them to English words. To do that I went to the Maori dictionary online and translated the Maori words then typed the meaning of the English words.

The Grand Canyon

WALT:  Increase our knowledge by reading a wide range of texts.

I learned that the Grand Canyon stretches for 277 miles or 445.788 km.

I also learned that the cliffs of the Grand Canyon are made of brown, red, and yellow rocks and sand.

For this task, I had to read the article about the Grand Canyon and write 2 sentences about what I learned.  Next time I could read more of the text and write a little bit more of what I learned.
