HPE | What is Team Work
This week we are learning about Teamwork.
First we played a game called Blind Fold Cone Challenge. My partner is Emmanuel. I was blind folded and my partner had to tell where I have to put my cone it was hard because I thought I was going to crash to the wall.
Next we played a game Blind Fold Dodge Ball. I was with Emmanuel and it was hard to throw the beanbag while blinded folded and It was hard because it was loud I couldn't hear my partner.
Lastly we played Hunger games Dodge Ball we had to be in a square and dodge the ball I keep on getting out because I close to the person that has the ball.
I enjoyed these games because I got to use Collaboration, Communication and Cooperation.
Compare and Contrast | Inquiry
I did Compare and Contrast of cultural dances.
First I had to chose which dances I wanted to do. I did Kapa Haka and Hip Hop.
Next I wrote the similarities between Kapa Haka and Hip Hop.
After I I wrote down my differences. One of my differences I wrote down was that Hip Hop is a culture of fashion, language, music, movement, visual art and expression.
I enjoyed this activity because I learned lots about Kapa Haka and Hip Hop. Its interesting to see how something which seems so different can share cultural information.
SSR Sefile 2021
I read 34 pages of How to be an International Spy.
First I had to read the book for 15 minutes.
Next I write 3 main facts about the book and find 3 words I did not know.
I disliked this book because I already knew about the topic and it didn't add more information to the topic.
Fact and Opinions l Reading
I complete a task called Fact and opinions.
First the class listened to the story The Highway Rat and then we did a character study on 2 different characters from the story. I wrote about the duck.
Next we had to figure out what the fact and opinions were in a story I figure a fact out: The Duck told the highway rat their were food in the mountain.
Lastly we had to find 5 adjective on each box by using the thesaurus. These adjectives described the character traits.
A fact is a thing that is known to be true. A opinions is a judgement formed about something.
I think I need to work on my adjective because I did not know which are adjective and which are verbs.
Basic Facts Boxes 2021
I complete can-do task called Basic Facts Boxes
I got four minutes thirty four seconds. I got 100/100.
I think I need to be in a harder level because I complete it in four minutes thirty four second and 100 percent.
Multiplication
Multiplication is a fast way of adding the same number many times.
First I took a big group of counters of an unknown amount.
Next I I split the big group into small groups of 5.
Then I counted how many groups were there.
Lastly I made a rectangle with the counters and used multiplication to find out the unknown amount.
I enjoyed using multiplication because it is faster to add the same number many times.
