LI : Summarise main events.
LI : Summarise the beginning, middle, and end of the story.
This week for reading Miss Tele’a was talking about Mrs Spider’s Beautiful Web. We were learning to do summarising which means saying something in a shorter way. We used a paper to write down what happened in the beginning, middle and end of the book. I told my group what to write for the beginning. Then we put it on our slides. I did well at choosing my spider to put on the slide. Here is our work :
This term we had to do a blog for Matariki and to explain 4 stars. The first one was Tupuānuku. Tupuānuku is the star that represents food grown in the ground and the second one is Tupuārangi.
Tupuārangi is associated with food that comes from the sky and is linked to birds. Traditionally kererū were harvested around this time. It is also connected to the harvesting of elevated foods such as berries and fruits.
Look upon this star to find inspiration for your five plus a day. Winter berries and fruits can be harvested around this time. Such as kiwifruit, fejoia, lemons, limes, oranges, mandarins, and passionfruit. Try collecting this fresh kai and sharing with your community, whānau and friends and the third one is Waitī .
The fifth star is Waitī which is connected to fresh water and living creatures in the rivers, streams, and lakes.
You can look upon this star is recognition and appreciation of our fresh waters in Aotearoa. It is a great time to set intentions to help preserve our freshwater ways, such as not wasting water or joining community stream cleaning events and the last one is Waitā
The sixth star is Waitā (twin of Waitī) which is associated with the ocean and represents food gathered from the sea. This star is also significant for its influences over tides and floodwaters.
You can look upon this star to set intentions of protecting our salt waters and living creatures within. This can involve practicing environmentally sustainable practices such as conserving water, reducing waste and fishing responsibly.
This week for maths we practiced adding using an algorithm. The algorithm we used was adding with renaming. This is my DLO of how to use the algorithm to answer questions.
We also practiced our number knowledge, and did worksheets practicing our column addition.
Today in our cybersmart we learnt how to make a rocket in Google Drawings. We used shapes like triangles, rectangles, 32 point stars and circles. To colour our planets we made our own gradients. My planet has a red and turquoise gradient. In my rocket ship is me, Nio & Miss Tele’a.
