designing for our classroom next year

hi my friend and i ( Ava and Amayah) have made a video using screen casetify and we are talking about how we want to make a positive for our learning environment for all the kids next year so they can have there own independent spaces, collaborative spaces, presentation, space, quiet space, art space and most coolest and important the building space that we hope to extend. we hope all the people that watch this enjoy it and understand it. please give us and email or give us comment if you have some feedback or have some ideas.

My knowledge goal

Today I have practiced my knowledge goal ( understanding decimals) because it was my priororitiy. This photo is showing you how I have worked it out. So example:  it was 44.8 x 10 = 448 because it's in tens so you just look at it and you know the answer even if it was a big one like 444.5 x 10 = 4445 it's the same working out. 

My new carnival art

Blink

My math through the years haven't been too good but I have been trying my hardest to improve. I maybe still be on my threes and four times tables but that doesn't mean I can't improve. And that's what I have been trying to do this year and last year. I still haven't gotten my math up to standard this year but my teachers have been great. They have teached me so many Strategy's different ways to work out problems, and I don't know how many, that's how much there is they have teached me. It's just so fun and easy to work out these problems. But then of course there is always a challenge somewhere is the workshop with either of the teachers Mrs Mc A or Mr A. which is good because i learn new things and then that means my nearons are connecting because I've learnt something new. 

So this year is probably  my best year in math and i feel very releved but I've still go so much to learn yet and I'm still a bit behind but I'll catch up.

My carnival art

This is my carnival art it's very unquie to me because I made it and I made it because I would like to be a fashion designer one day. And I have always wanted to go to a fashion show like I had the chance but my nana didn't want to go.

Quick write

My quick write

I have written a quick write on docs. A quick write is where you have a topic and it only takes you about half an hour to finish it so it’s kind of a challenge or it could take a few days. Anyways since it’s called a quick write you type fast and you do everything fast. It’s fun.

I have written a quick write. There were three topics and I choose the one that said do you remember your first best friend and what did you do together. I did my first best friend from school she is called she is a great friend we may have some fights sometimes but we get over it pretty quickly.  And + me and Ava have a fight and then i have to go and sorry it’s like i can’t be without her for a second. Anyway make a comment on my blog if you have done quick write it would be cool. Hope you know what a quick write is.

Multiply a 2 Didgt Number By Ten

I've just got a new goal about a week ago and its really easy so thats why I'm going to change it heres an example: so say if you were told by your teacher that you had to work out this 5x10=50 50x10=500 with the 5x10 its 50 and you use that for the answer for 50x10 its 500 you have add another 0.

How My Writing Has Changed

My writing has changed from a few months ago I have learned so much through the terms and I remember almost everything.

Mr A has taught me how to show not tell in my writing.It’s made my writing sound more effective and interesting.

At the start of the year I didn’t know how to use show not tell and I just couldn’t think what to write about and now I just makeup a descriptive piece of writing and it gets me interested in my writing. It also gets me stuck into my writing let’s just say it get’s my brain working.

You can look on my blog I’ve got an explanation of what it is and how you do it.

Show Not Tell

Through the past weeks I have been going to workshops on show not tell. Which means say if you have got to write about the forest you wouldn’t say I heard people walking behind me. That’s not show not tell because you’re telling the reader that someone was walking behind you. So you have  actually got to show the reader not tell the reader so we will turn that little sentence into I heard footsteps creeping up to me. I just showed you what happened not told you what happened. I think it’s better when you write a story and you use show not tell because probably the reader gets more interested. Because when you tell someone something it takes so long and the person that has to listen to it they would probably almost fall asleep and to be fair I would feel sorry them. So next time when you guys write a story try use show not tell it will 1 make you’re writing better and sound better and 2 the reader that obviously reads it will get hooked into the story and same will you. Here's a screen shot of my writing with show not tell.

Understanding Tenths (Decimal Numbers)

Last week on friday we had our last workshop on understanding tenths  ( Decimal numbers) We worked on this workshop on thursday two and got problem  work.

I have really enjoyed the workshop because I have always wanted to learn about decimals and before that workshop  even happened I didn’t  know what decimal was and now I do.

Heres an example to show that I know. So 16/10  you would take the 10 away and then you are left with 16 so you put a dot in the middle which is could a point  and then it is 1.6 you just break it up but if it was 3/10 it has to be 0.3   because you take the 1 of the 10 and you are left with 0 and 3 so  put a dot in the middle and then the answer will be 0.3 as I showed before. when it’s a tenth you have to put a 0 infront of the number but when it’s a 2 digit number you take the whole tenth away and then you are left with your two digit number say 18 you go like this put the dot in the middle then the answer will be 1.8 so it’s still 18 but you just broke number up.

Making Connections

      Making Connections  

connections is when you have seen,heard or read about something  example surfing and you have done surfing your are making a connection it's when like someone has done something that you have done. Making connections helps you remember things that you knew but forgot.  

There's  these  neurons in your brain and every time you learn something your neurons will connect together it's hard when you first try something or do something but you will get better and  better example: it's like when you try build something and it brakes straight away you try it again and it might just work because when you practice and practice something  over and over again you will find that it is getting easier and easier to build what you want. Your neurons will connect together because you have learned something new.  

SlC

This is me and my mum and at the moment in the photo I am showing mum my art. I think I did pretty well at the SLC with mum because I was organised and and I knew what to say. She also liked the idea of the words in our art. The words were you're not alone and your shoes used to be mine. You're not alone is nice to look at when you are sad or when you fell down about yourself  you're not alone is really nice because you are not alone and there is always people around to help you. Your shoes used to be mine comes from put your feet in other peoples' shoes by showing empathy.

My Avatar

My avatar represents me because I like to be creative.I want be an artist when I am older and I like the colour blue and I have brown hair and like to were caps.

the kitchen

My favourite room of the house is the kitchen because there is lots of food in the  kitchen. I love to eat, I would eat until I got sick. I also like the kitchen because there is lots of room in it, and I love to bake because I get to eat the mixture every time . I like our kitchen because it is flash. I would change our pantry to my secret spot because it is little and it has a fridge to put my chocolate in. I think the kitchen is a good hiding spot. I like the kitchen because I can do the splits in it but mum tells me off. My favourite food in the fridge is chocolate.  I think that the pantry is a good talking spot and by the way I like to talk.
