Name and Identify Fractions

Today I was learning how to name and identify fractions I knew a lot about it but I wanted to recap on it. So what I had to do was I would get a square and some of it was shaded and what you had to do was find out how much there were and I got 100 out of 100. It even said” I am bowled with how smart you are!” and that made my day.

Tamaki River Family Tree

Walt:Draw a Family tree

We drew a tree of the tamaki river because the Omaru Creek is a branch of the Tamaki River.We found out that the Tamaki River started in Middlemore and ends in Waitemata Harbour.We are studying on the Omaru Creek so know we know more about the creek and where it connects too.

Cabbage trees and Bulrushs

On Thursday we did some art.We did this because around the Omaru Creek there was Cabbage trees and Bulrush plants.This was based on the Omaru Creek because that is our topic study.Most of the class did the Cabbage tree because it is easy but it wasn't. We tried to do a sunset but it was purple.This was fun but I  did have alot of Mistakes.
