Maths Strategy - Screencastify

San Kyaw, Harlem and I have created this screencastify to explain the strategy we used to find the answer to this maths question. Using our times tables was easier than using repeated addition. We were able to find the answer quickly without loosing count. I think we all collaborated really well.

Teamwork at PBS

This term LS2 has been practicing and preparing for Cross Country. We have been learning how to paste ourselves. Before and after running we always have to stretch. It is important to stretch because it will help loosen your muscles. We have been running five laps or more around our school fields which I think is good. We have been practicing two times a week. On Wednesday which was the School Cross Country. Everybody was excited and bit neverous. The Cross Country went in year groups so first was the new entrance kids and went up to the year seven and eight. The new entrance kids were running 1 lap. They were amazing. They didn't give up even though it was muddy. Girls were been told to go first then boys. They year seven and eight did five laps. Five laps was lots so everybody remembered to paste themselves and to breathe in and out while running. Before running everybody were stretching. I am a year seven boy which meant I had to do five laps. When I crossed the finish line I was told I came 3. I was very proud of myself and will do better next time.

Worm farms

Worm Farms

I am going to explanation on why worm farms are important, What it does to the environment, Food waste, How to build one, how it affects schools, and how efficient it would be. And what you can do with the worm farms

Environment

Worm farms look’s like a little cage and make the environment look better, but when you don’t use it the environment looks dirty. So that’s why you need to use worm farms because the world would not look good if it is not clean. And for inquiry we are learning about reduce reuse and recycle. We are using recycle for writing for worm farms. The only food the worms could eat to turn into compost is organic food.

Food Waste

We should recycle instead of throwing our rubbish in the bin so the world it not just made out of rubbish because all the rubbish is thrown into landfills.

Why my blog is unique

As strange as it might seem a blog is a website where people across the world share their learning and thoughts. Did you know that every blog looks different? Everyone’s blog is unique at our school because you can earn badges that show your achievement.

My blog is unique because my blog tells you what I have been learning at school. So far I have been blogging for 3 Years! My blog keeps growing and I now have 283 blog posts. Did you know that my blog has been viewed 9,659 times from the many places around the world (my global audience )?  If you don't  have a blog then it will be impossible for you to have such a large audience because the only person you can share your work with is your teacher.

My blog is also special because I get feedback and feed forward about my work. That means people are sharing their opinions and telling me what they liked and what I could change in a positive way. You can’t do that if you don't have a blog because no one can share their opinions, only your teacher and classmates.

Did you know that you can go back to see what you have been doing the last couple of years and see what work you have done? You can compare your work to see how it has changed over time. You can’t do that if your work is in a book because you might not still have your old books.

My blog is individual because it is a record of my learning since I was in year 4.The best part is that you can throw your books away but you can’t throw your blog away.

This week Mrs Anderson’s reading group has been writing an explanation. I learnt how to properly write a explanation and how it is ordered. The things I already knew about an explanation, is that it is a type of writing and that it is needs to be in past tense order. I still need  to work on making sure that my writing makes  sense in the future and that I have used the correct spelling.

One of our challenge was to build a lake out of rocks and see if we could fit 12 liters of water inside our lake. Everyone had fun.
