Today I learnt about shapes.

I have been learning about fractions. Today we learnt how to draw fraction shapes in the drawing program. Sometimes it was hard getting all the fractions the same size.

Playing Cards

Playing Cards 12 June 2013

Introduction:

At Glen Innes School, the children in the senior classes are playing cards. They play them during the morning tea and lunch breaks. The children have devised unique rules to play the cards. The cards end up in the gutter, and they love it!

The challenge:

They meet up and tell them if they want to play.

They see how much they want to challenge.

They pick a gutter that they call a hole.

Then they start the game.

The game ( rules ):

The first person who says last then they go last.

No dragging.

Straight aims.

No double touch.

tap, straight aims

double hit.

No cheating.

No backs and sides, means you have to not go back or side

The winner:  

You become the winner when you get all the cards in the hole.

When you win you get to keep the cards that you just won.

Then you can go and vs someone else and see if you can win.

You sometimes get good luck and bad luck.

Pareata learns through cartoons.

I am learning direct speech through cartoons. We had fun doing these cartoons. Next time I hope we can do a story in cartoons.

Pareata learns his subjects

This is a snapshot of my learning about writing, maths, music, spelling.

I found my work easy to do.
It was fun because you get to play on some of the images.
Next I want to learn about drama and music.
