Fraction thinkboard

This term we have been learinng about fractions.  For this activity we had to choose a fraction, write the decimal and show the fraction in different ways.

This was alright but since I chose an improper fraction,23/5,  then I didn't know what to do at the start. Once I had it explained again I understood it and now I know what to do.

The decimal was easy because we have a decimal chart which has one fifth on it so I just had to double it a few times. On the number line I just made a table then put the lines were they are on the table. The rest were easy as well especially equivalent because that is just another fraction which means 23/5. 

Nessie Vocabulary Task

This term we have been doing research on unknown creatures, at the moment we are doing Nessie. We had to pick a word out of the text and research what it has to do with Nessie, I did Exists. I thought this activity was esay because all we had to do was get a word out of the text and tell what it had to do with Nessie. 

Next time I think that I should add more information about Nessie.

Billy goats Setting Map

For this activity we had to draw the setting of The Three Billy Goats Gruff.  First we listened to the story and identified the different settings.  Then we drew our map andnumbered each place on the map from the first place in the story through to the last setting. We had to tell the places that the numbers are by writing a key to go with our map. 

I thought this activity was alright because you got to design the setting map.  Next time I would include more detail in my map so people can imagine they are in the story.

What Makes a Fairy Tale a Fairy Tale?

W.A.L.T : Locate fairy tales in a libary useing the Dewey Decimal System. 
I thought this activity was fun but challenging to find where the fairy tales were in the library. We thought that they were in the fiction area but after a while we found out that they were in the non fiction area. When we finally found the fairy tales we got started on what makes a fairytale a fairytale.
Next time I think that when we are searching in the libary I should use equipment which is helpful around us.

This term we are exploring unsolved mysteries, Nessie is one of them so here is mine. In this activity you had to highlight the keywords from the text that describe Nessie then draw nessie.

My profile for PrEP

This year for PREP we had to apply for a job and I chose to be a banker. 

When you are a banker you have to be good at maths. Are you good at Maths?
Also you need to be let to be a banker. I hope Mrs O' Sullivan lets me be a banker. 
If you are not allowed to be a banker or the job you wanted to be you have to work in class. 

I thought this activity was alright but you had to think carefully of what you were going to put on so you convinced the Principal to employ you.  We also had to write an accompanying letter.

My Treasure

W.A.L.T Use conjuntions to join our ideas together and include descriptive detail.  
This task was to think of someting precious to you and write about it.  I thought this activity was fun but hard to choose which thing to write about.
I think I went all right with the W.A.L.T but I could use more conjunctions next time, This is my piece below.
The conjunctions are the FANBOYS which are, for, and, nor, but, or, yet and so. How many FANBOYS do I have in my writing? Comment below.
