Maths

LI: to learn the time tables.
Multiplication is a faster way of counting the same number. Here is an example 9+9+9+9+9+9+9 is counting 9 seven times, so 7x9 =63.

These two slides show the 9 and 7 time tables.

Reading

LI: to do inferring.
For reading we learned about inferring.

We did  two activities for reading. The first activity was fact and opinion. We wrote facts for each character in the story and wrote down the opinions. For example the fox was afraid when he saw the gruffalo.

 Lastly the activity we did is character trait. A character trait is where we had to describe a character in the 
 book.

Writing/Setting Description

LI: To write a setting description.
Setting descriptions describe what a place in a story looks like, sounds like, feels like, and smells like. The following descriptions come from the story the gruffalo.

To describe what a setting looks like, use adjectives like sticks,paths, sand and grass.

To describe what something sounds like, use adjectives such as chirping, rustiling or wind.

To describe what something feels like, use adjectives like smooth,sharp and rough.

To describe what something smells like use adjectives such as flowers and trees.

The setting description is putting all of the adjectives used for describing the sounds, smells etc into sentences.

Inquiry/ Risk Assessment quiz

LI: to assess the likelihood

LI: to assess consequences

This week we learned about assessing risk.

We had to assess risk from then. There are five risk definitions. They are low, likely, possible,
elevated and extreme

The first task was that we had to pick a number out to 1 to 5.
There were fifteen questions and my group and I did a discussion of what number we should pick to see if it was correct,
almost or incorrect my group and I did a vote. 

After voting each question we got two correct answers, two incorrect answers, and the rest

was almost. Then we corrected our answer and did the next task. The next task was we had

to write our own situation from 1 to 5. After that we mixed up the answer and deleted those numbers.

This task was hard but we worked together and finished the task.

The second activity is octopus. The two people that are in it had to say something and the person had to run to the end, and if they got tagged they had to be an octopus. 

Next we had to list down names of hazards for each category (School, home,community, sports).
