Tenses

What are Tenses?

Tenses are a form of a verb that tells three things about a action. There are 12 different types of tenses

The past means something that has already happen. Present means it is happened right now. Future means something that will happen.

Simple is one specific thing. Continuous is still going on. Perfect is a completed thing.

The type of tenses are past simple, present simple, future simple, past continuous, present continuous, past perfect, present perfect future perfect, past perfect continuous, present perfect continuous and future perfect continuous.

Verb tenses can help kids learn when the action took place and if an action took place in the past, present and future.

Questioning

I learnt about questioning. Questioning is asking for more information. 

For the question, "What are the rules for the test?" I found it right there in the text. I looked on page one for the answer.

I found the think and search question ("What does Bran think of Mara?") on page 4. This is a think and search question because I had to search for the answer.

I found the author and me question: "How does Bran feel when Mara is considering weather to help him?" on page 4 as well. I used my prior knowledge for this question because the answer is not in the book.

For the on my own for the question: "What genre is this story?" I came up with my own answer because it was not in the text.

I really enjoyed reading this book.

Maths

Fraction are equal parts cut from a whole object. There proper, improper, and mixed number fractions. 

The denominator is bigger and the numerator is smaller. Mixed number fractions are a whole and fraction. For example 1 and 2/3. Improper fractions are fractions that are not suitable and have the denominator less than the numerator.

You can convert each fraction into a decimal representation by dividing the numerator by the denominator. For example I have 7/10, 7 ÷ 10 =0.7 this means the decimal representation.

Volume And Capacity

Volume is how much space inside a object. Capacity means how much liquid an object can hold. The standard forms of measuring is Millimetres (mm) and Liters (LT).

Estimation is trying to guess Something. Estimation is using your prior knowledge to guess what the number was.

To convert ml to L you can divide by 1000. To convert L to ml multiply by 1000.

Kiwisport

A set is a technique in volleyball.

To set a ball first put one leg in the front and the other one behind so you can get ready to bend your knees.

 Then bend the knees so you can get ready to put your knees straight. Then hit the ball with your hands.

Finally you can hit the ball.

Aboriginal Art

The past 2 weeks we started our aboriginal art. 

We used paint, chalk, and earbuds to create our art. We watched a video called how a kangaroo got it's pouch. We could chose anyway how to paint, we could do dot painting or lines.

We had to paint a story about the Kangaroo and the wombat. The story was mostly about the Kangaroo and the wombat. I put lots of different types of symbols.

There was the sun, the star, and the hand. We had to do our real art on black paper and do our practice one on white paper. 

On the white paper we did symbols but on the black paper we started our aboriginal art. I 

did the fish.

My story was about the Wombat and the kangaroo going to the small Kangaroo. The small Kangaroo was in the tree.

I enjoined doing aboriginal art.

Light And Sound

In our inquiry we learnt about light and sound.

Sound is the vibrations that can be heard form someone. Light is power that makes things visible.

The first activity we did was vocabulary. We connected the meaning to the right word.

Our second activity was to find draw,animate and act. We had to find photos of the word like vibrate. Vibrate means shaking your body. For act we made videos. For find we did our four words and added the photos. For draw we drew Vibration, sound wave, reflect and echo.

I enjoyed this activity because I learnt new facts.
