First time going fishing

(My first time going fishing with my dad)

Hooray? I said as I arrived home, I was excited to go fishing.

First I went with my dad to buy bait from the shops, and as soon as we got home, we packed the fishing rods and all the fishing stuff then we drifted to Okahu wharf.

We got there, took everything out and ran to our fishing spot. I took the fishing rods and the bait to where my dad was standing then we started.

A couple of minutes later I felt something moving so I told my dad quickly and he shouted out to me to pull it up. I was overjoyed because it was the first fish I had ever caught.

I threw it into the chilly bin and left it there. After one hour we had a lot of fish so we walked to the van and went home. I told my mum that we had a lot of fun and she was jealous.

I told her she could come with us next time. Mum  cooked all the fish and it was yummy.  I mostly the crunchy skin.

Mouse Trap

MOUSE TRAP

Natalia   03/09/2015

Auntie is a big bulky girl and she loves killing bugs.  When dad sees a rat he screams out Aunt's name and she comes with her hammer and a skewer for some reason.

There were rats everywhere in our house but Auntie always used to kill them so there could be no more. Sarah my younger sister hates it when auntie kills things so auntie made a mousetrap to catch every single mouse in our house.

A few weeks later we noticed that there were no rats running around and that auntie was becoming to be a softie like my little sister Sarah.

When the rats were all gone we had a celebration party and the chocolate fountain went everywhere. We all felt so happy and sticky from the chocolate.

The End !

I have completed this game and I think it was challenging for me but this helps me to have a better understanding of equivalent fractions.  I have learned that a equivalent fraction can be found by multiplying or dividing both the numerator and denominator by the same number except 1.  I would recommend this game to year 5 - 6 learners.

Times Tables Quiz

I have just finished this game and I am really proud of myself. The reason why I got some wrong was because I was getting distracted by my friends. But I got through in the end and I am sure that next time I will do better.

WALT - write a word problem from an given number sentence then solve the problem.                                                                                                     

1. 341- 297=
Sally got paid and she got 341 dollars then she bought toys for 297 dollars. How much money  does she have left?
Working:
340 - 297=
300 - 200=100
40- 90= 50
7- 0 = 7
100- 50= 50
50 - 7= 43 dollars

2. 224 + 977=
Jeremy had 224 books and he bought 977 more how many books does Jeremy have now?
Working:
200 + 900=1100
20 + 70= 90
4 + 7 = 11
1100 + 90 + 11= 1201 Books

3. 28 ÷ 7=
Joseph had 28 lollies he wanted to share it between 7 people.  How many lollies would each person get?
Working:
28÷ 7=4 because 7 x 4= 28 each

4. 12 x 10
Jack had 12 lollies and Milly had 10 times more. How many lollies does Milly have?
working:
10 x 10= 100
11 x 10 = 110
that means-
12 x 10 = 120 lollies

5. ½ of 34=
Lakai had 34 cookies and she gave half to his older sister.   How many cookies did Lakai give her older sister?

WALT- write a story from a picture
Success Criteria -
- Use different types of sentences.
- Use adjectives, adverbs and expensive words.

Chris was at home when he saw the TV say that there is a great golf game in town .He thought about how he was a very great golfer in the late 90’s.

He set off and came at a stop at the golfer's game place and played for a while. He was winning most of the times but he lost about three games.  When he was on the last game he was one second away from getting his ball in but suddenly a big terrifying brown grumpy bear jumped out and made him hit his ball straight across the field.

They stared nervously for a while then  they ran for about 3 miles until they got to their cars but the bear was coming too fast and he had no chance of getting in. Chris got his golf club and whacked the brown bear several times until he was unconscious. Then he called up the animal control and they took care of everything. At the end of the day when the bear was gone they played on with their game and Chris won at the end .
