Creating T-shirts

Matariki. Matariki is coming up, And it is time we started learning about it. Matariki is the Maori New Year. We had video's and stories that we needed to read or listen to. Then we needed to complete 4 task cards. One of my task cards was to do with making a T-shirt for the main character Rangi. Here is the shirt I made.

Math With Mr Tafea

Yesterday, We had a reliever in our class. One of the things we learnt about was fractions, and simplifying them. Firstly he said the simplest fraction could be 1/2. So he wrote up 1/2 + 1/3 = ....
We had to figure it out. I realised if you times the denominators , which would be 2 x 3 = 6, you have a new denominator. /6. Then I thought , and how many sixths make up 1/2 . That would be 3/6. Then I thought again, How much is 1/3 in sixths , that is 2/6 . So then I added 2/6 + 3/6 = 5/6. And that is how I worked out my answer.

Being on Time :)

Last week on Friday, during assembly, Mr Herlihy announced the being on time award, for the week as well as the Attendance Award. Luckily last week we got to take on the Being On Time award. We were happy because it wasn't expected.
