Spreadsheets - Analysis of Completed Tasks for Monday 28 June

Yesterday was a really weird day. First of all, our teacher, Ms Corbett, was sick and she couldn't come to school. Second of all, our reliever didn't come. Third of all, our class got split into different room numbers for the WHOLE day. What a coincidence! Ms Corbett emailed us the tasks for the day. 
Here is a graph of the tasks our class finished.

From the graph I can see that there are 22  students in our class. I got this by adding the number of students on the red box, the orange box, the green box, the cyan box and the purple box together.

That means:
the red box has 1 student who completed 0 tasks / none of them
+ the orange box = 6 students 
+ the green box = 7 students
+ the cyan box = 6 students  
+ the purple box = 2 students
= In total there are 22 students

From this graph I can see that:
- 1 student finished 0 tasks / none of the tasks.
- 6 students finished 1 task.
-7 students finished 2 tasks.
-6 students finished 3 tasks.
-2 students finished 4 tasks / all of the tasks.

Ms Corbett feels very disappointed because 1 student didn't do any tasks, most people only did 1, 2 and 3 tasks. I think I can do better by:
-focusing on my work more.
-finishing work before games.

Animations Using Google Slides - Complex

This week we made another animation. Last time we made an easy practice one, so we made a harder and more complex one. This is my one, a stickman jumping on a trampoline into space and falling back down. 

I like doing these activities and I think they're really fun to make!

Vowel Sounds In Te Reo

 

Today we practiced dipthongs and vowel sounds in Te Reo. I recorded my pronunciations on some words. This is one of them; Te Whanau Puwaitanga

I like learning Te Reo Maori and I would like to improve on my dipthongs and pronunciation.

Animations Using Google Slides

Today we did Digital Animations. We practised making a person walk across the road/picture. Here is my video of my stick-man walking across the road.


We used Google Slides and Screencastify to make these animations. I learnt how to make an animation character with Google drawings, I used the tools to make my stick-man look good. I like doing these animations!

Fractions - Immersion Day 2

Today we did combinations of fractions that were bigger than a half but smaller than a whole. 

I made:

2/3

3/4

4/5

6/8 = 3/4.




Area and Perimeter Practice

In Week 4 we had to make a shape that used 24 blocks and had to have the same area and perimetre. I made an irregular shape that had a perimetre of 24 blocks and an area of 24 blocks squared. I put fencing around it and made it black and white so that it can be more clear when you count it. I liked these tasks when you try and figure out how to make the area and perimetre the same.

Dipthongs and Pronunciations

Yesterday we practiced dipthongs and Māori word pronunciations. We practiced the words: Ngākau, Hineraukatauri, Auahatanga and Te Papaiouru. 
A dipthong is two vowels together;
ae, ai, ao, au, ou, io, ie, etc...
I recorded my voice and this is how I pronounce it.
 I had time to record my Māori word pronunciations on - Speakpipe Voice Recorder.
