The Summarising Strategy - Week 4

Keywords help us make big story's short and make boring texts into awesome texts.

You can choose a keyword from a book and you can put it in your writing, but you can't copy all of the story because it is called plagiarism.

Here is an example:

Keywords - Extinct and fossils 

Sentence - Most animals are now EXTINCT because they were killed by people that lived 100 years ago or they were eaten by other birds.

Sentence - Scientists search for FOSSILS to see what sort of bird it is and if it is extinct or not.

And there is an example of keywords!

Thanks for reading! :)


Here is photo of some fossils!

Maths sticks - Week 3

We are learning about measurement.  We need to make our name out of 50 maths sticks.  We needed to make each one of our letters 20 centimetres tall or our name one metre long.  I did the one that you need to make each letter 20 centimetres tall.  We need to have a starting point and a finishing point which means you need to have your name starting at cm which stands for 0 and the finishing point will be at the end of your ruler.  A little ruler would be about 30 centimeters long.  With our name we had to count up how many of each colour maths sticks and then we had to work out what was the total value of your name.  But we didn't do our name, the teacher gave us a sheet for us to work on.  So say there were 3 blue, 4 red and 5 yellow we had to work out what it was.  And just say the yellow are $10, the blue $5 and the red $2 and we had to work it out so here is an example, so there were 5 yellow and they were worth $10 and 10+10+10+10+10=50, so now you have 50 and now the blue are worth $5 and there were 3 blues so lets count 5,10,15=15, now we have 15, now the red. The reds are worth $2 and there are 4 of them.  Lets count again 2,4,6,8,10, now we have 10 so 10+50+15=75 so the total value was $75.

Pacman - Week 3


This game is called pacman. The Orange circle is you and you need to collect all the orange spots to complete the level. But you need to look out for all the other things that walk around the maze if you bump into one you lose a life. You have 3 lives and if you lose all your lives you start again. And at the ends of each sides you can go through them and then you end up on the other side of the maze. You can collect big things that make all the other things go blue and then you can eat them and they will disappear, but they spawn in the middle of the maze.
