Really Cool Reading Activities

  

Kia Ora Bloggers! How was your first week of term 4?

In the last week of school last term we started doing these fun tasks on different topics. How it worked is on the Korimako Hub Site under Mrs. Atkinson Reading, there was a slide with 4 different pictures, if you clicked on each one they would all take you to a different Google Drawing, On the Drawing, there were different questions about the topic. I have done 3 so far and am about to do the 4th one. My favourite one so far was Anne Frank because it was cool finding out about her story and what she had to go through at a young age. I have worked hard on this and I like how it has turned out. I have put information and pictures with each topic. How was your first week back at school? Do you know anything else about these topics that I haven't put in? Did you find out something new from reading this?

Fabulous Facts about Stonehenge

 

                             

                                      Kia Ora Bloggers! What is your favorite place you have been to? 

This week in Reading we were given the task to research about Stonehenge. Our tasks were, Read the book on Wonderopollis then watch the video on the slide. One of our other tasks was to research some facts about Stonehenge. This is my slide with all the facts on it. I researched about, when it was made, who made it and how long it took. It took me a while to get all of the facts but I am happy with how many I got.  Now I am working on making the facts into a book on book creator but that might take a while.  Have you ever been to Stonehenge? Do you know where Stonehenge is? Please leave me some feedback by leaving me a Positive, Helpful, Thoughtful comment. Bye!

Kia Ora Bloggers! What are you doing in Writing this week?

These past few weeks for writing we are doing Persuasive writing, we had to do different stages and this is how they went. We had to pick a topic that we are interested in discussing. After that, we had to start planning out our reasons to defend our topics on a piece of paper. Once we had come up with all our reasons we were allowed to start writing it down on a Google Doc. This is my writing above. I worked hard on this and I am happy with how it turned out. Please leave me some feedback by leaving a    Positive, Thoughtful, Helpful comment. Bye

Fabulous Fibonacci Sequence

                                              Kia Ora Bloggers! What have you been up to this week?

This week in Korimako it is Maths Week! This week has been filled with different things like origami, tesselations, and other fun things. This is one of the activities and it is called the Fibonacci Sequence. The Fibonacci Sequence is a pattern where it goes like this, 0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34 do you see the pattern? This was a very fun task to do and I am happy with the result. I first sketched the boxes and then I outlined it with a black marker. After I outlined the lines I added some colours, I chose to use Purple and Blue.  Can you see the pattern? Do you know why it is a spiral? Please leave me some feedback by leaving a Positive, Helpful, Thoughtful comment. Thanks for reading. Bye!
