Maths

  LI: To define the terms and understand the properties of 2D shapes.     Our challenge today was to find the definitions of a 2D shape then draw the shape. I chose to use the shapes tool because it gave us more of a challenge rather than just drawing it. I found this really interesting and fun because I got to learn new words relating to Geometry, and 2D shapes while being able to collaborate with my friends.

Geometry L-D

This poem related to lock-down talking about the pros and cons of lock-down. We were able to do talk about what we missed and what we didn't miss during lock-down, this helped us express our feelings and emotions about lock-down through the poem. It was fun and interesting learning a new poem, as we were able to add different language features and do this with our friends.

LI: Find the most efficient strategy for math questions  As a group we worked on papers to write our thoughts more clearly. Our strategy was to add the first 3 numbers (657, 493, 1183) and get an answer of 2333, we then subtracted that number from 6000 to get our final answer of 3667. We then created a DLO of our understanding.

L.I to write a list poem   For lock-down writing this week we wrote a list poem. A list poem is where you list a bunch of different things about your topic. The poem uses repetition in the sentences in between the first and last sentences. It also does not have to rhyme so you can write anything related to your topic. A List poem is a fun way to write poems and I really enjoyed doing this activity because of that.
