Reading/ Six photos

LI: To infer information using clues in the image and our prior knowledge to explain what might be happening

The article we read helped us make inferences about NZ history through images that were taken a long time ago . After reading the text worked collaboratively and used our inferring skills to think about what was happening in the photo and behind the scenes .

This image from the article, Six photos was taken on a dairy farm and shows one of the farmers milking a cow. There is a lady ( maybe his wife ) milking the other cow. The person on the wagon is waiting to take the milk into town so it can be sold to the dairy . At the dairy the milk would be turned into butter , cheese and maybe yogurt . We think this photon was taken in the 1800's because of the clothing they are wearing , the transport they are using and the farm equipment .

After filling our Measuring cup with yogurt  Afa and Diana was cutting the fruit on the sides then cutting them in half  so we could start  on laying our yogurt onto our fruits .

Cityscape of Paris

LI: To write a description of my Cityscape using prepositions 

On  the left  side  of my cityscape of Paris you will see the  Eiffel Tower standing tall in a dark colour. I blended cool colours together with chalk pastels to make the sky look like sunset in purple and green.  On the top of the Eiffel  tower you'll see a light purple sky background, on the bottom  of my cityscape  I have chosen to make the  reflection light green. The Eiffel tower took two years to be built again, two months and 5 days was remarkably a short amount of time. It took 7,000 metric tons of puddling iron. Not many people know there are 1665 steps in total in the Eiffel Tower. It would take about  30 to 45 minutes to climb the stairs to the second floor. Did you know the Eiffel Tower was built by a strong hard working man called Alexandre Gustave and the reason he built the Eiffel Tower was because it was a world’s fair. Alexandre Gustave opened the Eiffel  tower to the public in 1889. While I was blending my cool colours in, I noticed I was pressing too hard with the purple and I was accidentally scraping the chalk so I added more colour to even out the areas with a piece of cotton wool . I used white chalk pastels to lighten the tone into a dark background. Did you know on top of the Eiffel  on the third floor you'll see all the buildings and a nice view but it will cost 25,90 for an adult and kids to 12-24 is 13,00 , children to 4-11 is 6,50 and  kids under four is free by using the lift.

Using exponets

   LI: To learn how to use Exponents

 

This week we were learning about exponents . Exponents are useful because 33  is easier to write 3 x 3 x 3 exponents tell us how many times we need to multiply a number .

Eg: 22 is the same as 2 x 2 ,

22 = 4 and 2 x 2 =14 .

 

DLO shows how we use our knowledge of exponents to collaboratively share our thinking to find the answer.
