Raz Kids

Today I did reading on a website called Raz Kids. It was a helpful website for me to read a lot of different books. I learnt that art is all around us but is made in different ways. Many types of artists make different art. I learnt this by reading a book from the reading room called art all around us. It first came up in the introduction when I read it. I really enjoy this book and hope all of yous start reading it when you have time.

Key words or Phrases

LI: To identify unknown words and phrases in a text

I learnt that a phrase is a word that can combine more than 3 words. For example-wine me up

I learnt this by Mr Wong teaching me how it looks like and giving me a good example of a key phrase. Key phrase is different from keywords.

Subject,Verb,Object

LI: To identify a subject of a sentence/ To identify a main verb of a sentence
I learnt that there is another part of a verb. Such a The subject,verb,and the object. A subject is the person, A verb is a action word like someone doing something, and the object means something.
I learnt this by reading a very helpful question called who did the action which is the subject. It really helped myself to work more faster by looking at the question a few times.

This week Mr Wong's maths group had to make a table to with 10 numbers on it. The questions on each column was What the number was, How many tens are there, How many groups of ten,How many hundreds are there, and How many groups of hundred is there.I learnt that there is more columns in the place value such as 1000, 10,00. I learnt this by Mr Wong teaching me this and more stuff. 

Ugly- Verbs

LI: To form a opinion about a text/To identify verbs. I learnt how to identify verbs by skim reading through the text and figuring out which word is a verb. I learnt this by using a google drawing and using a reading website to find the verbs.

Japan Sumo Wrestling

Learning Intention: To write a complete blog post using a fact about Japan

I learnt that back in the days Japan Sumo wrestlers were skinny. They were skinny back until the 1914 . The Sumo wrestlers were muscular in the early 20 century. As you know they are starting to get fatter in these days.

I found out these facts on a online website that had a lot of interesting information about Sumo wrestling in Japan. It had a photo of a few of skinny people and a fat people just like that person in the front of the first row.

Sumo is for Japan people who are heavyweight. Sumo game is played in a big circle. You have to stand inside it. There can only be two heavyweights versing each other. The two sumo have to try and get each other out of the circle.

Ancient Egyptian numbers

Ancient Egyptian numbers

Learning Intention:  to understand place value by using Ancient Egyptian numbers.

Challenge:

What number is this? 23 Why? Because I think the 2 upside down u's are the place value of ten and that the 3 lines represents the 1's.

23

Some Ancient Egyptian numbers

	1
	10

The twirly symbol represents 100's the upside down u's represents the 10's and the lines represent the 1's.

	144
	602
	379
	314
	636
	379
	379

What is the same about the last two numbers? The one thing that is the same with the two last two numbers is that they equal the same number.

What is different about the last two numbers? It's the same numbers but just not in order.

Challenge:

Change these numbers into Ancient Egyptian numbers. Insert a photo of your number written on a whiteboard.

7
42
220
608
795

Addition

Challenge:

Now try adding numbers. You cannot draw modern maths symbols like + and =.

7 + 5
36 + 15
274 + 418
593 + 109

Subtraction

Challenge:

Now try subtracting numbers. You cannot draw modern maths symbols like - and =.

12 - 3
23 - 17

What can you understand about Ancient Egyptian numbers compared to modern numbers?

Modern numbers use english numbers such as 2 12 23 and 4 but the ancient Egyptian numbers use symbols to do their numbers just like this. They have 3 symbols representing the place value columns. The straight line symbol is a 1 the upside down u is a 10 and the twirly symbol is the 100's.

LI: To understand place value by using Ancient Egyptian numbers. 

This week Mr Wong's maths group has been learning about Ancient Egyptian numbers. We had to use whiteboards to write the numbers. I have learnt one thing for writing Ancient Egyptian numbers is to make sure you dont use equals, addition, subtraction,and any other symbols on our Chromebooks.
I learnt this by figuring out how we write our numbers compared to the ancient numbers.
I first figured out what each ancient number meant on my work. The upside down u represents the 10's, the straight lines represents the 1's, and lucky last the twirly symbol represents the 100's of the place values.
