Math angles

W.A.L.T create a blog post explaining what I did this week

For maths this term we are learning about angles. This week we have done multiple maths sheet equations, so I thought I'd share with you what I have done. Last year I learnt a bit about angles which made figuring out angles a lot more better .Here is my work sheet:

Reflection:

Doing this maths sheet was easy. I just had to basically do addition, and at the top of the work sheet, it said what the angle was called.

What did I enjoy?

I enjoyed working out what the answer is. It was simple to work out so I could do this maths sheet pretty fast.

What did I find interesting?

What I found interesting was finding out that a triangle could be an angles, specifically a 180 degree angle was a triangle.

Do you know how to measure angles or do you need to use a protractor?

Writing task

W.A.L.T create a blog post explaining our writing task for today.

For writing today, we had to write a descriptive writing. First we had to plan the object we were doing, by writing the 5 senses (Tastes, smells, looks, sounds, feels) then write a descriptive writing for out object. I decided to do a mouse, cause I thought it would be fun to fill out the plan. Here is my plan:

What did I do well?

I did well on writing the senses, I came up with words to write pretty quickly.

What could I improve on?

I think I could've done more descriptive and better adjective words.

How will I use this in my writing?

I will use by adding these senses into my writing to make it a 'descriptive writing. Example: "A mouse is feels soft and smooth"

Reflection on what I enjoyed:

I enjoyed thinking of words to write down, I could write whatever I wanted and be creative. My favourite senses to write about was 'looks'. I could I imagine a cute mouse and then write everything what it looked like. I am very excited to write my descriptive writing!

What animal would've you written?

Matariki Stars

W.A.L.T create a blog post explaining art we did last week.

For Art last week, we had to create a Matariki star to represent the Matariki stars (Seven sisters). 

Here is my Matariki star:

Here's how we created it:

1. Using A3 paper, trace 2 small stars, and two big stars.

2. Draw some Moari patterns on the stars.

3. Colour the stars using felts, pastels, or pencils.

4. Glue your 4 stars together and then glue the whole star onto a black paper.

4. With the black paper, trace around the star using a pencil, creating a black border around it.

5. Cut around the star with the black paper.

Reflection on what I enjoyed.

I enjoyed drawing and designing the Moari patterns, then colouring in the design. I enjoyed this because it was oddly satisfying and I could be creative.

My favourite part was colouring in, though it took the longest, it was still really fun.

I think I could definitely improve on the border, it was uneven and wasn't cut that well.

Have you ever done Matariki art?
