✃ Shapes and Angles

This week we have been learning about how to measure interior angle sums, interior angles and exterior angles of any shape. This was quite new, though it was ok since we knew what the shapes were.

To measure the interior angle sum, you take the number of sides of a shape minus 2, then times that by 180. Next, we find the interior angle. Take the interior angle sum divided by the number of sides. Finally the exterior angle. The equation to find this is 180 - interior angle.

In simpler words,

{ NUMBER OF SIDES - 2 } x 180 = INTERIOR ANGLE SUM

{ INTERIOR ANGLE SUM } ÷ { NUMBER OF SIDES} = INTERIOR ANGLE

180 - { INTERIOR ANGLE } = EXTERIOR ANGLE

Cellphones at School

Billie, Kyra and I wrote our argument about weither cellphones should be allowed at school or not.  We did the introduction together, then split of to write our own paragraphs. I did the first paragraph about eye health, Kyra did the second about getting distracted, and Billie did the third about cyber bullying. After we read over it and edited some of the spelling, we wrote the conclusion. Here is what we have now!

Angles

This week, we have been learning about measuring and identifying the different angles. It was a lot of fun using the protractor. Here is my learning DLO!

Term 1 & 2

These two terms have been a lot of fun. We had Hanmer Springs camp which was a lot of fun, and I'm really proud of myself for climbing to the top of both trees. I competeted in the Kidslit competition, and although my team didn't win or get a place, the experience was good enough. 

I'm proud of myself for entering in the Friends of the Art gallery exhibit without procastinating. I also have been improving my basic facts, even just by a 2 or 3 second difference. 

Next term I would like to try and finish my work faster, and not let all the out of class things effect my that much. Maybe even do some at home.

Thank you Miss Hines for teaching us these 2 terms, and we will miss you a lot! Wishing you the best!

Week 9 Workbook

Last week we did more work around basic addition and subtraction word problems. Here is my workbook!

Add Sub Mult Div

Here is my workbook from week 8. It's based around addition, subtraction, multipulcation and division.This was pretty easy to do, but I got a bit confused on a few questions.

Novel Study

For the past few weeks, we have been doing personal novel studies. I did mine on the book 1984. I made my own book cover for it, with a telescreen with the numbers 1984 in the screen part. I also did the character description activity. I also made a word find with words related to the book.
