Some thing new i learnt

WOW! So many new things that i learnt this term! But one of the most recent things Ive learnt is subtraction working form.

This is what subtraction working form looks like

  Its so useful and its much easier then having to take things of numbers and constantly having to put your brain through lots of work. This new method Ive learnt is exactly like working form except subtracting. I already knew how to do subtraction working form but I learnt a different harder way with my dad whether this new way that Ms R Bolger taught me is very simple.

This is a method that i shall forever remember no matter what because its the best method I have learnt in my life! When I concentrate it helps me learn but find also find out new things I havent learnt. Repeating thing in my head millions of times helps me to remember and learn and also when i take down notes (In my case writing biography etc).  

THE WIND SINGER

Book groups have been really fun this term and I'm reading The wind singer with Aisling, Elizabeth Samantha and Catherine. We all had great ideas and really good conversations that we all understood. Everything went really well and everyone in my group contributed to everything we said. Although sometimes our conversations led into different book conversation and we were sometimes a bit off topic.

 Nothing else went wrong in our book group and we have enjoyed the book a lot and cant wait to see what happens at the end of it. I've gained better reading skills because I don't just skip the lines or skim through them but I actually take a good look at them and can understand the book a lot more when I read bit by bit a time. This book is an excellent book with cool and funny characters with an adventure sort of theme to it. So if your looking for a book to read I guarantee you would want to read the wind singer!

BOOK I ENJOYED AS A YOUNGSTER!

I've read many books in my past which were all brilliant but one book in particular stood out and made me wanna read more and more of it. This book was the 1st nanny Piggins in the series. I was 9 years old (not so long ago) when i read this book. It is called Nanny Piggins written by RA Sprat.

 What happens in this book is that a man called Mr green wants a nanny to look after his 3 children Derrick, Michal and Samantha who all hate their father. He ends up hiring Nanny Piggins (Who is a pig) because he only had to pay her 10c and hour!  All the chapters in this book are different and its mostly about Nanny Piggins and the 3 children. They get up to mischievous things and have the time of their lives with their nanny. I forgot to tell you that Nanny Piggins LOVES chocolate so much they eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner!

What I liked about this book is that its funny and their are really cool characters and names in this book. I also liked how they've set out the characters different personalities.  I read this book by myself and also a teacher once read it to us in class. It is an amazing story and i recommend it for all people who love comedy and pigs!

HOLIDAYS!

LEGO MOVIE!!

I did lots of things in the holidays but one of the coolest things I did was go and see the Lego movie which was AWESOME!! Its about an ordinary builder called Emmet and he has to save the world from a guy who wants to glue everyone into place because he like things to be in order and not all messed about.

 There is a thing called the prophecy that a wizard made up and Emmet is the guy who has to make  the prophecy come true. Everyone thinks Emmet is just ordinary but the isn't and puts his master building to the test and makes awesome stuff. In the end Emmet saves the world and convinces the evil guy not to glue everyone. It was an amazing movie and I like the song 'Everything is awesome' in it. If you haven't watched it I guarantee you'll want to see it.  

Awesome as Mission fair!!!!

WOW the mission fair was amazing and really fun!

I was with Catherine, Eva, Sarah and Grace.T.

Our stall had lots of activities .eg Guess that chocolate, Hair Braiding, Lolly machine  and Mini pompoms you could adopt.

Our stall went perfectly and it was all planned out properly. 

Everyone brought everything and it was well organized.

In the beginning we had no one coming but slowly the crowd came to our stall and bought lots of stuff and did the activities.

The things that went well were everything!

Next time I would maybe do a few more things and get more chocolates for guess that chocolate (We might do it again) and sell sherbet or fruit bursts.

WHAT I ENJOY DOING AT HOME

WHAT I ENJOY DOING AT HOME

• I like to do all sorts of stuff at home but one thing I absolutely love doing is playing with KITTY!!!!!

This may sound boring but it isn't because kitty isn't any old lazy cat that just sleeps, eats and licks herself but she is a ginger, fluffy cute outgoing cat (She is also a mongrel). 

What I like about playing with kitty is that lots of exercise is involved and in a way it it so fun. we Run round the house, pay with some catnip and I even have tought her how to lie down and sit up! It is basically like having your friend come over to your house except Kitty is a cat. 

I usually play with her in the weekends or if I'm lucky a few free days after school. Kitty really loves it and I'm sure your pets would like it too. So if you have a pet at home try playing with it and see how much fun it is and the amount of exercise you can get out of it.

•  If you have a pet at home and have done this tell me how it went!

Statistics

 Statistics

We have just completed our statistics unit in class and it was actually quite hard but i learnt a lot out of it.

 The areas of statistics I have improved in are pie graphs and defiantly angles. I am good at the other sort of graphs but pie graphs and angles were tricky at the start.

I don't think I need to improve on much but I think I need to try remember the mean, median, mode and range.

 I had done them quite a lot with Mrs Bourne a lot but forgot all the time!

 The thing I learnt from this unit and made me improve and teach me how to do it were pie graphs and angles. 

They are confusing at first sight but absolutely simple after. Now that I know them I look back and think 'How can I have not known these before they are so easy' It was a good unit and helped me learn a lot more then before.
