LI: To write a list poem that describes a topic by painting with your words.

We learnt about different ways to write and create poems, we were challenged by our teachers to create a poem about what is something. For example: What is a Million, What is family and many other things that you are thinking about. We also had to follow the structure used to write our paired poem to construct a list poem.

Our group was revising on how to subtract decimals numbers using algorithm. It’s just like adding but one thing that you have to remember with subtracting the first number at the start has to be a the top and you subtract and if the number at the bottom of the numbers is bigger then the number a the bottom you have to borrow from the number next to it.

Group 2 in LS2 have been revising on round numbers up to the billions.

Rounding is a useful skill to estimate. In this blog, we will be teaching you how to round. You need to know place values were you can find our example in our earlier blogs. To round you need a base number, I’ll pick a random one. (482.119) if rounding and you see a question asking to round to the nearest tenth you need to realise that the “th” means that it is in the decimal, not the whole number. in this number rounding to the nearest tenth would be the 1 after the 9 in the decimal place. due to the number being higher than 4, we round up. which is rounding to the nearest tenth. which would be 20 in this case. This would change the number to 482.120. I hope that this blog has taught you how to round.

This week in math, Group 2 is learning about something called the highest common factor. Basically, the highest common factor is the biggest number that can divide into two or more numbers exactly, without leaving anything left over.

To understand this better, think about what factors are. Factors are numbers that you can multiply together to make a bigger number. For example, if you multiply 6 by 8, you get 48. So, 6 and 8 are factors of 48.

When we talk about the highest common factor of two numbers, we are looking for the biggest number that can fit evenly into both of those numbers. For example, if you look at 12 and 18: the factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12; and the factors of 18 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18. The biggest number that appears in both lists is 6. So, the highest common factor of 12 and 18 is 6. This means 6 is the largest number that divides evenly into both 12 and 18.

One interesting fact I learnt was if I taught students and learnt st getting good at finding the highest common factor it helps them to understand how numbers relate to each other and can be useful in many math problems, like simplifying fractions or dividing things into equal parts

We created a digital image of “Moko ika hiku waru,” a special eight-tailed taniwha from Māori lore believed to live under New Zealand’s Panmure Bridge. Working in small groups, we began the project by outlining the creature’s basic shape on the computer before adding details to bring it to life.

Our group’s main goal was to make the artwork look striking, dynamic, and visually appealing, like something straight out of a fantasy story. To achieve this, we used a mysterious palette of blues contrasted with pops of orange, and applied a radiant glowing effect to give the creature a sense of energy and magic. Ultimately, the project was about combining imagination with digital skills and teamwork to create a legendary creature that sparks curiosity and awe.

For this task we learnt how to speak like a caveman, To do this you dont need to use sentences, for example, Me need eat, Me go play, and me need toilet. The best time to use notes are when you are watching a video or when the teacher is talking about something important.

Today LS2 learnt about abstract nouns, and how to put them into use.  Abstract nouns are something you can feel mentally but not physically. Abstract nouns are words that help you feel a maultitude of feeling whether it is empathy, sadness, anger, or joy.

Talofa lava, Last week was somaon language week, and our class made a Google video to explain how to make Samoan speaking students feel more comfortable and easier to understand by giving examples on common phrases that are said in Samoan.

This week we had finished the audio book of “The Boy In The Striped Pajamas”, This book had 20 chapters and it took around 2 weeks to finish it. This story was very interesting and very deep, After we finished this story we learnt was an antogonist, protagonist, round character, and a flat character. An antogonist is like the main villain, they go against the main character. a protagonist is a main character or hero that go against the villain. A round character is someone that we get to know personality and have more emotion like happieness. And a fat Charater is like a background character that has no emotion and we don’t know much about.
