Questioning

I learnt a reading strategy called questioning.

How I found out the answers were incorrect or correct I read the book to find out the answers.

How I knew what the questioning meant the teacher explained to me what it meant.

There are 4 different types of questions.

I had to read a book called the Healers Apprentice.

After that I had to move the questions to right there' think and search' Arthur and me' and on my own.


LI to identify question types.

Tenses

There are 12 different types of tenses.

Some of the different tenses are past perfect continuous example the girl had been eating' present simple example the car arrives at the supermarket' past simple example the girl sat down.

Tenses are a type of reading strategy that helps you with your learning.

Some more examples are' past simple the boy learnt his timetables' future simple I will come to your house' present perfect the girl has gone for feedback.


LI About the tenses.

Inferring

We have been working on inferring.

Inferring is when you have an educated guess on something, using prior knowledge and reasoning.

When inferring remember to identify the image or text. For example if someone were to try use their prior knowledge on this image:

First use your prior knowledge. Someone may have prior knowledge that these are fruits that have price tags on there baskets. They might also see that the fruit has been layed out on a table.

By using this prior knowledge this could be someones inference: " I infer that someone is selling the fruits "

volume and capacity

Volume is how much space something has. Capacity is the amount that something contain. The standard forms are ml (milliliters) and l (liters).

Estimating is a educated guess to the amount of something is. If a person knows how much space in a lunchbox is 300cm cube, then they can compare the space with a measuring tube. If they know how much water are in the measuring tube. They can make a estimation.

Converting is not easy. If a person wants to convert ml (milliliters) to l (liters) just multiply the number by 1000. If the person wants to covert l (liters) to ml (milliliters) just divide the number by 1000

LI-To explore standard forms of Volume and Capacity

predictions

I read a book and made predictions about the book grandparents day.

the first answer I did was I think the cheese muffins that grandma are making are going to burn the answer was correct.

I think  I did ok because I got 3 correct out of 6.

masking art

In the past week we have been working on our masking art.

We used the masking tape to make shapes out of it so we didn't colour in between the tape.

I made triangles in different ways. The colours I used were: orange, dark blue, light blue, green, peach, purple and yellow.

To make this art it was very simple. We first got bits of masking tape, then we put the tape on the piece of paper and sectioned off parts.

Next we got some pastels and started to colour in the sections.

Third we took the tape off. We made sure that the tape didn't rip by taking it off very slow.

I felt really proud of my art because it didn't rip a lot.

Find draw animate and act.

First my group and i learned about the light and sound vocabulary.

We had to put the right answers by searching it up on the dictionary so we can find the answers to the light and sound vocabulary.

The next thing we did we had to use four words that was in the light and sound vocabulary.

 We had to describe the meaning of it by finding pictures and drawing,animate,and acting.

Our words were spectrum we drew a rainbow, reflect we made a flash light that bounces back the light.

 Vibration we did a video of Spelman shaking. Echo we did a picture of someone echoing.

We learnt about the light and sound vocabulary by engaging in this activity.
