James @ Hamilton East School

My maths reflection : I learnt how to make a kahoot . You have to go onto get a kahoot and then log in and you can click on quiz and add all the required stuff and then you can start making questions  

My wordle from Daily 5 !

Today I learned time in Maori ! Somebody says "Ko te aha te wā". And you answer with "Ko te (time) karaka te wā." In the time you put in Tahi, Rua, Toru, Wha, Rima, Ono, Whitu, Waru, Iwa, tekau  (Might be wrong spelling).  R: I learned how to say the time in Maori . It was fun learning it. I would like to teach it as a student workshop. 

Today I have done some problem solving for maths. I had to figure out what strategy some people used in the book and then I solved a question. The question was "I ordered 5 gym mats costing $98 each. What was the total cost." You can see my working below.

One day I did some maths. Below this text is my question Problem 1. You have these three Cuisenaire rods: a. In what ways can you use these rods to measure a length of 6 centimeters? b. What other lengths can you make by arranging these rods in various ways? This is my answer for b: 3cm 7cm Sorry that there is not an answer for a because I did not have time This is an old post from last year

Natural disasters in NZ! There are lots of disasters. Sometimes they can cost lots of money to fix and it is scary for towns/cities when they happen! There is earthquakes, tornados, floods, forest fires, volcanoes and lots more in NZ! Sometimes earthquakes can make floods because they might break the water pipes underground! Also, they could break a wall around a river and then it starts to flood! Did you know that Hamilton is quite safe from earthquakes? There have been 20 earthquakes in NZ (New Zealand) 2010 to 2016 (2010-2016). There has only been 1 in Waikato at Taupo! Christchurch has had 4 earthquakes (2010 to 2016). Only talking about ones with a better magnitude of 60. Also not talking about aftershocks. Did you know that tornados can spin up to 300 mph? Also, did you know that tornados often come from very very early in the morning to bedtime? They still come at other times. Tornados can also be named twisters or whirlwinds.

We saw mosquitos! Whaea Georgia found them and talked about them and then picked one up. Somebody told Pippa (Principal) and she said something like “Oh no! We don’t want disease-carrying biting bugs!!” Did you know the mosquito carries a very bad disease? Pippa asked Dugeon (Care Taker) and Dugeon took out the dirty water out of the H.E.S pool.

Today I finished the stop motion. Here it is!

I have been making a stop motion. It is about a ball coming to an evil ball and if the evil ball wins the game of chess the ball has to become evil and if the ball wins then the evil ball will have to stop evil. I will upload a video when I am finished. I have used the think tool: 5 w's and 1 h THE MOVIE IS FINISHED:  http://hesjamesb.blogspot.co.nz/2016/09/evil-ball-does-deal-stopmotion.html

Today/Monday 12 September our class did some science! We found out that if you use cold water it can only disolve about 8 times and if you use hot water it can dissolve 24 times! Here is some media We also made some Oobleck.

Today is a big day! There is a practice in the hall with our costumes . Here is some photos of people in their costumes. Also we went on chrome books and other stuff for most of the day .  What I have learnt: I have learnt more of chess. Chess is one of the most favorite games

Here is stuff I have found on Wonderopolis for my word collecter: This is what I readed:

In my class, we do behaviour learning goals. In a book there are lots of goals we can choose. I picked "I listen actively" so I have to try and complete the goal.

Some people made QR codes in the school. We done it by uploading videos to my drive and then copying the link into a QR generator. Here is the QR codes we made. A couple may not work. Steps:

One day I learnt how to play chess. To play you have to capture every piece on the other team. You can also try and check the other team a bunch of times that they get checkmate.

For the operetta, I come on the stage first. We all sing the ditty. The ditty is "Bright fine gold, Bright fine gold, One a pecker, Two a pecker Bright fine gold, Spend it in the summer and you die in the cold, It cannot light a lantern or even ease a pain, And yet we go on searching tho' we search in vain, Bright fine gold Bright fine gold, One a pecker, Two a pecker, bright fine gold". When the class says the first "Bright fine gold" Kaya comes on to the stage,  When the class says the 2nd "Bright fine gold" I come onto the stage. Reflection: I enjoy doing the operetta, I learnt the word ditty. It means a 'short song'. I have thought creatively by doing something people haven't already done.

At maths time I went to a math station with shapes! You could make patterns. Here are some pictures.

How to play Tag (H.E.S Edition) What you need: 2 + People. More is better 1. Find people to play with 2. Choose a random person to be in from the start. The person who wanted to play can choose.
