Quality Blog Commet

As part of writing, we were learning how to write a quality blog comments for students. This is my first comment for Room 5 Zahn, Sankyaw, My second comment for Room 5 Tim, and the last one comment that I did for Point England School Room 11. This kind of activity helps me to understand when you have written your comment you have read through twice and more than twice to find a mistakes in your own work.

Why do you think it is important to learnt maths in school?

This is my presentation about why do you think it is is important to learn maths in school. We used the ruler as our characters to make it more interesting. I collaborated on this presentation with one of my classmates, Manu. We think that this is a very cool way of telling people why Maths is important at school.

Writing in maths - San Tat

What is problem solving? Does it only happen in Maths?

Problem solving is when you are finding out numbers or an answer. When you are finding out an answer you have to have a strategy, so that you can explain it. When you are solving a problem you are explaining a strategy and finding out the answer. You need to have a strategy before you find out an answer. When you are solving a problem it doesn't only happen in maths it also happens in school, shops, work and sometimes at home.

Today for writing we had a 20 minutes maths quick write, We did this to give a clear explanation about problem solving. This helped us have a proper understanding of how to write a paragraph about problem solving. This can also help us to develop our knowledge in maths.

Flag Vote Results

Today we had a school vote based on which flag we would want the flag to be changed to. Every student in our school had a chance to choose which flag they wanted. Mr. Johnston shared the results with us today. I voted for the red and blue fern flag because it is very eye catching and I love the design.
