World War 1

This week we learned about world war 1.

First we got our headphones and watched and listened to find the key words. The key word I was trying to find was Lice and Rats.

Next we needed to write the events and effects. For example the rat is the size of a cat and lice gets inside of people’s clothes and rats also eat people’s dead bodies.

Lastly we made sure everything was right before blogging it.

I enjoyed this task because we needed to look for keywords. I did well on spotting the keywords in the videos and finding them on the website. I think I need to improve on writing less so the other writings can fit.

Times Tables

This week practised our times tables by using a task called prototec.

First we did prototec and Mr Oglivie said the year 5’s needed to do the times table 6 work and the year 6’s get to do the 7 times table work then year 4’s have to do 5 work.

Then I needed to test myself on the timed worksheet. After I did a non-timed I needed to press the mark to see how many questions I got right and I got wrong. I got 13 for the sheet one and 9 on the timed one.

Lastly we needed to write ten answers that we got wrong in the back of our maths books. So in our extra time we can practise our prototec.

I enjoyed doing this task because it tells me how many questions I got wrong and got right so it tells me if I need to practise more of my times table. I think I did well on the sheet one because it seems easy but it gets harder and harder. I need to improve on thinking faster on timed because I need to answer the question fast in time because it goes to the next question after 3 or 2 seconds.
