Area

Walt: use tiles to cover the lounge floor.

Area

Today the orange group were tiling the  lounge floor. We were learning the concept  of area. I worked with Salomah. She was great help. We used rectangular shaped blocks to tile the lounge floor. Salomah and I used our hands to place the tiles on the lounge floor. I noticed that the  others had  different shaped and sized tiles. . The bigger tiles are the easier and faster to place. The other kids had smaller tiles to tile the lounge floor. They took longer. After we finish tiling the wood pieces on the whiteboard me and Salomah had to count how many wood pieces that we used to cover  lounge floor. Salomah and I used 13 x 3= 39 tiles. We  used our timetables.

Basic Facts T2

Walt: reflect on my basic facts assessment.

Maths

I got 94 out of 100 at  stage 5. The multiplication and addition was easy, because I knew all of them and I was quick at them. The challenging part of the test was

my division, because I knew some of them but some of the problems were hard and challenging.  Next I would like to learn my division facts and get all right in  test.

My Day as a Builder In Ancient Egypt

Walt: write correct paragraphs.

I’m a worker in Ancient Egypt. I’m building the three Pyramids of Giza. I was born 2580 BC.

I have been working for 20 years building the three pyramids. I get paid less than doctors.

I cut the blocks with a chisel and a saw . I pull the sledge toward the pyramid so I can stack the block on top of the other blocks.. We work in bare feet. Inside of the pyramids I place clay on the walls to make the blocks stick together.

When I have lunch breaks I have packed lunch and I eat bread and weak beer.Then I will get back to work. I have to make the pyramid in shape because so you can see the pyramid properly. It’s really hard.

Mummification

Walt: write an information report.

Mummification

The Ancient Egyptians mummified their dead. The brain was removed but not the heart.

Then the body was salted and then dried.. Then the Egyptians wrapped it in lots of  bandages. The Egyptian wrapped the mummies tightly, this stopped the mummy from  rotting away.

The Egyptians believed that the priest sent the dead spirit to another world. The priest would touch the mummy’s body with special instruments. The Egyptians put the mummies in a wooden case. The Pharaohs were placed in the stone coffins.
