Fraction of a set

 Reflection:
So I thought that this was pretty hard because fractions aren't my kind of thing. The easy thing about this was doing the unit fractions I find them easy. My goal is to get better at doing my fractions.

Diary Post T2 W7

So my class and I have been doing some great learning over the past few weeks.  Here are the things we have done. 

Last week my class and I did a Matariki rotation with Year 4 students. (It is about the celebration of the 7 sisters stars).We did a lot of different activities as we went through class after class. After all of that some trainee teachers did a play of a modern like version of the 7 sisters. It was funny and cool to watch.

We started a thing called SDL (AKA) Self Directed Learning. It's a when you get a set of tasks to do for a week. It's good for our learning skills. We always do SDL on laptops. I liked doing this because some of the activities were easy.

 So that's what we have been doing for the last few weeks and I have enjoyed all of it especially the Matariki rotation.

My Grid Value Portrait

Grid Value Portraits

Last term my class and I have been making some grid value portraits. If you don't know what a grid value portrait is, well then I'll tell you. It is a type of art that uses grids like squares.we took pictures of our class mates individual. The pictures we took of our self's were in black and white which would make it easier to see where to make one square darker or lighter. Also when the pictures came out we had to rule them down and across. Then we got a huge paper that had grids. Afterwards we had to look at our picture to see if we could see were to make light patterns or a dark pattern. In the end we made our self's out of light and dark patterns. Also we were inspired by the artist Chuck Close, we found out that he went through hard times but he never gave up.
