Place value L4.5

I was learning to read numbers up to decimals and millions and to say which is bigger or smaller.
The thing that helped me most was using my basic facts to help with bigger numbers
My next step is to:

- try the same activity suing bigger numbers
- use this information to move problems

T1 W7 :D

This week we started a challenge similar to the Blue whale challenge. This is a challenge for the novel readers, named The Charlotte's Web Challenge. Like the last one it is a range of challenges, each different to the other challenges.  The only differences are that 1) It's only for the novel readers and 2) A spider  is slightly smaller than a whale.*

*Who would've known?

Blue whale

This week we did-and still are doing-a blue whale challenge. This challenge contains 10 challenges. We were put into pairs and two pairs could work together.I am finding this challenge hard and fun.  My  next step is to do...   erm...   the parts I haven't done?

                                                            

Term 1 Week 4

Last week we read Charlotte's web.  It has a rather basic plot, the pig, Wilber, is a runt of the litter and fern, the girl, wants him to live instead of get killed.  After this event has passed Wilber is sold to another farmer, who is plotting to kill send him to sleep for a very long time. I honestly have nothing else to say except... It's a story about a pig...? 

My welcome post :D

 Welcome to my Year 5 learning blog*. This year I am in room 28/29 and my teachers are Mrs Graham and Mrs Melville. I enjoy reading. This year I am looking forward to dodge-ball. I hope you will enjoy my blog and leave lots of feedback. :D 

*Like the year 4 one, but year 5. That's one more number! YAAAAY!

African Praise poem

I have been learning to write a African praise poem. I found this work tricky because there aren't many animals that can describe me. The most challenging thing was, surprisingly, publishing, because there wasn't enough space on the table for both the computer and my book. My next step is to find out if there are any other types of poems indigenous to certain countries.:D
