Solving Double Digit Multiplication Problems Using Place Value Partitioning

My Reflection

We have been learning to solve multiplication problems using place value partitioning.  I found this easy because i know how to work it out.  My next step is to learn how to use a different strategy to work out harder problems.

Comparing Celebrations

My refelction
We have been learning to compare and contrast different celebrations.  My group researched information about Easter. Something I found interesting was you can celebrating by eating Easter Eggs..  Next we worked with another group and used a Venn diagram to compare our celebrations.Things that were the same were there were special foods and they are both celebrated with family.  My next step is to put more detail and information in the Venn diagram.

100 Word Challenge

My Reflection

I have been learning to add  detail to my writing.  We had to imagine we were a soldier or a family member and write about this picture.  I used punctuation to make my writing more interesting.  My next step is to use language features like similes onomatopoeia and alliteration.

Classifying Celebrations

My Reflection
We have been learning about celebrations.
There are different types of celebrations.
We had to talk about these celebrations and decide what type of celebration they were. I found this easy because i knew every single one of these celebrations very well.

Prefixes, Suffixes and root words

My Reflection

 I have been learning to use my knowledge of prefixes and suffixes to read and understand a meaning of words. A prefix is 5 letters or under to put on the beginning of a normal word that changes the meaning.

A suffix is like a prefix but just at the end of the word and it changes the meaning.
I found this easy because all I had to do is i had to find the beginning which is the prefix and the end is the suffix the middle is the root word. My next learning step is to identify the suffix.
