Smart Money T4 .24

Malo Everyone,

This week we have been learning about Budgeting and Finance. So since we were on this topic our teacher decided that she should make some slides about Buyer Beware of the scammers when you online shop. We had to watch the video that comes with the slides and they all talked about the dangers of scammers and online shopping. So I will put some of the tips that will make the site look like a fraud and a scam. I will also add my slides and something else down here for you guys to see.

  • Make sure to check different sites before purchase
  • Double check all the information of the item your purchasing is there
  • Make sure if the website is suspicious if it is do not purchase

There is going to be another slide down here for you guys to see.

Thank you for reading my blog I hope you have a good rest of your day and remember to spread the gospel.

Structure of an Argument T4 .24

Guten Tag Everyone,

This week for writing we have been working on how to structure an argument. And some of the points that an argument needs are the purpose of the argument. Evidence – Proof of the statement, Two points of view being told, Understand the topic, Agreement and Disagreement on why, Persuade, Evidence along with 3 examples to testify against your opponent, reason + evidence and conclusion. These are the things that we created on our Google drawing. We had to learn about this because the year 8’s are going to high school and they are going to learn this in high school so it is good to learn it now so when they get to high school they already know about it. And the topic of the argument that we were discussing about is  Girls are better learners than boys and I think it is true. But if you would like to see my work it will be down here for you to see.

Thank you for reading my blog I hope you have a good rest of your day and remember to spread the gospel.

Compound Interest Math T4 .24

Namaste  Everyone,

For math this week we have been learning about compound interest and savers and spenders also percentages. So we discussed the wants and the needs and we have to explain which we think we are out of the spenders and savers. I think I am a spender because when my parents give me money I spend it on chocolate and candy and spend it all in one second. So firstly we had to do some budgeting and economics which I have already blogged about. And then we had to work in a book that used Compound Interest and something that used are you a spender or saver. So to work out compound interest is easy so you have a bit of money in the first year and then say you have 7% interest you have to take how much money you have and then times x it by the percent so if I had 100 then I had to x times them by he 7% and then you do not press the equals button because it will give you a different number. So I will put my DLO of spender and savers and compound interest down here for you to see. For the interest the percentage was 7 %. I will also put a photo of the percentages that are on  the ASB website.

Thank you for reading my blog I hope you have a good rest of your day and remember to spread the gospel.

Reading Response Plastic Free – Enviroment .24

Kia Ora Everyone,

This week for reading we have been looking at making the world a better place. So firstly like the rest of the reading responses we had to make a copy. Then we had to do the activities that were on the slides. On some of the slides were something that related to rubbish. So there were these bunch of kids from a school, and they started to collect rubbish so they could help the Environment and the rubbish won’t go everywhere and pollute the earth. They also learned about this one guy that started an inflatable thing to capture the rubbish from going deeper into the ocean. I will put down my work that I worked on. I liked doing this because it was not a challenge but I learned something that could help the earth.

4 Horses and The 4 Toys T4 .24

Kumusta Everyone,

Last week and this week for writing we have been working on writing endings for writing. And at the second week of term 4 we were writing about Little Red Riding and her ending but the story was twisted the Big Bad Wolf was Little Red Riding Wolf and Little Red Riding Hood was Big Bad Girl. But in my opinion it should have been Big Bad Hood because the end of her name was Hood it would make sense that it would have been Hood instead of Girl but that is the illustrator’s choice.  But for writing this week we had to write a whole story that related to 3 Billy Goats Gruff. And I will put my story down here for you guys to read. The story will be in a blue colour and if you could give me some feedback so I could improve on my writing.

 

Once upon a time there were 4  horses on a hillside playing with their toys then came along the ferocious wind scoping up the toys and rolling them over the bridge. Then the tiniest horse trying to tip-toe across my bridge then here I come the bravest prettiest smartest cow you have ever seen before well it was just a bit of a lie well I was the smallest ugliest dumbest cow you have ever seen”.  Then I say “ What are you doing stomping on my bridge at this time” then milly says “ Well Mr Brown Cow I am sorry to interrupt you well my toy has gone over the bridge may I please cross over and you can have my older brother he is way more bigger and you could have bigger thighs for dinner” exclaimed Milly. So then I said “ Fine you may pass my bridge but if you are lying then I am coming for you”. Then went milly tip toeing across my bridge. Then I sat down on my seat that was about to break but then all of a sudden I heard someone tip-toeing across my bridge. Then I say  “ What are you doing stomping on my bridge at this time”. Then I look up and see it is Billy. Then he says “Well I wasn’t stomping on your bridge I was actually tip-toeing on your bridge but may I please cross the bridge I need to get my toy back”. But I wasn’t playing dumb so I said” What are you going to give me in return for this passing”. He said to me “ Well in a short while you hear a four tip-toeing and if you do then it will be my brother he is the oldest and you can have him for your dinner make sure that it is  the fourth and not the third”. So then I let Billy pass then he stomped his way to the other side. So then a short time later I hear a third tip-toeing and then I jump onto my bridge and say “ What are you doing stomping on my bridge at this time” then Tilly says “ Well I was just trying to pass to grab my toy just like my other siblings that have been past so may you please excuse me while I cross the bridge”. I say “ Nope, what do you have in return for letting you pass my bridge well as you probably know I have an older brother and you can have him all to yourself for dinner so now excuse me I have a toy to catch”. So then I let her pass with care. Along came my dinner tip-toeing across my bridge then I jumped up with hungriness and happiness then Silly said “ Why are you looking at me like that”. Then I say “ Well you are my dinner for the next few days so get prepared for the fire”. Then he kicks me up into the air and then I scream “ Wait till I come back I will have you for dinner and then I landed in some cow poop and then I was eaten and then the horses lived happily ever after.

Budgeting / Economics T4 .24

Malo E Lelei

Today we had to classify expenses into wants or needs. So I will put it down here for you to see. So as you can see this is what we did we did this on a doc.

DOC with work

This is the work that we did it was something that we had to work on for at least two days. Then we had to do some other different work in the same math book because we were still looking at money. SO we had to budget the persons money she wanted to donate to charity but she only wanted to donate $400 and she had $1000 but remember she only wants to donate $400 so we had to do some research to see what charity we would donate to if we had that $400. But that was what we did for math these past few weeks I hope you liked it.

Thank you for reading my blog I hope you have a good rest of your day.

Exponents Math T4 .24

Ola Everyone,

For the past weeks this term we have been working on exponents. So firstly we had to discuss as a class what we need to know about exponents. So then we had to know how to expand exponents and turn it into multiples for e.g. 2 ^ 3 = 2 x 2 x 2 = 8 this might trick your brain well it is really a simple one to solve. Firstly you have to times 2 x 2 which equals 4 and then you do 4 x 2 = which is 8 and that would be your answer because you times the 2 three times. Before learning about exponents we were learning about BEDMAS and the E represents Exponents which is to the power of. And this button ^ means power of because we do not have a button that can make the number small. So if you would like to see my work it will be down here for you to see it will be a math DLO. As you can see the equations are some of the equations we have done in our maths book that we learnt about.

Little Red Riding Wolf Writing Ending

Talofa Lava Everyone,

WALHT : Write a different ending for stories we know.

Our teacher is previously reading to us little Red writing Wolf. This story is an alternative to Little Red Riding Hood. Some things that I know of Little Red Riding Hood.

  •  Little Red Hood is a sweet girl who’s previously living with her grandmother
  • Little Red Riding Hoods  grandmother was dinner for the wolf
  • Little Red Riding Hood  favourite colour was red
  • When this happened Little Red Riding Hood was about 3 -4 years old
  • Little Red Riding Hood  was picking food for her sick grandmother
  • Little Red Riding Hood  wears a red cape over her clothes
  • Little Red Riding Hood made some food
  • Little Red Riding Hoods grandmother lives in the woods
  • Little Red Riding Hoods grandmother got trapped in the closet

So these are some facts that I know about Little Red Riding Hood. But remember the story is reversed the girl is called Big Bad Girl and the wolf is called Little Red Riding Wolf. So down here I will add my ending of the story. My ending of the story will be in bold and you do not need to read the entire thing.

Little Red Riding Wolf

“ I am going to dear Old Granny’s Wolf’s house to see if she is feeling better and to thank her for this lovely hat”.  “ I am going to go and pick some flowers so I can make my dear Old Granny feel much better”. Then the Big Bad Girl said “ Well I should let you go on your way bye blob of jam with a cherry on top”. “ Bye bye Big Bad Girl” said Little Red Riding Wolf.  So then there went Little Red Riding Wolf humming to herself. Then when Big Bad Girl didn’t see Little Red Riding Wolf she started laughing and then she said to herself “ Blob of jam with a cherry on top” and then she cackled while walking all the way back home. So then Little Red Riding Wolf arrived safely to her Dear Old Granny’s house so she walked to her Granny and then gave her the flowers. And then she smiled but she didn’t know that the smile would turn upside down. Then as Little Red Riding Wolf goes to pick some food to make soup she sees the Big Bad Girl walking around. So then she just continues to pick her ingredients. The Big Bad Girl sneaks into the Old Granny’s house and then she took Granny and trapped her in Granny’s closet and then took her and her nightcap and it was the most horrid hat that Big Bad Girl had ever seen it was more worse than her fathers hat that he creates. Then Little Red Riding Wolf came in and said “ Granny oh dear Granny I am home I am home look at the outfit does it suit me”. Then the Big Bad Girl said o-oh y-y-yes dear it looks wonderful and lovely you should be a model. Then Little Red Riding Hood said “ Oh thank you dear granny”. Then Little Red Riding Hood said “ Granny have you grown a few pounds I can hear the bed squeaking and creaking and what is wrong with your teeth it has gone smaller and greener and your eyes are smaller and they are now green and your ears are so small like a human”. Then the Big Bad Girl said “ I-I-I have gone to the doctors and done some surgery where it looks different”. Little Red Riding Wolf had said “ Wait a minute are you” and then Little Red Riding Wolf tore the blanket of “Granny” ( Which is Big Bad Girl )  and then Little Red Riding Wolf screamed ( which means Little Red Riding Wolf wolfed ).  And then outside was the wood chopper just chopping down the woods and then he hears the scream and starts to run towards the house. Then he barges through the door and sees Big Bad Girl trying to eat Little Red Riding Wolf and she had just flipped Little Red Riding Wolf upside down. And was about to eat Little Red Riding Wolf by the feet but then the wood chopper was frightening Big Bad Girl because of the axe he was holding and then she dropped Little Red Riding Wolf and ran away. And then Little Red Riding Wolf thanked the axe chopper and then Granny started banging on the closet and then Little Red Riding Wolf opened the closet door and then Granny went onto the bed and then she slept on the bed and fell asleep. And then the wood chopper and Little Red Riding Wolf were laughing. Then the Big Bad Girl went home and then she had to wear all of her fathers hats that he created and she was so depressed and lonely.

Reading Response Bugbix T4 .24

Kumusta Everyone,

This week for our reading response we have been working on our reading response which is all about bugs mostly about worms. As you can see on the head title it says Bugbix I think it means Weet – Bix but with bugs in the beginning. For this activity we had to read at least 2 journals because there were different activities that needed you to read a journal. We also needed to make a flyer which is like a poster my poster is about what worms can eat but as a question like What can worms eat ??? It only took me two days to finish because we had to spend most of the day doing our reading activity. And did you know that 1/4 of the worlds population eat bugs in the daily that is like thousands or maybe millions of people eating dead bugs maybe even alive. If you would like to see my work it will be down here for you to do. I am sorry that there is a blank on slide 7 at the bottom there was a spelling mistake and I did not know what word it was.

Thank you for reading my blog I hope you have a good rest of your day and remember to spread the gospel.
