Kia ora koutou,
Today, for maths, we have been learning how to multiply by 10s. We had to answer all of the questions that were in our Math book. Some were easy, and some were hard, but i was strategizing on the ones that were hard to answer.
You can have a look at my mahi below.

This week for panui, we have been reading a book in Te Reo. We had to read the book and make sure we understood it. Then we have to make a presentation about it and do some Maori sentences and video yourself reading the book. and make a game with the words in the book as well.
Play my word search game, and here is my Panui presentation

WALT:
Kia ora koutou,
This week for Korero, we have to practise using present-tense verbal sentence structure. we follow
E (kupumahi) ana+tangat+I te/ki te+(kupu ingoa/wahi). For example, E kanikani ana ia i te tepu
which means She is dancing on the table. interesting, every verb ends with ¨ing¨ when using E____ana or kei te. Did you also know that ¨i te¨ can mean at, in, ” or ” on? Aslo kei te tells us that the tangata is going somewhere
we use cards on the wall to help us when we are stuck and need new sentnces.

This week, for Tuhituhi, we had to create our own sentences. We had to use the words E, I, and Ka, we have to make a video of ourselves saying them. This was very easy to do; I had some help from my friends because I was not here. ´Ka´ is future tense, ´I´ is past tense, and ´E´ presents tense; that is all you have to know if u are stuck.
Have a Look at my presentation.

WALT: Understanding order of operations
Kia ora koutou,
This week for Pangarau, we learnt about B.E.D.M.A.S. or as Brackets, Exponent, Divison, Multiplication, Addtion, then Subtraction. This is important to know when we have a problem that has a mixture of different operations like the problem like
what was interesting i that, if we don’t follow the correct order, everyone gets a different answer. So who is right: the person who used BEDMAS?

WALT: Round the 7-digit number to the nearst 10 ,100,10000, 10,000, 100,000
1.000,00,
The key vocabulary we’ve been focusing on is estimate, rounded to the nearst…….approximate approixmately
This week we have using number lines to help us to determine if the number we were interested in was being rounded up or down. we would identify the digit that we are interested in and look at the digit to its right. for example the digit 2,973,190. if we were to round to the neasrt 100 then the digit 3 and its pair 1 in the hundreds coulumn are the the numbers we are interested in. 31 is closer to 30 so , we would say 2, 973,190 is approixmately equal to 2,973,000.
It is essential to know the plave value. at level 4 we are expected to be able to round up to 10 million
we had help from out teacher and now we know what we are doing.
Here is a video explaning my thinking

The senior syndicate visited Urupukapuka this week, where we engaged in a variety of activities and went for a quick run here and there. After that, we played games and engaged in spider crawls and other enjoyable activities. We then proceeded up a hill and down another, where we had to run in the heat, but at least we went swimming after everything we had done there.
Have a look at my presentation:)
Herenga ki Urupukapuka by Waimirirangi Stowers
WALT: Use powers of ten, such as exponent, multiply, repeated multiplication, standard form, and base.
I discovered that the numbers at the top simply represent the number of zeros in the number. For example, 10 to the power of 6 would equal 100,000 because 10x10x10x10x10=100,000, and you can see that there are five zeros. Thinking about what to say on the second slide was something I found intriguing; I was at a loss for words, so I chose bewilderment. Additionally, I can improve by going into greater detail and discussing our work more.
I hope you had fun.

This week for inquiry, my classmates and I had to research solutions to protect our waterways.
The hard thing about reaching out is understanding what you are searching for in each topic, whenever I was stuck I went to perplexity AI, which helped me to understand it more clearly. This presentation also tells us we should keep our rivers clean.
Here is my presentation.
