SSR Selfie Lost In Outer Space

We did another SSR Selfie and I did a non fiction back about outer space.

I learnt 3 new words that I don't know and three key pieces of information about the main topic. Like plants, galaxy, and Apollo 13.

I enjoyed the book because I learnt lots of new facts about Out Of Space.

LI to use the SSR Selfie independent task.


 

Making Connection

We can make connections when we read: text to self, text to text, text to world.

A text to self connection is something about the book and something that is the same about the book and yourself. For example The duck tried to protect herself from the highway rat. My connection is I protect myself from my brother. My connection is protecting yourself.

A text to text connection is a book and another book that have similar ideas. For exmaple The duck told the highway rat I have a sister in a cave. My connection is Moana got tricked by Maui and he trapped her in the cave. My connection is tricking people to go into a cave.

A text to world is the book you read and something around the world. For exmaple the duck gave the food back to the villgers. My connection is the other people give the food to the homeless. My connection is giving food to others.

These 3 connections help people to understand what they are reading.

Teamwork

 Teamwork is a term to describe a group of people working together to achieve a goal. 

Teamwork consists of three main mechanisms. Communicaton is talking to or planning somthing out. When people in a dodgeball team communicate they tell each other when a ball is coming their way.

Cooperation is being a good team member while working together. People in a dodgeball team cooperate by listening and following a plan to be successful.

Collaboration is working together to be successful or finish somethi ng. An example of collabration is when players in a dodgeball team collabrate and work together in a game to win.

To be successful as a team all three mechanisms need to implemented throughout the activity.

Basic Facts

 I did another basic facts and did up to 20 and did a speed demon challegne. 

I then put in my results. I did times table, My score was 100/100 and my time was 3 minutes and 25 seconds. 

 My time was 3 minutes and 25 seconds and impoved in my time.

Next time I will do this task I will practise my divistion and do them. 


Private vs Public Information

Private vs public information is something that you are happy to post or something that you want to keep as a secret.

Public information is something that can show other people. Public information is also like a video that you want to show to the world.

Private information is a secret people don't want to show to others or give it to others that you trust.

If information isn't kept safe, it could be shared, brodcast, copied, or stolen.

Character Trait The Duck

A character trait is something that helps make a summarise of your story and adding adjective in your story.

A adjective is a describing word that shows what the character's feeling are.

The duck tried to procted herself because she didn't want to get eaten by the highway rat.

The adjective hero was chose because it is a good word to match the feeling and what she did. The adjective courageous was chose because it is nice and fits togther with the feelings.

Character trait is important because it can summarise the story for an indepth understanding.

Fact Or Opinion

I did a fact or opinion and doing the duck from the highway rat.

First our teacher read the highway rat.

Then I wrote my fact first and my opinion secound. I wrote about the duck in the story. 

I wrote four more and worte what happens next. I about how she is brave helpful scraed and respectful. I chose this because it's a good person in the story and lots of facts I will know.

I wrote five adjectives in each opinion box. I was doing adjectives that she is doing.

I need to work on my opinion because I always write a fact about the duck.

 



 

Multiplication

We did a multiplication task to understand how numbers work.

First we did a group of unkown amount of counters. We took a photo on our slide and put arrows of how many groups are in a 1 digit number.

Then we put numbers next to our arrows so we know how much is there. We did our multiplication and find out what is the unkown amount. 

Next we wrote about what we did and how we did it. We also put another label for how many groups  and how much we did.

Last we did a 3 more sildes and did four, three and nine. We wrote all about the big groups with our unkown amount.  

I liked this task because it can help me with my learning.
