Using repeated addition for multiplication

      My reflection      

      I was learning how to do multiplication by using repeated addition. I did not like it much because I            found it hard.

WALT look after our environment.

Room 4 has been thinking about how we can help the environment and animal habitats, especially aquatic animals. We have learned that even if it is far away from the ocean, rubbish can still find its way there. We went out one afternoon and collected as much rubbish as we could find from around our school. We know that if everyone does a little bit to help the environment, we can make a big difference.

WALT create repeating and sequential patterns.

Room 4 have been learning about patterns during maths time. We have found out that there are two different types of patterns, repeating, where the patterns continues the same way, and sequential, where it gets bigger. After learning about these patterns and looking at some examples, we were able to explore patterns through different materials and made our own! It was a lot of fun!

WALT work with a buddy.

Room 4 has been lucky to have been able to work with our Year 4 buddy class, Room 16. They have been working on their inquiry topic, Volcanoes and wanted to share what they had learnt with us. We had fun making a paper volcano and learning some fun facts along the way!

WALT Explore and act on issues and questions that link our science learning to our daily living.

As a part of our inquiry topic, Under the Sea, Room 4 has been looking at the effects of human activity on aquatic animal habitats. We followed the story of 'Freddy the Fish' who was cut out of sponge and soaked up all of the different pollutants that we added to his home as the story went on. It was interesting for us to see all of the different ways that our actions affected Freddy's habitat. Even though we had fun adding all of the different 'pollutants', it made us feel sad to see how dirty Freddy's water had become.

This led us to think of how we could fix what we had done and decided to try to clean Freddy's water and home. We looked at making a water filter out of sand, gravel and coffee filters. We could definitely see a difference between the polluted and filtered water, but it was nowhere near as crystal clear as it had been before. It showed us that pollution is hard to reverse once it is done.
