The 2 gods

Walt:Write an impactful introduction to our Maori myth


“Look!” “Look!” shouted Haumia, “There's a steep hole in the middle of the path.”
The hole was so big it could fit a whole elephant inside of it. Tumatauenga did not hear and stumbled into the whole and bursted up into flames. He started to tramp on over to Mission Bay.


On the way to Mission Bay Tumatauenga started to pick up soda cans,lolly wrappers and  a lot of tiny rocks. He put everything  inside of his bag so when he arrives at Mission Bay he can throw all of it inside of the water.


When Tumatauenga arrived at Mission Bay he started to throw soda cans,lollies wrappers into the sea, with 1,000 tiny stones. Tangaroa got furious and flew out of the sea. Tangaroa face turned red his hair all started to point up in the sky. He summoned his sea creatures to come up and frighten away Tumatauenga. Tumatauenga got scared and said that he was sorry.


Tumatauenga calmed down and picked up all of the soda cans,lolly wrappers in the sea and told Tangaroa that he will never throw rubbish in the sea again. On the way home Tumatauenga patched up the steep hole in the ground and made sure no one else fell in.

Add and Subtract fractions

Today I learnt how to add and subtract in fractions. This game taught me how to simplify and add and subtract all in one game.I beat all of the other racers and I only got one answer wrong. I think that i could improve on getting none wrong and I would have had a better score and faster time. This game was easy for me because I practiced and practiced and then I finally came first. I think that this game is suitable for year 6's. Next I want to learn more on how to do it.

Today we were learning how to do ratio and proportion this game was about what is equal to the number. For example 1 to 3 is 2 to 6 because it doubles or you can half it but to do this you should know your multiplication or halvings. This game was easy for me because I know how to do both of the strategies. Next I want to learn my order operation better.

Ratio

Today in class we were learning how to do ratio I couldn't really understand how to do it until Mr Beel taught me how to do it properly and I understood it. For example If A:B =6:3 What is B if A is 6? The answer would be 3 because 6 x 1 = 6 then 3 x 1 is 3 so the answer has to be 3. This activity was easy to do because I know how to do my multiplication in maths and understand all of it. Next I want to learn how to do more examples like this.
