Learning to write a readers respons.




My Reflection
I am proud of my reader's response because I put a lot of effort into it.  I really thought about how my life connected to the poem.  This was a fun activity even though this poem was quite hard.  We had to learn when the poet wrote this to give us some more information. 
Next, I would like to keep on reading poems and responding to them.

Learning to solve maths word problems






Reflection on my learning:  

This term I have been learning how to solve maths word problems.
I learned that drawing a problem can help you figure out what is happening. It helps my mind to remember.



To do this problem I used my times table knowledge to help help work out 5 x $4 and 5 x 50c. I also drew a picture of the doll and the pocket money to make it easier to work out how many weeks she would need to save for.

I have also learned how to act out a problem and how to use a grid. I like using a grid because it's fun and it helps you to remember the doubles of big numbers.

Next, I would like to keep using grids.
