Clay art

A few weeks ago me and my class made air clay sculptures to represent our family. some made kiwis, taniwhas, ferns, hearts and some other really cool designs. I made a kiwi because my whole family are New Zealanders. It got quite messy and mucky but it was fine. they dried after a few days, some of the clay art broke, my kiwis legs came off. I think my whole class enjoyed.

Have you ever made air dry clay art?

What I have learnt.

I have learnt ALL of my basic facts and squares/ square roots. I now know my times tables from 1 to 12, same with my divides, same with my squares and squares roots. I now know tricks for your time tables, I also know tricks for my divides. I know some strategy's. Some of the strategy's are new to me. The strategy's make math easier. 

first NZ national government election.

On the 30th November 1949 the first national government election was led by Peter Fraser, was defeated by Sidney Holland's national party after 14 years in office. The result heralded a long period of national domination.

I learnt about decimals and fractions

I've learnt more about fractions, for an example the fraction two thirds is the exact same as four sixths. If you double the fraction you were using it is the exactly the same fraction. The number below the line (the denominator) is a fraction, a divisor. The number above the line (the numerator) the numerator is a fraction, showing the number of parts indicated from the denominator are taken.

I learnt more about decimals. I can understand decimals now. I can now change fractions into decimals.

what do you now about fractions and decimals.
