Grandma Georges Marvelous Medicine


         My Reflection
I have been learning to relate characters in the text.  

We have been reading George's Marvellous  Medicine.  I thought of some words to describe Grandma form what I learnt from her in the story.  

I found this easy because the author uses good words to describe her in the story. 

My next step is to write a paragraph describing Grandma using these words.

Multiplication Strategy




My Reflection

The strategy I understood really well was the Place Value strategy.  I found the part where you split the numbers into tens and ones so you can multiply them easy to understand.  My next step is to work on harder numbers like 124 x 6.

Reflection:

I have been reading the book Cry of the Taniwha. I was identifying the personalities of the characters in the story. I enjoyed doing this because we could see what the characters were like. My next step is to identify more characters using a prejudice map.

We are learning about unit fractions of a set.
One thing that worked for me was knowing my basic facts because if you know your basic facts, your good at fractions.
One thing that was tricky for me was

Understanding a Character's Impact


I was learning to understand the characters impact on the story.  I felt confident about this learning.  The thing that helped me most was talking on mat.  My next step would be to read more books and use the same ideas.
