Flipgrid - Wold you rather?

Today we used Flipgrid to answer the question
 "Would you rather?"
Listen to what we decided.
Our Flipgrid was shared with Ormond School and they have added their responses and replied to some of us as well.

Real or Fake?

Today we were deciding if images that were found online were real or fake.
We then created our own media of an image 
to show our life at Matawai School.
Do you believe this is what we do at our school?

Using the Science Procedure

We have been learning to use the Scientific Procedure to record our findings. Here is what we found out from our reading about catching mustelids.


Leaf Observations

In science we have been making close observations of leaves. We put our leaves in a jar of water like scientists in ancient times did. Water acts like a magnifying glass.
We gathered a lot of data and recorded it on a chart to share.

Fun with Fractions

Fun with Fractions

We are finding using a number line is really helping our understanding of fractions. It helps us see that fractions are numbers that sit between the whole numbers. It helps us better image the size of the fraction and recognise equivalent fractions. Sometimes we work in teams and race each other to place a fraction. We have to collaborate and be able to back up our decisions. We seem to be happy in our learning.😁
