Budgeting DLO

This week for maths we created a DLO that explains the food we are eating in a week and the prices of them. Our budget is 200 dollars and we were to find the right amount of food for a week for the right amount of money. We (Angela, Sela, Jayden, Joseph and I) used $199 with a remainder of $1. We had different food for everyday, but we had maybey 4 or 5 foods that are the same. I liked this activity because it was fun and it included food and money.

Maori: Simpsons Family Tree

This week for maori we created a simpsons family tree. We created this activity so we could focus on learning maori family phrases. Ko wai te papa o Lisa? Means who is the papa of Lisa, which is homer simpsons. These are the phrases we learnt, but there are many more like who is your mum, or grandad or sister. I liked this activity because I learnt new maori words and it included the simpsons.

Wasp Life Cycle

This week for reading we created a DLO showing the life cycle of a wasp. It starts off with the queen wasp laying eggs, then the eggs turn into larvael, then the larvae turn into pupae, then into a drone, queen wasp or a worker wasp. We were going to make an animation, but it was too hard so we changed it to a DLO.

Showing Respect

Early Maori Enterprise

Maori Enterprise started in N.Z. Europeans came to N.Z to trade. They ripped off the maori and stole their land. Maori  over the Europeans. Maori claimed their land and lived peacefully.

For inquiry we researching about maori enterprise. The maori were the first to trade with each other. They traded forest / in land items like food with the costal tribes which would sell kai moana. We learnt a trick with syllables with the 10 syllables scentences. We were to write our information that we researched in 5 scentences.
