Learning to summarise by skimming and scanning.


Wednesday 26 March

The main characters are Rita, the bus driver, Charlie, Mike, Sam. Sam wanted the rabbit and chickens and mice. But Sam got the skeleton instead. But Sam didn't mind that Sam got the skeleton. Then his bus stopped and let Sam out of the bus and the skeleton then the bus driver drove away. 

My picture shows the skeleton on the bus. 

I found this activity a little bit tricky because on the computer it's hard to write. My next step with summarising it to practice with harder books.

My Portrait.


I liked my portrait because I did lots of effort to make it.

Learning to skip count in fives.

I have been using mathletics to help me learn to skip count in fives.



At first I thought the answer was 26 but then I thought it was 30 because it goes 25 then 35 so it needed to be 30. 

I like mathletics because it's fun and it helps my learning because I can skip count and learn more basic facts. 


Using an interesting hook.
