Room 5L's Favourite Books

My Fruit Burst Investigation

Last week our Rich Task was sorting out a packet of Fruit Bursts. We were divided up into five groups. In my group I worked with.... I found out that there were more Wildberry sweets in the packet than any other flavour. There were 7 wild berry sweets in the packet. Strawberry had the smallest number of sweets in the packet.

Cultural Identity Google Map

This map shows the cultures and countries where we are from in Room 6. Most of the students were born in New Zealand but their parents and families are from Overseas countries. We used Google to plot in the countries. I learnt how to insert images and videos onto the map.

Popular pets in Room 5L

The Turtles were the most popular pet in Room 5L. They were popular because they have a hard shell and they have a nice pattern on their backs. Seventeen students chose turtles as their favourite pet. This was closely followed by dogs. 16 students chose dogs as their favourite pet. The least popular pet were birds because they fly away, they create mess through bird seed going on the floor and you cannot cuddle a bird. Only nine students chose birds as their favourite pet.

Forces in Motion

Hurray! as I shouted when I went down the slide, my brother wanted me to go down the slide again but I didn't want to because  when I went down I bumped my head on to the wall because my brother pushed me when i was in front of him.But then I was still happy because  when  I was feeling alright  I wanted to go on the slide again.But then I said to my mum can we just stay for 30 seconds please  and she said yes because I was
