Learner licenses

In room 26 we have a new system running called learner licenses. A learner licence determines where you get to work around the class or school.


The highest rank that is hard to achieve is called Mobile Learner. this means that you get to work anywhere in the school as long as you tell the teacher and you don't interrupt other classes learning.




The next rank is called independent learner license this means you get to work anywhere you want in the class. This is where I'm at in the licenses.





The next rank is called Regulated license meaning you can work where you want but the teacher can move you if needed.



The final rank is called teacher this means the teacher chooses where you work.


My next goal is to become a mobile learner license.

Maths

WALT use Pythagoras to solve the length         of the hypotenuse. 

For the past weeks in math my group has been learning how to do Pythagoras to solve the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is the longest side of a right-angle triangle. There was a formula that we used so we could be more successful.       

Reading

WALT identify the authors purpose and question intent.

This week in reading my group read a story called Adrian Heke. First we did a prediction activity then we read the story. Afterwards we did a vocabulary sheet. Then we did a summary sheet. Then we had a group session. Afterwards we did a follow up activity. Shortly after we did the mustdos.

              IALT identify the authors purpose and question intent.

This week  my reading group had to make a prediction on a book called watch for edge slumps then we had to complete complete a vocab sheet before completing a summary sheet of our choice afterwards we had a teacher session.As a follow up activity we had to make up a silly story about a road sign.

Writing term 2

My goal for writing is structure and language. This week in writing we have been focusing on our career's writing. our carers writing is when we identify a career that we like and write an explanation about it.I chose physio because my dad thinks I'm good at it and I enjoy helping people feel better so for me it was an easy(ish) choice. My next step is to use a wider variety of punctuation because at the moment I tend to stick to Fullstops and Question Marks.
