Bronze Statistics Wed

Kia ora Viewers,
Today for maths on the first to pages it said, "How many tally marks do these show? Write the numeral in the red box". It means count how many tally marks there are and write it in the red box. On the other too pages it says,"Draw the tally marks for each of the numbers in the redbox - duplicate the tally". This means, read the numbers in the red box then use the tally marks on the top right to make the number.
Hope you like my maths.
Please leave a positive comment.

Titanic Sinking Animation


We love using google products in interesting ways to share our learning. We can use the polyline tool in google slides to create colourful illustrations to share our learning. We are then able to put these illustrations together to create short animations. In a topic on the Titanic, we had to create a google slides animation to tell the story of the Titanic’s sinking. You can check out our animations to see how we each added our own twist to our finished product. Here is a clip of my Titanic animation, which you can find on my blog.
