Storybird Reflection

Last week we told talked about story so I and my classmates need to made a story. So Mr. Jabiz tell us to go to Storybird and choose a picture and make story with it. Also there will be lots of picture to help us made the story. It was a little bit easy to made the story because there is picture to help us, what to write with it. Mr. Jabiz ask us to create 15 slide for our story. I added text to each slide. It took use days to finish the story.


We added dialogue and adjective and edited verbs to past tense. It was a bit easy making the adding the dialogue and adjective and verbs to past tense. I show it to Mr. Jabiz and he also have to check if I write it wrong. When he finish checking and it is good. I took screenshots of each image for printing. The next step is to copied all the text to a word document. After that I print every slide for a large story board. I don't like doing the printing because we have to run over another building and get the picture there. I added sensory language= smell, sound, feelings, touch. It was hard to think what the person smell, sound, feelings, touch. After that I extended one or two conversation in our text.

Tessellation

In grade 4 I have been learning about tessellation. I made the tessellation using a piece of square grid paper. I made my tessellation in mathematics class. I was a Risk-taker when I tried to make a different pattern from my friends and chose the colors that I liked. . I was also an Inquirer when I wanted to know how to make a tessellation.

Mental math

In mathematics lesson every week I have mental math activities. In this activity I and my friends do some exercises on addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. It takes 5 minutes to do one of exercise. By doing this I learn to improve my counting skills faster. When time is up then I need to check the answers. Finally I write down my score.
