Moriori- Information Web

Task Description: For this task we had to reread our book and then write a Information web about the book the book I am reading is Moriori A story of Survival. We had to put a heading or main topic of each one and just give a little bit of information and then after that we put it on our blog with a Task description and Labels and also a Title.

Moriori- A Story Of Survival

1. What is the Moriori word for the Chatham Islands?

The name Moriori word for Chatham Island is Rekohu

2. Explain the story of Nunuku’s Covenant..

There  was a Chief called Nunuku’s Covenant and he forbade warfare and killing and ordered his people to live together in peace. They obeyed his rules and they only were fighting with only wooden staffs, called Tupuari until first blood was drawn. Then the fighting had to stop and the honour was considered satisfied. Then the Moriori followed the Law of Nunuku for many centuries.

3. Why did the author want to share this story?

I think the author wanted to share this story because it showed that the Moriori people were good because they listened to their Chief and followed his Law’s. They also welcomed the British people that came to the Chatham Island and they welcome them even though they looked strange.

Task Description: For this task we did learning at home. Most of Room 11 Literacy class when on Hangouts with out teacher Ms Tapuke and just went over what text each group was reading. Then after that we all left the Hangout group and started our work and our teacher said to post each slide we have finished and put it on our blog so here is my first blog post of doing Home Work at home. This task is about explain what the question is about and we have to answer it. When we finish we have to post it on our blog.

Multiplication Magic #1

Multiplication Magic #1

We are learning to use place value to solve multiplication problems using whole numbers.

A factor is the multiple’s that equal 24 or 30

Factors of 24: 24,1,6,4,2,12,8,3,

Factors of 30: 10,3,30,1,6,5,

A Multiple is any multiple of that number

Multiples of 6:     ,60,66,72,12,18,24,30,42,48,54,

42 = 16, 4 x 4=16

√49 =7, 7 x 7=49

25 x 8 = 200

20 x 8= 160

5 x 8 =40

160+40=200

25 x 15 = 375

20 x 15 =300

5 x 15 =75

  

  Show your working under each problem:

1.  Mrs Ilaoa orders 5 boxes of bats. If each box contains 7 bats, how many
bats are there altogether?

5x 7=15

2. She then orders 23 boxes of cones. If each box contains 8 cones,
how many cones are there altogether? 

23 x 8=

20x 8=160, 3 x 8= 24 

160+24=184

3.Mrs Tele’a orders pencils for team 5. She orders 25 boxes of 12 pencils.
How many pencils are there altogether?

25 x 12=

20x10=200, 2 x 2=4

5x10=50, 5 x 2=10

200+4=204, 50+10=60

204+60=264

4. Chance has brought some lollies in to share with the class for her birthday.
She has brought 14 packets which contain 12 lollies each. How many lollies are there altogether?

14 x 12=

10x10=100, 10 x 2=20

 4 x 10=40. 4 x 2=8

100+20=120, 40+8=48

120+48=168

5. Team 5 are working out how much money they can make from their fundraising
at the garage sale.

If they sell 27 plates of food for $12 each, how much money will they make?

27 x 12=

20x10=200, 20 x 2=40

7 x 10=70, 7 x 2=14

200+40=240, 70+14=84

240+84=324

If they sell 45 cakes for $15 each, how much money will they make?

45x 15=

40 x 10=400, 40x 5=200

5x10=50, 5 x 5=25

200+400=600, 50+25=75

600+75=675

6. Room 4 is 12m long and 11m wide. What is the area of the room?

12 x 11=

10x10=100

10x1=10

2x10=20

2x1=2

100+10=110

20+2=22

110+22=132

Serious Subtraction #1

 WALT: Use our knowledge of place value to solve subtraction problems

Serious Subtraction

We are learning to solve subtraction problems using whole and decimal numbers.

Times Table Practice:

3 x 3 = 9      5 x 5 =  25      8 x 7 =  56   12 x 10 = 120     4 x 6 = 24  5 x 7 = 35   2 x 4 = 8  3 x 8 =24   9 x 8 =72  4 x 7 = 28 9 x 7 = 63

345 + 385 = 730

300+300=600 

40+80=120

5+5=10

600+120=720

720+10=730

847 + 126 =  973

800+100=900

40+20=60

7+6=13

900+60=960

960+13=973

674 + 586 = 1260

600+500=1100

70+80=150

4+6=10

1100+150=1250

1250+10=1260

Your sister gives you $125 to spend on lollies. If you spend $65 how much
money would you have left over?

$65+$60=$125

60+60=120

5+0=5

120+5=125 te answer is 60

She then gives you $234 more. How much money do you have now?

234+60=294

200+0=200

30+60=90

4+0=4

200+90=290, 290+4=294

Pt England school are buying new sports gear. There is $500 in the sports budget. 

They first purchase a basketball hoop for $50. How much money  is left?

$500-$50=$450

They then buy a net for $25.  How much do they have left?

$450-$25=425

450-20=430

0-5=5 , 430-5=425

Then they buy three tennis balls. Each ball costs $3. How much do they have left?

(3x3=9)

$425-9=416

400-0=400

25-9=16

400+16=416

Finally they buy a netball hoop which costs $100.  How much is left in the budget at the end?

$416-100= $316

400-100-300

10-0=10

6-0=6

300+10=310

310+6=$316 there is $316 dollers left in the budget!

Troy has $100 in his wallet. He spends $65.50 on a new PS4 game.

535+1=536.1

Zyla’s puppy is growing every month. He used to weigh 5.6 kg
but he now weighs 6.3. How much weight has he put on?

Letter to Ms Tapuke

WALT: Write for a specific purpose

Dear Ms Tapuke,

My name is Zamera. I’m 12 years old and a Year 8 student at Pt England school.
I am the second youngest out of my family. I have 1 younger brother and 2 older sisters.
My two older sister’s names are Sheales and Juliet and my younger brother’s name is Jeremiah,
my 2 older sisters go
to college and my younger brother comes to Pt England as well.
My Dad is Maori, Niuean and my Mum is Niuen and Cook Island.

I love playing Sports. I play T20 Cricket for Uni-(University Cricket Club),
I play Touch,Netball,Softball,Rugby,Tag,Volleyball and Cricket for Pt England School.
This Year in 2020, I'm going to be trying out Ki o Rahi for School.

My Favourite subject is Maths and Writing, I don’t really like Reading that much.
I like Writing because I get to write down my thoughts about something, what I imagine
and also write about anything. I also like Maths because I get to think about the questions
hard and when my brain starts to hurt then that means i’m learning something new.

At school I really like playing cards with my friends.
At morning tea me and my friends and some other people
like playing a game called Cheat, the way you play it is you have to have a partner and you also
have to have a signal, then the dealer gives each partner four cards each then the dealer also
put four cards on the table and you have to get the same four cards and when you get it then
you do your signal and your partner has to say your name and cheat. My teachers in Team 5
are really funny and really interesting. They give us hard work but even though it’s hard it
will help us with college work.

A fun fact about me is I like to cook, my Dad is the person
who taught me how to cook and also my Mum.But  Me and my Dad like cooking
homemade burgers with homemade patties and it’s delicious, we also like making spaghetti
bolognese and lots of other delicious things. Sometimes at home I cook dinner for my whole
family and then I don’t have to clean up afterwards. I really enjoy cooking!

 Yours Sincerely,

Zamera
