This week I have learnt . . .
Maths – How to find the surface area of any shape. All you have to do is find the area of each of the faces and add them together. I also can find the area of cylinders by finding the area of the top circle then times that by the length.
English – We worked on sentences. We had a list of sentences that either didn’t make sense or didn’t have the right punctuation. We had to edit them so they were right. I found this kind of hard but learnt a lot.
Writing – We are still working on argument writing. At the moment we are writing about the ban of smoking in New Zealand Prisons. I have just finished my draft but I have a lot of editing to do.
Goals . . .
• To make all of my sentences in my discussion argument make sense. I will have to spend a lot of time editing carefully and I will need to punctuate my work properly. • To win a game in Inter Intermediate basketball. This is next Tuesday until then I will need to practice lots.
