Walt: writing introductions that orientate and hook in our audience.

First try: 
This term for trade and enterprise Team 4 are making products to sell and earn Pt’s and pieces. In the end we can use our Pt’s and pieces to buy other people's products or use them for the auction. As will, we've got our own on line banking to see how much currents that we have been saving.

Do you know what we are learning about for trade and enterprise? Team 4 are making products to sell and earn Pt’s and pieces. In the end we can use our Pt’s and pieces to buy other people's products or use them for the auction, as well we've got our own on line banking to see how much currents that we are saving.

In the end we can use our Pt’s and pieces to buy other people's products or use them for the auction, as will we've got our own on line banking to see how much currents that we are saving. PT’s are hard to earn!



With facts

In the end we can use our Pt’s and pieces to buy other people's products or use them for the auction, as will we've got our own on line banking to see how much currents that we have been saving. 50 pieces is worth one dollar of a New Zealand coin.



This is my business partner. Me and Yvonne are going

Grass to Glass


Right after the warm milked comes out of the cows, so it doesn't go off, the milk is cooled. When the trucker comes and  collects the milk he measures it to see how much money he would get. They transport the milk to the milk factory.


So that we can make different types of milk like blue milk or even green milk, milk and cream are separated. The workers wear hair caps and gumboots so no hair or grem go into the milk. I’m glad that there wearing them because I don’t want to find something in my milk!

As the milk is boiling in the mechanics, bacteria is killed by pasteurising the milk.The milk is so clean even the sick people can drink it.The temper is 72 degrees celcius which can definitely burn my hand. Lucky for us nothing wrong with our milk.



 The last step is bottling the milk. Finally the milk is bottled, ready for you to drink.This completes the journey from grass to glass. Which milk would you like?
Walt: We are leaning to write about complex sentence and simple sentence.

Term 3 maths problem solving

WALT: multiply and divide whole numbers
Our tasks is to multiply and divide whole numbers. For example I got 76$ and I
share between Seini, Talita , Htethtet and me. How must would I have to give to
each one of us to make it equal. 4 x 11 = 44 and then 4 x 8 = 32 , altogether it
 the number will be 76$. 15 x 4 = 76. I will have to give them and me 15$ each.

Week 3 maths teacher lesson


For this week we learnt about add not subtract. We change a subtract 
question into a adding question. For example 5.43 - 3.56 =      If the 
tens is bigger then the other then you can change it into a adding 
answer.

Week 2 maths teacher lesson


We used add and subtract to solve our answer. We break down the numbers
 to make the wholes then the left over numbers. For example 2 .80 + 3. 97=
2+3= 5,  first you make the whole for the tens. So 80 + something equal 1
whole.So you take out the 20 to make 1 whole and the leaf over is 70. Then
you add the 77 and altogether you add 5 wholes + 1 wholes + 77= The answer
 is 6.77 .

Grass to Glass

Walt: Add detail to the ending of the sentences.
Cows eat 70 kilograms of grass a day, to keep them health and  produce milk for us to drink. To keep them alive they have to eat plenty of grass. In winter the farmer comes around to feed the cow with silage because the grass isn't growing.



Cows have four stomachs, compared to us who only have one stomach. These four stomach breaks down the grass  into to little pieces. When the cows eat the grass they burp it back up and then chew it again for one minute, It’s disgusting.




Milking happens twice a day, and it can’t be miss out or else the cows get really sick or be in pain. It take 7-8 minutes for the cows to be milked.They get milked in the morning or in the evening.


Now days milking machines do all the hard work, but in the olden days they use to milk the cows by their bare hands, Imagine doing that. The milking shed can be called a herringbone or a rotary.Do you know one cow gives 30 litres of milk a day?

WALT: add and subtract decimals
Our task is to add and subtract decimals. Starting from the beginning of this term
we've still been learning more about decimals. If you don't know what decimals
 are they are numbers between 1 and 0. For example .456 +. 578=  First you
add the hundredth, .400 + 500 = 900 and then add the tenth, .50 + .70 = 120
and then add the oneth,8 + 6 = 14.


The unbirthday birthday

Living on a farm

Growing up on a farm would be fun but can also be hard. We’ve been looking at dairy milk in New Zealand and machines that make milk.


The cows get milked in the milking shed, where they produce milk. The farmers produce milk from the cow's teats by placing cups on their teats. The truck comes and collect the milk and take them to the shop to sell. That were your buy you milk!!

Imagine riding on a horse to school, that would be fun. We don’t really get the chance to ride horses in the city, so it would be cool to learn how to ride a horse on a farm. I would like to jump on a horse and ride it.


Why wasn’t I born in the country? After school there would be so many things to do like feeding calves, chickens and pigs, and riding bikes and horses. I think country kids are very lucky!


                     Walt: We are learning to write complex sentence and use detail in our writing.
