This week I have been doing a Matariki activity I am doing drama and mural it is such fun. The hard part was the mural because I got a job to draw Rangi and he was very hard to draw, The easy part was drawing the evil 7 sisters, Well one of the evil 7 sisters they where all so easy but I just had to draw one of them, Because we all had to decorate a diamond but I drew a 3D star, And one of the evil 7 sisters and then, We all went to read a book about 7 happy brothers and 7 evil sisters but they where very beautiful so the brothers fell in love with the 7 sisters, But one of the brothers and his name was Mitai he saw the evil in side the sisters and he new they were evil from start, And they made Mitai brother starve to death the sister would not eat any thing but sea food so they made Mitais brother go out and get them kai moana, And the brothers of Mitai would not get nothing but one night the brothers of Mitai saw that their wife were gone mitai sent the sisters to the sky and Rangi saw they were very beautiful, He thought he would keep them up in the sky and they became the 7 sisters of matariki.

This week I was reading a book and the name of the book was down the drain. There are three kids and they are saving the sea animals by picking up all the rubbish in the center of Petone town they pick it up because it go´s down the drain and into the sea. They hoked a net onto the lid of the drain and now the only thing that will be going down the drain is water because the net catches the rubbish. Now the sea animals will be safe.

hills and daills

This week I have been learning to use integers.

Integers are negative numbers.

The strategy I learnt is using hills and dales.
Hills are at the top and they are the positive numbers.
Dales are at the bottom and they are negative numbers.

Using the hills and dales strategy makes it easier to learn how to work with negative numbers.

See the example.
