The scary sound

It was a cold and dark night . There lived a boy named  Jack. Jack said, “to his  mum did you hear that scary sound"Jack rushed down the  stairs  to see what made that sound.

Then Jack hurried up stairs to his mum and said,”  mum I'm so scared can I sleep with you to night, mum said, “yes”.

Later on that night Jack heard the same sound he heard before he woke up his mum  if they could go down stairs to see what made the same sound so they ran down stairs as fast as a racing car.His mum said to jack”No it’s not a scary sound it’s just a man cutting a  tree down.Oh! Jack said to himself.

A little while later Mum said to Jack,” “next time you hear something you have to just look out the window to see what makes a scary sound like that”. Do not be afraid.

THE END!

Our wonderful soccer session 3

WALT: We are learning how to write a recount using similes and direct speech

It was a cold and windy morning and room 10 had  a soccer session. For our warm up, we had a game of octopus. Everyone was excited and  feeling enthusiastic about our game. Then Ben said “that we are going to have a mini soccer  tournament’’.  I kicked the ball as hard as a rock then I ran as fast as a cheater to get the ball into the goal.  We had a lovely and enjoyable  tournament.  At the end we were  thanking our coach.

Finding the Perimeter of 2D shapes

WALT find the Perimeter of 2D shapes

Formulae:

Perimeter of a Square = side + side + side + side or 4 x side

Example: The perimeter of a square of side  5cm = 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 20 cm or 4 x 5 = 20 cm

Find the perimeter of the following squares:

The perimeter of a square of side  10cm =  40cm  

The perimeter of a square of side  25cm = 100cm

The perimeter of a square of side  5m =20m

The perimeter of a square of side  50m =200m

The perimeter of a square of side  1km =400km

Perimeter of a Rectangle = length + width + length + width or 2 x l + 2 x w

Example: The perimeter of a rectangle whose length is 6cm and width is 4cm = 6 + 4 + 6 + 4 = 20 cm or 2 x 6 + 2 x 4= 12 + 8 = 20 cm

Find the perimeter of the following rectangles whose lengths and widths are given below:

Rectangle 1 - length is 8cm and width is 5cm

Perimeter = 26cm

Rectangle 2 - length is 10cm and width is 7cm

Perimeter = 34cm

Rectangle 3 - length is 8m and width is 6m

Perimeter = 28cm

Rectangle 4 - length is 16m and width is 10m

Perimeter = 52m

Rectangle 5 - length is 4km and width is 2km

Perimeter = 12 km

Evaluation: Today I learnt to find the Perimeter of

2D shapes

Today I was reading on sunshine online and I was reading on level 15.

This story is about a boy who was sick and he kept on changing channels.

His Mother told him if you keep on changing the channels the characters
