Money Madness

We have been learning to:

• recognise and identify NZ coins and notes and their values
• make amounts by totalling coins and notes using tens and ones
• make amounts in different ways

Reflection:  I know how to add dollars and cents.  It was quite easy for me for make the amounts.   Esmond 21.11.17

Identifying the main ideas in a story

Our Dragonflies reading group has been learning to identify the main ideas in a story and to identify the beginning, middle and end of a story.

Reflection:  I'm kind of good at doing it.  Talking out loud is hard for me in the retelling.
Its kind of easy for me to think of it. I liked popplet so I could type my ideas in.
