Cry of the Taniwha Prejudice Example


My Reflection-
I was learning how to make a prejudice example about a character from the book Cry of the Taniwha.
We had to identify their personalities, how they behave and their characteristics.  I found this easy because I could brainstorm ideas quickly and I could understand the map I used.
 I think my next step is to put more effort into coming up with ideas and think about the character more in-depth.

adding in parts strategy





My Reflection-
I have been learning to solve addition problems using the adding in parts strategy.  I found adding the tidy numbers easy, rather than trying add without rounding up.  I think my next step is to working larger numbers like 389 + 491.

My Volcano Landscape



My Reflection- I found the drag and the sponge painting on my volcano landscape easy but the card printing hard.  My next step is to concentrate more on the card printing part of my painting. 

My Speech



My Reflection- We have been learning to write an effective speech. I found writing my speech easy because I had the information I needed and I was able to have three ideas and turn them into paragraphs and add a hook to the introduction. My next step is to make my speech longer.
