Chocolate Fractions ( DMIC Problem )

This week we did a DMIC lesson on Fractions. Firstly we had to think deeply about what the Maths problem is asking us and what the story is about. Once that was finished we went into our Maths Book to figure out what the answer could be. We were quite confused on what the main question was but our friend Marika helped us by understanding the question and that was the main point in the problem. Everything about the question and strategy is in the poster above. I created the poster above with Zaeeda. Enjoy!

Lamb to the Slaughter

Walt: identify and evaluate the use of irony in a text



Task Description

This week's short story is Lamb to the Slaughter by a very famous author, Roald Dahl. We had to do an analysis of this story. We mainly foccused on the types of Irony that was used in this text. We had to complete a Irony chart. You can check out my Review on this book in the presentation above. We also had to create a Character Map of Mary Maloney which is the main character for the short story we are learning. You can check out all of this up in the Slideshow!

A Way Of Talking - Reading work

Walt: think critically about an author's style



Task Description

This week's reading task was to read a short story and think very hard about how the author has written it. The short story we read was very hard to understand because it didn't give us much information because we had to analyse and pull out info to get a full conclusion. This helped me to get better at this skill which is analysing and getting information from a sentence or two. You can check out above to see what I am talking about!

For my Review I talked about the text I read, which is 'A way of talking'! I wrote a summary of the story, wrote about my thoughts, favourite parts in the story. Also what age I recommend to read the short story. That is also up in the presentation!

My create task was to imagine that we are Rose, who is a character from the story and describe how she is feeling and what she is thinking, when she hears Jane's remark. Check that up in the Presentation and anything else.
