In class, we learned a new strategy called Doubling and halving
When you do this strategy you have to think about how can you make it easier
5 x 48 = 240
10 x 24 =240
I doubled the 5 to become 10 then I halved 48 to become 24 and that's how I got my answer.
6 x 3.5 = 21
3 x 7 =21
For example:
I doubled the 3.5 to become 7 then I halved the 6 to become 3 and that's how I got my answer.
Write a poetry blog post
In class, I learned about limerick poems. They have usually humorous poems.
Here is an example poem we look at in class…
The Boy Bart
There once was a boy called Bart
He loved to fart
He had no friends
Because he always defends
That was the boy Bart
The Girl Zoe
I once met a girl named Zoe
She met a boy named Joey
They fell in love
And saw a dove
That's the girl Zoe
The Apprentice fairy
I once met an apprentice from Keri
She was training to be a fairy
But one day she got a fright
She realized she was afraid of heights
That was the apprentice from Keri.
