Venn Diagram

This week for Miss White’s reading groups we learned about how to be able to compare and contrast two or/and three ideas.

What is comparing? Comparing is where your looking at the similarities and differences between ideas or stories. For example : Sing 2 is all about a singing and lorax is all about a sad story.

First, we had to discuss in a group what compare and contrast is. It is where you discuss the elements that are similar, while contrast discusses elements that are different. It’s also a type of two subjects by comparing them, contrasting them, or both.

Next, we had to watch two videos below and make a copy of the venn diagram. In the venn diagram we had to write down the similarities and differences between the two videos. The two videos were called pips and hope. In pips it talks about dogs training to help blind people. In hope it also talks about a turtle by itself and founds that the dad was died in the ocean.

I enjoyed doing this task. I did well at writing down what the two differences are in the two videos. I need to improve on adding more details. Have a good weekend.

 

Basic Facts Boxes

This week for maths I learned about Basic Facts Boxes.

Basic Facts Boxes is a type of Math game that you sort out the answers. For example: 1+1=2.

First, I had to figure out which one I want to do for math’s. The options were plus, minus, and multiplications. I picked minus because I was thinking that it is the best way to start off with. I also had to pick another option. The options were, random, and order. I picked order because I think the same as minus.

Next, I had to start off by figuring out the answers for the math’s. The minus was easy for me. For example: 20-1= 19, 19-1=18.

Lastly, I had to press check when I finished answering the math problem. For example: when you finish answering your problem of math’s you had to press check to see if you got some wrong, some correct.

I enjoyed learning about basic facts boxes. I did well at answering the problems or solving the problems. I need to improve on moving on to the multiplications.
