Kiwi Can

LI: To learn about consequences and how you get one.
Today for kiwi can we had to talk to eachother about what a consequences is. For our energizer we played little fish and big fish. To play someone starts off by saying little or big fish then if it is big fish then you have to make a big gap in your hands, that also means that little fish means making the gap in your hands smaller. The game that we played was called was blindspot. To play blind spot you need to have a blindfold and tie it around your head. Next one person in your group has to guide the person with the blindfold to get as much balls as they can to bring back to there group. I learnt by playing a game basedon our topic.

Fractions

LI: To learn the difference between fractions, Percentages and decimals.
Today for maths we had to figure out the difference between Fractions, Improper fractions and mixed number fractions. Fractions numerators are smaller than the denominator, also Improper fractions are the opposite so the numerator is higher than than the denominator. Mixed number fractions are different because they have a whole in it. I learnt by listening to my teacher and then use what I have learnt on my google drawing.

The last game we played was an actual rippa rugby game where you can't pass forward. the new skill we learnt was defending and to defend we had to stand in a line and move up in a group so it would be harder for the other team to get past because there is only one way through and it was through the wall so it would be easier to rip there tags off.
