For maths we were doing maths word problems in division.
To solve a division problem follow these instruction.
First We did maths word problems. We split the story into 4 parts.
The first part is how much things we have. Example: I have 4 tennis balls.
The second part is how much groups your splitting it into. Example: I shared them between 2 people.
The third part is how much each person got. Example: Each person got 2 tennis balls.
The fourth part is the equation. Example: 4 ➗ 2 = 2.

For maori we translated the maori words into the english words.
First we were given a list of maori words. Then we had to translate them into the english words. After that we had to highlight the words that we got correct.
Next we had to do an activity where we had to find out the maori meaning on the card. We also used the maori dictionary to help us find the meaning.
For reading we were doing skimming and scanning
Scanning is looking through the book for keywords and key question.
My book was called Why do bears go fishing. It was created by Miles Kelly. It was a non fiction. This book was about bears. One of the three facts I found out was that brown bears can charge upto 50 kilometers. But the main topic was bears fishing. The most interesting thing that I learnt about the book is that the sun bear has the longest tongue out of all bears.
