Writing

We wrote a persuasive speech about a topic. My topic is why people should stop littering. 

First I introduced myself and introduce my topic.

Next I said my POV witch means point of view and why I believe my argument. I also said my reasons.

After that we said our facts to help back up our topic. We also said our solution and our summary.

I enjoy writing my speech and saying my speech.

Maths

I learnt about fractions. I learnt fractions by cutting cups into different fractions like eighths and quarters.

The fraction I made first was quarters. First I cut a cup in half. Then I cut the halves into halves again which ended up with quarters.

The next fraction I made was eighths. First I cut a cup in halves. Then I cut the halves again which made quarters. Next I cut the quarters in halves which ended up with eight pieces.

I enjoyed making fractions out of cups.

LI. To define fractions.
