Dojo chapter three:the power of yet

In this chapter of class dojo Katie didn't understand a volcano project in science but was to shy to ask for help. Then mojo came and said " hey Katie guess what I couldn't do my project so I asked Bruno for help and now we made a great big volcano. Katie asked if he was shy but he said no all He did was think I could not do it YET. After the video was over Mrs Varcoe asked us what the video means by saying I thought I could not do it YET? 
Here are our thoughts

The impossible question

We didn't know what number it was so we just picked 4,8 and 12 and we got to work and found out that 4+8+12=24 and we could devide that into 4 groups and that would add up to 6 so we found out that the smallest table can seat 4 people and the middle table can seat 8 people and the biggest table can seat 12 people.  It was hard working together but we aventually got the answer.  We also found that answer because the text said that the biggest table could seat 3 times the amount of the smallest table and 4 times  3=12 .  

Here's the link to the website that has the problem and the suggested solution.

Basic facts

Today we had a different kind of basic facts. It was a activity when there are four basic numbers( e.g 3 5 2 6) that you have to add,subtract, divide, or multiplie to reach a 2 digit number. Today's 2 digit number was 36. We had about 7 ways to work it out! 
Our teacher was soo proud at us!!!

Web conference with room 1

Today we did a web conference (Skype) with room 1. We had a  really good first go but we we're a bit nervous. All of us worked together as a team and as a familly. The jobs were writers, reaserchers, talkers, note takers. When room1 gives us a question the reaserchers check their books for information and gives it to the writers who make it into pharagraphs. We all did great! That was fun.

Show not tell sentences 😰 😱

We are showing you Rana and Thao's show not tell sentences. Try and guess both Thao and  Ranas emtions. We were learning about inferring. So we wrote our own sentences to get our readers to make and inference.


My Heart was racing like a chettah.It felt like its inside my heart pounding extreamly hard.I felt butterfly's pulling a huge knot inside my stomach my eyes are wide open. By Thao

As I walked through the dark spooky alleyway at night I saw skeletons hanging from the roof tops and dead birds on the floor. I could  hear pure black crows squeaking and funeral music in the backround. By Rana

My partnership homework

In the weekend my family and I did an I movie trailer for my partnership homework.  We spent all Sunday doing this but I had so much fun filming it and I wonder how long it would take to do an I movie? I know that it seems short but it took a long time . I hope you enjoy it and please post  a comment with your name on it if you like it. By Kirstin

Dojo chapter 2:The magic of mistakes

Ms Varcoe showed us another dojo chapter and this is what we thought.It was about mistakes and if you make a mistakes just keep tring and don't give up.When you fail you'll get the hang of mistakes,because the more mistakes you do the better you get at the ting your doing.These ideas are what we thought.






Create Your Own Monster

Hey Room 2, here is the order form for the ClassDojo monsters competition that we are entering. Remember, you NEED to show your design process - that means you need to be writing down what you like about your design and what you want to improve before you move on to the next design. This will help the judges decide if you have really thought about your monster! You also need to colour it in, so if you need to come in early and use the colouring pencils, go for it! 

This is due back to me on the WEDNESDAY the 9th. If you bring it to me by then, I will send it off in a pack to the judges!!

Good luck, don't forget to get creative, but also to keep it simple enough to be made into an animation easily!

Go Noodle is about a game for exercising, it's a bit like just dance but animated. You get to choose a monster and give them muscles and they'll be taller it only happens when you do 10 Go Noodles.On the 1st of March we maxed our first monster flappy tucker. We do running, dancing, brain teasers, and exercises. It's fun!

Dojo chapter 1:A secret about the brain.

We watched a video about a little monster called Mojo. He was stuck on a math equation. The video about your brain is a muscle and the more you learn the stronger it gets. We learnt that not everyone can be smart but it is possible that everyone can be smart. Also we learnt that if you give up you might not get what it means or might not know you might not achieve an thing and if you don't give you might achieve something. Here is our brain storm about dojo chapter 1 as well as the video we watched!

Kirstin's Show Not Tell Sentences - CHALLENGE

1. I am jumping on my bed , a smile on my face, almost crying I keep jumping up and down on my bed,
2. my eyes are not focused I flopped onto my bed , head aching, heart beating slowly inside my chest.
3. mouth open , eyes wide, crying a little , smiling faces all around me and yet I still do not move,an untrusting look on my face 
4. GO AWAY! I shouted in my bedroom to my sisters as they approached my bedroom door , my fists were clenched tightly together my eyes red, my face as read as the velvet sunset that strikes the sky every evening like lightning. 
these are my show  not tell sentinces for you to gues what the emotion they are feeling right now and if you do then tell  me  on the coments below.
