Our Memoirs

We Have lately been looking at memoirs and even made some of our own inspired by James K Baxter, we also borrowed some of his structure like the start the 5 nouns the 5 verbs and the ending. Here is my one.

The campsite was usual enough ;
it had a playground, a creek, a beach a kitchen and even a campsite shop. My sister, my friends and I did what girls do - swam in the clear sea, ran madly through the maze of tents, helped in the kitchen, roasted marshmallows on the beach, snuck out to watch the stars  
Doing nothing important

Sensational STRAND and Statistics


In our Early Level 4 STRAND group
over the last few sessions we have been
looking at investigations and even done
some of our own. The first investigation
was to find out which sport was the most
popular in our class, the second one was
to discover which was the most popular
M&M colour which was really fun
because we used real M&Ms. I learnt that
pie charts are used to show percentages.
