Let's let MukAah try to stump us with this mathematical puzzle.
Add a comment if you think you can solve it...
So we had a question today, in room 1 maths and it was a (crack the code question). The question was really hard but some people got it quickly, it took me a while to get it but in the end it was a fun thing to do and we all enjoyed it.
See if you can do it!
125207 is “hi”
031993121212 is “dude”
then what is 799717777010909230151693122001983
Good Luck!

WHERE I’M FROM POEM
I’m from dressing up, from design
and fashion.
I am from the heart up in the tree it looks like
bird feathers.
I am from the vegetable and fruit garden at the back of the yard.
And I am from the washing line that spins round and round.
I am from lolly pops and bubble gum.
From playing basket ball and the soccer.
I am from playing with dolls and beach toys
to watching Sesame Street
Saying ‘see you later alligator!’
Where I come into my family I am the last
and only leaf that grows on our family tree.

That Was Summer
Remember that time when you were in the ocean, your legs stinging as a huge wave came
toppling over you?
Or when you were sitting on the boiling hot sand as you smelt the salty air

Cultural Parade
-->
Culture Parade
On
culture day I was wearing a beautiful dress called” Gagra”. I was really shy
because lots of people were looking at me, I was feeling scared too. I was
especially bashful because I was doing a dance called Bharatanatyam on the
stage. Two girls called Raksha and Debeya were actually doing the dance with me.
Mr Campbell asked us ’’you three girls, what are you going to do today on the
stage?” We informed “us three are going a dance called bharatanatyam ’’. Then
we told him our names ’’Mounika , Raksha, and
Debeya’’. Mr Campbell asked us ’’do you have a USB so we can put the
music on for you when you dance ’’. When we started the dance, I was feeling so
nervous. Everybody was looking at us, we were feeling so scared. When we
finished the dance everybody was saying to us ’’ we liked the dance and your
pretty clothes ’’. When we finished the whole parade. I was feeling a bit nervous
because lot of people they were asking about the dance.

Where TekPan is From
Where I’m From Poem
I am from body-less dolls.
from Charlie and the chocolate Factory tasting all the chocolate in the Factory.
I am from painting, splashing all the colours in my mouth, it tasted like I was having nutella with water.
I am from basketball with sweaty hand bands.
It smells like I was at somebody's armpits.
I am from Dora the explorer, I got tired from exploring for other stuff.
I am from clue do, figuring out who is the murderer.
I am from gummie bears and thongs.
I am from “OMG” and “LOL”.
I am from Beyonce singing so loud I have to block my ears.
From dentists with all the pointy tools going in my mouth.
I am from scarf, wrapping it around me until I'm covered up.
Under my toys there are all of the old photos flying around.
letting me smile looking at the photos of my grandad.
I'm from the stalk getting bigger on the family tree.

YouMic's character description
During the beginning of term 1 Ms Stock spent some time working with us in Room 4. She taught us about character description in writing, especially how to activate nouns. This is YouMic's example:
He has short blondish hair that sticks up in the morning. His eyes are blue mints that roll around at me. He is not much taller than me. He wears a new Peachgrove uniform. But other than that just old clothes. His hot booming voice stinks of rotten egg. That's Jacob.
Such a talented writer.

Our Inquiry into Culture and Unique Knighton 4
During term 1 we have been focusing on the different cultures in our rooms.
We Tuned In - by doing a post box activity with different questions about cultures in R4. Here are our brainstorms
We Found Out - we practiced interviewing by hot seating our friend MukAah.
We split into 6 groups to represent some of cultures present in our class
We Sorted Out and Drew Conclusions- We decided to make documentaries about these cultures and interview our friend who is from there. To collect some of the information we discovered about these places we created Kidspiration mind maps. Here is one to look at:
We Went Further - We also completed an art activity that reminded us of the culture we were inquiring into. Here are some pics of the great ideas:
Some of us Took Action by participating in the Cultural parade at school - we looked amazing in our costumes...
We are going to take even more action by finishing our documentaries to share with our families...check out our blog over the next few weeks to see them
