Inferences By Liana

Task Description: Today I watched a video on what inferences are. Since I finished all my work I did some Monday must-do’s and one of the things I had to do was watch a video on inferences then write on my blog what and inference is. An inference is when you take a bunch of clues and make a guess based on those clues. Here is a example of an inference, lets say you ask your mum for a pet fish but she says no, after a little while you decide to check the shopping list to see what your mum is buying and on the list is say tank, coral and pebbles. you put all these clues together and then realize that you are getting a pet fish Thats a good example on making and inference. In shorter terms, and inference is when you make a guess. That is my short summary on what an inference is.

That Was Christmas By Liana

Task Description: Recently Team Tui has finished writing about our Christmas/Summer. We have all came up with different types of pieces about both Summer and Christmas. I had created a poem based on Christmas and what I have done. Even though Christmas was almost a normal day for me I tried to make as Christmasy as possible. Here is my writing! :))

 

That Was Christmas By Liana

 

Have you ever felt Christmas? 

Sure you have!

Remember the jolly feeling when Christmas came around

The excitement when opening up your presents, eager to see what you have been gifted.

The contentment when you unwrapped your presents

The warm fuzzy feeling when you drank hot chocolate in front of the fireplace.

That was Christmas

 

Have you ever heard Christmas?

Sure you have!

Remember listening to Christmas carols on repeat 

The sound of the rain pattering down 

The trees rustling as the wind forcefully sways

The sound of laughter echoing 

That was Christmas

 

Have you ever smelt Christmas?

Sure you have! 

Remember the smell of home cooked food?

The pleasant aroma filling up the room creating a different kind of warmth

The smell of spices and herbs mixed together

The smell of happiness

That was Christmas

 

Have you ever tasted Christmas?

Sure you have!

Remember the taste of warm home cooked food?

The flavors popping in your mouth 

Your taste buds opening as you process your food

The taste of love being the best flavor yet

That was Christmas

 

 

 

Shapes By Liana

Task Description: Recently Team Tui has been learning about shapes. When I say shapes I don’t mean learning about what a triangle is or what a circle is we all know about that stuff. We were learning about how many edges, sides, faces, angles and how many triangles can fit in the shapes we have selected.

You may be thinking, triangles? Well we learned that every shape with straight sides can fit triangles in them! Not only that but we learned that there is a way on telling how many triangles can fit in one shape! There is basically a rule, the rule is you have to two by the number of edges/sides. Not only that but there is also a way you can caculate the angles! Basically you just have to times the number of triangles by 180 degrees. Enough writing, Here is my work!!
