Public vs Private Information

Public information is sharing something on the whole internet and private information is sharing something to trusted people.

Information can be public or private.

Public information is sharing thing online that are appropriate and harmless.

Private information should be kept private because if private information is not kept it could be stolen or leaked online.

LI: to differentiate between public and private information.

Character Trait

Character Trait is using describeing words about the character. 

In the story the Highway Rat there are 3 character we can infer about.

For example: The duck was very clever when she told the highway rat the she had a sister that had treats in the cave.

The duck was clever because if she didn't tell the highway rat to go inside the cave he would've kept on stealing more of the villagers food.

The duck had a idea so she took the highway rat horse to bring back all of the villagers food.

Adjectives can tell you more then one word for example: Nice, kind, gentle, friendly

Character trait is important because it describes what that character does and what it acts like.

 

Multipication

Multipication is a fast way of using the same number many times. The two, five, and ten times tables are examples of multipication.

The two times tables are mulitplying two by a number of groups. 

The five times tables are mulitplying five by a number of groups.

The ten times tables are mulitplying ten by a number of groups.

The times tables are an easy way to remeber basic multipication equations. The next times tables to learn are the three, four, and six times tables.

Facts or opinions

This week I did a fact or opinions about the book highway rat.

First I wrote facts that happened in the book to 1 of the characters.

After I wrote opinions about the duck based on the facts.

Then I typed five adjectives to describe the traits of the character.

I enjoyed this because I learnt what adjectives are.

Multiplication & Times Tables

This week we did multiplication and times tables.

First my group took a big group of beans of a unknown amount.

Then we split them into small groups then we counted the number of groups.

After we used multiplication to figure out the unknown amount that is 45.

I enjoyed this because I learnt new times tables and learnt how group big numbers.
