NZ Identity: Parliament

As part of our New Zealand Identity unit we have been learning all about New Zealand Parliament.

Here is a link to the online modelling book for this unit if learning.

We have learned all about the different roles that people have in parliament.

Key roles in Parliament Activity

Some things that I have found interesting are:

• That there are three readings before a law can be made.
• That the opposition trys to disagrees with the goverment to make it seem like it is a bad idea.
• That there are 120 seats in parliament.

Standard Form, Rounding and Decimal Place Value.

In this maths group I found the second IXL activitie hard because hyou had to make sure you had the right amount of zeros infront or behind the number.
I found how you can make the bigger numbers smaller by writing it differently.

Identify the number of tenths, hundredths and thousandths in numbers up to three decimal places.

Here are some screen shots of my IXL activeites I did.

On Wednesday the heads and deputys went to student council and everyone else who got voted to be there classes representives. The meeting took place at 12:35 in the hall foyer set up in a circle with chairs.

This was about our 3rd meeting for term 4 and we started off by Anneke calling out each class to see if they were here.

Next we talked about an ice cream day that we are planning.

Then Mrs Trotter asked if we had the prices of the ice creams and asked if the year 4 and 5 students  had made posters to say that there was an ice cream day happening.

That was basically all we talked about until it was 12:50 which is when student council finishes
