In week 6 for ALIM we learnt to subtract two-digit numbers that do not involve renaming.Like a example: 45-21 is the same as 4 tens-2 ten=20 and 5 ones-1ones=4=24. I hope that you will all learn something from it.

Edwina's Niue Flag.

This term Room10 is about to learn some culture's. For our culture we are learning about niue. We chose niue because in our class room there is a boy that is niue. It is fun to learn niue because  it is a great island and a good country. Room10 is still working and learning on it and they are just about to learn more and more about it. I hope that in someday you will learn different culture in your class room.

In week 5 for ALIM we learnt to add two-digit numbers where the sum of the ones digit is less than ten.
Like a example: 34+23 is the same as 3 groups of 10+2 groups of 10=50 and 4+7=7 so 50+7=57. It is a great strategists to help you learn your maths. I hope you enjoy it.

My name story.

My Name Story

Hi my name is Edwina F. My name was chosen on my dad’s side. I am named after my dad’s sister called Edwina. I asked my mum what my name means and she said it's a very nice seed that grows along the beach and the Tongan people use the seeds to make the Tongan oil. I was very lucky that I wasn’t going to be named after anyone because I really like my name a lot.

My name had to be called Edwina because my dad’s sister wasn’t named after anyone.  My sister Candice is named after my dad’s Aunty, my sister Angelica is named after my mum’s mum and Voni is named after my grandpa. I asked my mum why is Anglica named after her mum and she said because she named her. I am very excited because I have a great name and I really love it very, very, very much.

In week 4 for ALIM I learnt to subtract by splitting numbers into parts instead of counting on. For ALIM  I learnt that it will be very helpful because there are different strategist that you can use.
Like a example: 14-4=10-2=8 or 13-3=10-3=7

My soil report.

My soil report. Tuesday 3 April 2012

After studying soil for the last few weeks, We decided on question and the information we found out. Below are the question and the information we found out.

What is soil?

Soil is a mixture of sand, loam and clay that helps plants grow. Nutrients in the soil come from dead organic material such as dead bugs, dead leaves, roots and twigs and other organic material. Soil is the top layer of our Earth planet because if we lived without soil nothing would grow. Loam soil holds just the right amount of water and air to help plants grow.Did you know that! soil comes in different kind of rainbow rocks?

Why is soil important?

Soil is important because flowers, trees and plants need it so they can grow properly. Soil is very important for plants because they need the soil so they can stand straight. Soil is good for our Earth planet because if we lived without soil nothing will grow in our planet Earth.

Is soil a habitat?

Yes soil is a habitat because soil is a habitat for many species of insects and other invertebrates like beetles, ants, slugs, worms and cicadas.

How have people affected soil?

Humans affect soil by cutting down trees and grass that hold the soil altogether. This makes the soil get washed away when it rains. The pollutes the rivers and lakes and kills the fish and plants that live in them.
