Learning to solve maths

This week we have been learning interesting math. At first I did not know how to do subtraction place value.
Ever since i've been working hard this week I knew how to subtract place value.Today I have improved in my place value.It js got easy and easy. I always focus on my work.After I finished my teacher checked my work if the questions were right.I was getting better and better. I think this can help me to improve in more subjects.

E-astle

Last week we did our e-astle.I did well in my e-astle and it made my report pretty good.
So I have to learn more math to improve more and more in math.
Now this week my uncle collected my report.

He was pretty happy with it because last year my report was so bad.But now it is very good.
I am happy of my self for doing better than before.

chemical

Chemical
What is carbon dioxide? Carbon dioxide is a colorless, odorless gas vital to plant life on earth.

When you grab a balloon you have to get a wire.If you light the wire it will burn and explode like a bomb.

Chemical is used safely. You need protection like glasses and gloves. It is real fun making stuff.

Chemicals can make a lot of things like tooth paste, grass,bombs.If you have a octopus there is a chemical the can make it come back alive.

Week 7 Math

MATHS

All this week from Monday to Friday we have been learning odd numbers & even numbers. We are learning math in groups.I am in group 2 and I need to learn math. Last year I was in group 1 and I have moved on because I have been working hard. I would like to do more math. Math is awesome and I hope people think math is awesome too. Subjects like math will get you into a high grade. This picture is odd numbers and even numbers. I think math will get me to group 3 if I am doing well. When you do math you always have to concentrate.

I think math is important because when you buy something you have to make sure you get the right change.
