Ako Whanau Kwok Week 8 Online Learning

We had lots of fun learning in week 8, here is a summary of what we did. In Maths, we learned about the order of operations following the BEDMAS rule. We also looked at what equivalent fractions are. In Reading, we learned about synthesizing - which means we combine ideas from two different texts to come to a new understanding about a topic. In Writing, we revisted the language techniques used to create effect in poetry, including personification, metaphor, simile, alliteration, onomatopoeia.
