Explanation - Analogue Clock

Analogue Time

How can we understand time on an analogue clock? Well analogue clock can contain many parts. These parts can be on a clock or a watch but now we need to get a good explanation to answer the question “How can we understand time on an analogue clock?”

 First you need to learn about the face on a watch or a clock. What the face is it is the front of the clock or on a watch and it has the numerals, in other words, numbers on it and the hands. The face for the analogue can be small or big and that's because it can be on a clock or a watch. 

 Next I will be guiding you through why we have the hands on a clock or a watch. The reason why we have a short hand, a long hand and a second hand is because it is showing us if it is past or to. Now I am going to talk about numerals. 

The numerals on a clock or watch is the numbers to tell you the time. For example 9:15 but people wonder how you can tell the time if it's a two digit number? You can see that when the hand goes past the one digit number than you know it becomes a two digit number like how three becomes fifteen. 

Now you can have a good explanation on why it is easy to tell the time for an analogue clock.

For writing my group has been working on a explanation about an analogue clock. What we got to do was explain how you can tell time on an analogue clock. What I did was explain the three parts that is on a watch or a clock.What I really like about this explanation is that it gives you heaps of detail.

How Does WiFi Work

How Does WIFI Work

WiFi contains many things. It can contains codes, light and call waves but you can’t see the light because WiFi is a type of light. Now let’s go on the journey and learn about WiFi.

Light can be used for many things but things can be as the same as light. People can be wondering where is the light for WiFi. Well WiFi is a type of light and how it is a type of light is because the light comes from the call waves and connects it with the WiFi.

People sometimes wonder what are digital waves for? Or How can we use call waves?. Well digital waves are not waves they are actually binary codes being sent to your device.

How do codes work?. Well people think that codes are only for people who hack but they our false. So now we must find out how codes can work for peoples WiFi. How codes work is they are connected to a cable than connected to the radio waves than the codes go into your WiFi and that’s when the WiFi becomes the light.

See WiFi can contain many things. It doesn't just let you go on YouTube or Facebook. It can contain much more. Now it is the end of learning extra information about WiFi.
The subject that we have been working on is writing. What I did for writing is I got to write a explanation about the internet in other words WIFI. What we did was we got to explain what WIFI is all about. What an explanation is that it explains what the title is about and it gives you heaps of detail. What I really like about my explanation is that I got to write a explanation on how WIFI works and that it is not just something you go on to watch YouTube or play games.

Chinese New Year Explanation

Chinese New Year is special to the Chinese culture because everyone comes
together to celebrate and spend time with each other. Each year is named
after an animal.This year is the year of the dog. The dog represents
responsibility and seriousness.  


Chinese New Year is when all the families come together as one. They make
egg rolls, shrimp and noodles. In China the egg rolls represent the bars of
gold, the shrimp represent the happiness and the noodles represent long life
(if the noodle is long that means you will have a long life but if you cut it
you will have a short life). During this festival people give
Hong Bao to children and unmarried adults. In this red envelope there is
money to symbolize good luck and wealth.


People around the world celebrate Chinese New Year on the first
new moon of the year (which lasts for 15 days). On the last day they
light their lanterns to remember the ones who have passed on and to keep the
bad spirits away.


Each year we celebrate one of the 12 animals of the Chinese New Year.
There are 12 animals because the Jade Emperor didn’t know which animal to
choose so he set a race to see which order the years would be celebrated in.
This year we’re going to be celebrating the year of the earth dog. If there is a
person born in 2018 he/she might have the personality of an earth
dog, eg: would be responsible and serious.   


Chinese New Year brings people together. They decorate their houses in red
and gold, light fires, let of fireworks and wear red to continue to keep Nian,
the monster away.

Our learning today is about the Chinese New Year and how this festival is celebrated. We worked with a partner to write notes and then use those notes to write an explanation. Viva and I were worked together to do this task collaboratively. We used a new word Mrs Anderson taught us to help us plan our writing and the word was TIIC. What the word stands for is title, introduction, information and conclusion. What I really like about this is that I got to learn about information that I never knew about Chinese New Year and i now know why people wear the colour red, use fireworks and bang the drum to make loud noises during this time.

Morning Routine - Explanation



  • What I do in the morning.
  • What time I usually finish doing my thing .
  • What’s my favourite thing to do in the morning.

Morning Explanation
Sunrises and my eyes start to open. I feel a warm embrace by the sunlight shining up over me.



Everyday I have a morning routine. In my morning routine:
  • I wake up.
  • I watch t.v.
  • I get into the shower.
  • I get change.
  • I pack my bag with I need to bring to school.
  • Than I walk to school.

When I finish doing all the important things I check the time so I can rush or I can take my time. When I get ready for school I always check the time for each thing I will have to do.

My favourite thing to do when I always get ready is when I get changed for school because I know what I need and what I need to put on.

Now the sunset is down and my eyes are closing before themselves and my morning routine is down and now I can go to school and learn new things.

  
Our learning yesterday was about an explanation that I made on a Google Doc about what I do in the morning. On the top I have three sentences that is giving away a bit of my three paragraphs. What I really like about this Google Doc is that It has information about what I do in the morning and because it is an explanation. If you do not know what a explanation it is when you explain the subject that is your title in a introduction,three paragraphs and a conclusion you can also use onomatopoeia or metaphor and more.

Explanation - How children learn at school?

How children learn at school?

Why is it important to talk in class? The reason why we talk in class is so we can take risks and try new things.

It is important to listen in class so you know what you're learning about. And we can also explore new things so that we know what is the right thing and what is the wrong thing to do.

It is important for the juniors to follow there role model in school. So that we can learn from each other and we can give feedback to the juniors if they want feedback.

If you don't understand anything you should ask a question to your friend or a teacher. The reason why it is good to ask questions is so people can know what you think and so you can learn from other people.

The reason why we should learn at school is so we can learn new skills and use are ability to think.

Today we got to finished of our explanation about How children learn at school?. The person who I have been working with is Sakae and Sakae and I have done a list of words we should do in are explanation and we have tried to look for simple but powerful words e.g ability or skills.
