Reflection on the learning of history this term
and our presentations today
|
Tara

This morning in
Middle S we did our PLT project about the European Settlement, Convicts and
aboriginals. We explained what their life was like and how they
travelled or made it to Australia. Also everybody's PLT was really cool and
interesting they had good information and used their voices well. I’m also
sort of proud of myself because honestly I think this was the best PLT I have
done because the other times I was shy but this time I had confidence and I
also had a lot of people come to my project. I’m happy I chose Bungaree he
had lots of rich information so I think that made my PLT a lot better. I
enjoyed my PLT and I think so did others. Other people's presentations looked
like they were set up differently to mine but still on the Google site wich
made it much more different and interesting. Good Job Middles!!!

This morning was
really fun we presented our P.L.T’s to show grownups and some of the other
classes and i did Pemulwuy. The project was about European settlement the
rich question was how stories of the past help us live in the present. I am
happy that i chose Pemulwuy because everyone wanted to see mine. I am really
proud of myself because i think i did the best P.L.T.

The PLTS were
really awesome. I worked really hard to read. Sometimes I had to stop reading
to people because I ran out of breath. Arthur Phillip was my person to study
for my PLT.
I saw others from
Middle S and Middle M. This was a fun day and I liked showing people my PLT
also as listening to other people’s PLTS.

Today was awesome to see people and it felt like
i was the teacher because i was teach people about William Buckley and it was
cool seeing all the scratch projects and some of them were different. it was
fun learning about different people and some scratch projects were funny and
interactive.
|
Luca

Today was hard
because I had to present my PLT and I was very tired after doing my PLT and
during this term I found it hard learning about history and now that I know
most of the names of the people from the past and It was hard cause at the
start I didn't find any information about George Barrington and that I had a
lot of fun doing the scratch project and the google my maps.
|
Sam
|
Today we Presented
our Australian History P.L.T.s. The person I chose was Matthew Flinders. I
really liked presenting to the rest of the school today and the parents
today. At the start of the day I was really nervous. I had made a few
mistakes in my scratch project and some punctuation was wrong. So after
someone had left I quickly fixed the mistakes I had noticed. Overall I learnt
a lot about Australian History!!!!!

Joseph

I think the PLT was
very fun and I enjoyed it a lot because we got to set the tables whatever way
we want and I got a load more people than last time .I also think this terms
subject was more interesting and more people came, but I noticed a lot of
people not very into it .

Layla

I thought it was
AMAZING I loved it. I loved all the different ideas that everyone put in
there google site the set up was great too it was great how some the parents
could come in and share our learning. I had lots of people come and want to
find out about my person, Esther Abrahams who was a convict on the First
Fleet and she tried to steal 25 pieces of lace and then was sentenced to
jail/gaol. I loved seeing all the other people’s presentations they were good
as well some of the presentations I liked was Bennelong, Barangaroo,
Charlotte Badger, Bungaree and Margaret Catchpole. For my Presentation I also
did little puppets of the action and did a map of her journey from London,
Rio de Janeiro, Cape town and then Sydney, the destination.

Tegan

I thought today was
really fun and enjoyable and I thought it went really well. I had lots
of people come to my presentation. I did mine on Mary Bryant, and I thought I
did a good job and got a lot of good and rich information about her.
I really enjoyed
listening to everyone else's sites, it was really fun and interesting to find
out different facts about these people.

Liana

Today we did our
plt i thought that i would not finish it on the day that we were meant to
show everyone our plt but we did so I’m not that worried anymore
because we don't have to do it again
and sometimes you got a lot of writing then you don't want to read anymore
then you get tired because lots of people come but some people like when
people come to you but I’m trying to say is it's hard when some people come
to you and you have to read a lot of writing that you wrote
|
Bianca

Today we did our
PLT’s and I enjoyed telling people what I learnt by doing the task that we
were assigned to do. I was a bit sad that my family couldn't come but a lot
of visitors form our school and even some parents came to mine. I sort of
felt like the teacher in a way because everyone was listening to me and
learning from my work. I did my PLT on Bennelong. I learnt a lot about him,
and enjoyed doing the PLT. I liked going to different classes to see what
they produced and it was good because, everyone that did the same person had
different information. I think that everyone learnt something doing this PLT
because I know that I did. Now I can share my learning with others to give
them some knowledge on who I did. Or someone else's person.

On the 19 of
September 2018 we did a European first Australia PLT on different people that
settled in Australia. I did George Bass because I love Tasmania and he
discovered it was an island with Matthew flinders. When we presented our PLT
my voice was croaky from telling 15 people about my work. I really enjoyed
doing it and I hope we do it again.
|
Kourosh

I liked it but too
much reading for me. I got very tired after. I’m also proud of myself that I
did that much work.

I really enjoyed
this year I really enjoyed this it was fun learning about Australian history
i lent a lot in my P.L.T am not looking forward to next team because Ms Scott
is the best teacher ever. I didn't even no my person lived on earth for my
plt i am so grateful that my would come because she had to go to work she
said she could only see mine but she saw one of my friends so i was grateful
for that. I had very many wonders this term. This term was a challenge i
enjoy challenges and this term told me what I love I love the book series we
are reading.

It was very fun
making this P.L.T because I learnt a lot of stuff. At home I felt very smart
because I did work at home. I felt that on the presentation day I had a lot
of people and I had to be really strict with saying stuff like when Captain
Cook got drowned and there was some more back storey to is.. !!!!IT WAS SO
AWESOME!!!
|
Harry
|
This P.L.T was very
fun and I learnt a lot of things and got a teacher’s point of view, it was
great how we all felt happy and got this done I learnt a lot about other people’s
people as well as my own (James Ruse) This terms P.L.T was fun.
|
Alessia
|
I had lots of fun
and I learnt a lot about father James Harold I had lots of people come
to mine and I learnt that father James Harold’s birthday was 1899 I didn't
think I could finish but I did it was so hard and fun at the same time .
|
Celia

I found it really
fun. My favourite part was the diorama, site and scratch project. At first
(before I presented it) I felt that I had the right amount of information but
then when I did present it I found that I had way too much because the people
that I presented it to, during when I was presenting it they would look at
the time and try and figure out a way to get out of listening to my PLT. But
I think that I have learnt a lot about Margaret Catchpole and I now know why
she is famous. I think I know what it was like back then and how hard it was.
I was so confused because all of the different websites that I went on all
had some different perspective of what they thought happened. I think I did
well in just in 3 weeks especially when I didn’t know who she was. It was
really fun and I think it was the most I’ve ever done in a PLT because
normally after I finish a PLT I hardly have anything to present and it is
really boring. Because I had a lot of information it was good that I could
explain it without looking at my text. I think a lot of people thought that
my map/diorama and my portrait was really creative. All in all I think I did
well and most people liked my presentation.

Abbey

I thought it was
really fun and I liked how not all the middle went at the different times so
everyone could look at each other P.L.T and how some people have the same
person but different info. Over the few weeks we had I have learnt a lot
about Charlotte badger and a lot of different other people. I think all of
the P.L.T are really good all the grade 3 and 4 worked really hard on all
there P.L.T and I think everyone worked really hard on them and I think this
P.L.T is the best one yet and I really liked it.

Learning about Volume and Capacity
Volume and Capacity Reflection
WHAT DID YOU NOTICE TODAY?
WHAT DID YOU GET BETTER AT WHILST DOING THE
EXPERIMENTS?
Name
|
Reflection
|
Sam
|
I really liked doing this today because it was an active activity and
it was something different rather than just playing with blocks, we were able
to experiment.
|
Tilly
|
Today we are doing volume and
capacity with cups and jugs and water. I got better at measuring things,
because I put them together.
|
Bianca
|
I enjoyed doing it because I learnt that you have to be careful of
what you estimate and that most of my measurements were in the hundreds and
if I measured in cups they were under ten.
|
Max.L
|
I enjoyed doing this lesson because it was not like a normal lesson it
was outside. The other thing i liked about the lesson was that we got to play
with water.
|
Joseph
|
I enjoyed doing volume and capacity
Today and that it was a fun way and
New way to do math. Even though it
Was a bit messy I still learnt lot, such as...
|
Tegan
|
I enjoyed it because I learned a lot
more about capacity and volume but I also found it fun (and wet)
|
Josh.D
|
I really liked the maths lesson where we had to measure containers
with water. I noticed that all the measurements were in the hundreds. I got
better at measuring capacity.
|
Alessia.M
|
I really liked it I measured a yogurt container. I learnt that
capacity was related to volume. It was really fun.
|
Layla
|
I really liked measuring with water because we were using real liquid
not like when you’re in yr 1 & 2 and you have to use imaginary water. It
was really fun and I really liked looking at all the different containers
especially the really small ones or really big ones. My favorite containers
would have been: the test tube, Ms Scotts blue cup and the yogurt tub. I
loved seeing all the different sizes of the cups such as the length, width,
height etc
|
Tara
|
I enjoyed doing the volume and
capacity lesson because it helps me with measuring because honestly I am not
the best, but once doing that it sort of helped to estimate the volume and
the water.
|
HARRY
|
I got better at measuring and not getting wet. I learnt a lot of
things I wrote down the containers name and estimated how much water it can
hold.
|
ALEXANDER
|
Today we learned about volume and
capacity. I got better at measuring liquids and using liters and ml. We used
containers and measuring jugs. I learned how much some containers can fit and
sometimes we had to use 2 Measuring jugs for 3 liter containers.
|
LUCA
|
I learnt how to measure capacity and volume and that I learnt and that
I noticed the difference between the capacities of all the different jugs I
measured.
|
Abbey!
|
I liked the part where it was very messy and I also learnt that 1000ml
= 1 litre. My book WAS SO WET!! That was the part I hated.
|
Eleanor
|
Today we were learning about volume and capacity. The class paired up
and measured things together my partner was tegan and the best part was
getting #WET!!!
|
Luke !!!!!!
|
It was very fun Ms Scott. I learnt
that 1,000ml is 1 litre and and I liked it a lot because all we do is do strategies
and I would prefer to go outside and do what we did today. And I improved
measuring more stuff and I know why scientists uses pencils, because if you
get it wet it will be the same unlike a pen):!!!!
|
Celia
|
It was fun only because it was easy!
I accidentally did it wrong but at least I did measuring but not informal.
Meh. I learnt how to measure things and I did not know how to do that before
and I thought it was going to be very hard but it isn’t because it was easy
that isn’t the only reason I liked it I liked how I learnt it easily and now
I can finish the homework task about measuring! YAY! I found that none of the
things I measured went up to 1 L. Each time I did another jug and another
container it became easier and it became less confusing. I learnt that 1000
ml is 1 Litre an how to use a measuring jug. I feel it will help me cook and
make the right measurements and put 2 tablespoons of vanilla instead
of 2 cups of vanilla and when I read a recipe I will actually get it.
It was really fun!
