Reading Sample

WALT: rote learn

Every week we need to do a mnemonic. Our mnemonics help us to remember words, when I do my 
mnemonic I like to do one that I will remember more easy, so that I can just say that sentience then I can spell that word. Mnemonics help us with our spelling words big time even more if you make it funny or something that you like it could even help you learn vivaciously. 

Self Evaluation: I think that I did a pretty good job at creating some example mnemonics that are understandable and I think that my description would help someone understand a mnemonic a bit better.

Peer comment-#Oliver. Callum you did great with your description it gives a very clear message 
But you could improve with your evaluation.

Math Sample

WALT use known facts to solve unknown facts.

What we did was we made a little video about our strategy that we are using at math time to help us remember it. Why, we are doing this to share our our work at our student led conference. And to prove that we know our strategy. I made this in week one and two. How I made it. I used the app show me 
and I did what I was learning in math, recorded it with my voice over the top of it explaining what I did. This is one example take 29x5= what well all you need to do is go 30x5= an easy way to work this out is to pretend that there is no 0 then once you have worked that out just -5 off then you have your answer like this. 30x5=150-5=145 so 29x5=145.

Evaluation: I think that I did very well at explaining and showing my strategy but next I should complete it in the given time.

Feedback-Adarsh. Nice work Callum and you could speak up a bit more but other than that it it's great.
