Week 6, Term 3 August 26, 2010

This week I have learned:

Maths: in maths I have learned that to find unknown angles in triangles you have to: When finding exterior angles on triangles you add both the two angles on the other side.  To find the angle on the interior when you have been given the exterior angle then all you have to do is take away the interior angle from the exterior angle and then you get the unknown angle.

English: In English I am learning to use active and passive voices. and active voice has less to be words such as was, is, and are. We are also learning how to use descriptive language which means to show not tell. E.g. Instead of saying: the happy dog jumped. You could say: the dog was greeting everyone with a giant smile.
