I am proud of my maths task because I worked really hard on it to make it my personal best.
What  learnt was to to find different ways to make more multiplication like 4 groups of 15 = 50.  Something that challenged  me was to figure out the maths questions like 4 groups of 7.

Totara hub has been learning about Matariki and the seven sisters. I learnt that the seven sisters have special things about them, and that Waifi and Wasita are sisters. We also did little workshops like how to build roses out of flax and painting on rocks. I was in the rose making and then the stones. It was really fun making the flowers even if it was really tricky, well not for Alex, he got perfect on his own. I found it really tricky so I had help from Miss Jackett.
