• Can you choose answer by using different strategies to solve the following:

           

1. Aunty Reka prepared a hangi for 47 people.  19 more people came.  How many came altogether?

              47+19=(40+10)+(7+9)

My Poetry

 i have been working on the poetry about my school. it has over a week but now i'm finally done.

                      My School
                The school was usual enough
                It had a library,  a pool, fields and basketball courts.
                It even had a Sensory Garden 
                 

My friends and I did what kids do -
                Played basketball,
                Read all our favourite books,
                Swam backstroke and freestyle,
                Played infinity tag on the field.
                Jumped and laughed through the sensory garden.
                Doing nothing important.  Mihi.
