My Maths Photo and Explanation

My Learning intention was to turn any whole numbers into fractions. We did this by rolling a dice and turning the number we were on into fractions. I have got the hang of this now.

The lighting arrives on the

As it perches considering

the country city

on restrained bases

and then proceeds on.

I am a Picnic basket By Quaid

I am a picnic basket

I am a basket waiting for

someone to use me.

I am gold and looped up

like pretzels.

I’m smooth and

round.

I live with the fruit

and the fruit with me.

I'm bumpy inside

so if you touch me

you’ll ooze and gooze with goosebumps.

I lay on the sand with the

shells beside me.

I’m happy most of the time

with the fruit surrounding me.

I like being a basket because

people can use me.

Library Skills

Using an index

L.I. - Library/Research skills

Using an index to find information quickly

Most non-fiction books have an index.  Like a table of contents, it lists the books contents and relevant page numbers, but in much more detail.  It presents the topics in alphabetical order to help your search.  Below is an example from a health book.
