Perimeter workbook | learning form home | activity 2



Today for learning at home I have recently posted a DLO about how to figure out the perimeter of a circle(circumference) and this is the measurements/ perimeter workbook I was talking about. I enjoyed this task because it was short and it gave me a chance to go over work that I have completed in the past.
I hope you learnt something to if so please comment to tell me so.

I hope you enjoy because I know I did.
Have a go yourself at home:) I'd love to see what your answers are:)

circumference DLO | Learning from home



Today during Learning from home we have activities we have to complete and the easiest activity for me was perimeter. The reason for this DLO is because I had a little bit of trouble understanding the circumference because I have not done perimeter for a while so this DLO is for people that are having some troubles like me to understand. I have tried my best to explain it simply so you can understand properly.

-Hope you enjoy, Taylor

Book review: The knife of never letting go



The knife of never letting go

Chaos Walking - Wikipedia

  Author: Patrick Ness
Blurb:

PRENTISSTOWN IS NOT LIKE OTHER TOWNS!!
Everyone can hear everyone else's thoughts in an overwhelming, never-ending stream of noise. Just a month away from the birthday that will make him a man, Todd and his dog, Manchee---whose thoughts Todd can hear too, whether he wants to or not--stumble upon an area of complete silence. They find that in a town where privacy is impossible, something terrible has been hidden--a secret so awful  that Todd and Manchee must run for their lives. But how do you escape when your pursuers can hear your every thought.

Recommendation- I would recommend this book for 11+ and out of 5 starts I would rate a 4 1/2 stars because it is a little frightening.
