An important question to ask about my learning is…
“Why did we make the spinners during Science?” – Danny asked.

“where the rainforest is and who lives there (tribal communities)” – Heeba
“what refraction and reflection means” – Aisha
“in Hockey, we must focus on slide passing and not attacking and smacking the ball, because it makes the pass really inaccurate and it doesn’t go where we want it to” – Zafirah
I need to improve on my…
“sports – football in particular” – Mostafa
“chatting and answering out in class, and remember to always put my hand up” – Khadijah Ur. Rehman
At the start of the week, I didn’t know that…
“people could survive and live in the rainforest, and the natural materials they used to hunt (blowpipes), and make shelter (bamboo)” – Muntaha
“we could use division to solve problems involving percentages, for example, finding 20% of an amount is the same as dividing it by 5.” – Arisha
