Poetry Anthology

This term Jackson’s Studio has been writing lots of different poems. Over the last week we have been publishing our poems on a website called Storybird. On Storybird we turned our poems into a book called Poetry Anthology, because an anthology is a collection of poems

Here is my book which my haiku, diamante, acrostic and two sense poems. Can you guess which poem is which?




I hope you enjoyed reading my poems. What one was your favourite?

Maths problem solving

Last week we did some maths problem solving with our maths mates. This is the question:

Jamison has been saving up for a new app. He has $143 in his wallet and the game costs $129 how much will he have left over?
My first strategy is equal adjustments:

143 - 129 = 

+ 1     + 1

144 - 130 = 14

My second strategy is reversibility:

143 - 129 = ?

129 + ____ = 143 

129 + 1 = 130 

130 + 13 = 143

1 + 13 = 14
