How to be a Successful Point England Student

Do you know how to be a successful Point Englander student? I am going to explain to you why and how to be a successful Point England student. Being a successful student is important to people. It is good to use it wherever you are.

Trying your best- Trying your best means when there is something you can’t handle or can’t do you just have to try your best. For example if the teacher says go and work on your maths and the person thinks they can’t do it he thinks again that he could try his best. Trying your best also means giving 100 percent in everything you do and not giving up.

Using your manners- At school people always use their manners when they are with the teacher or some where else. For example if someone needs a rubber they can just ask like this, May I please use your rubber for a minute.   

Ignoring- Ignore means when somebody says something mean to you, you just ignore it or talk about it. For example if you walk past someone and they swear to you just ignore or tell the teacher on duty. It is important to ignore because if you don’t it will might start a fight.

Time in a Week

This week we have been learning about time. We had to work out how much time (minutes) we spent brushing our teeth, at school and watching t.v. Here is my pie graph that shows you how much time I spend on each activity.

Edgar Degas

My Artist’s name is Edgar Degas. Edgar Degas was born in July 19 1834 in Paris, France. He died in September 27 1917. Edgar Degas grew up in france where his mother was a opera singer and his father was a french banker. Edgar’s parents had money and he was able to go to good schools growing up. His mother died when he was thirteen years old.

This graph is showing how much time we spent doing these activities. We used examples from children in our class. We used multiplication and addition to work out how many minutes we spent doing each activity. Here is our class example.
