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.

high like birds.

Maths:Andre

My learning intention was to work out equitations using column addition. My activity was addition. The first part was easy but then It got harder and harder because you have to start to do the answer backwards.    

This is my I am a Kayak poem

I am a kayak waiting for the children to sit on me.
 I am dancing

 in the water while waiting for the children.

 The ocean is my dance floor

 I flow with the sea
and the sea flows with me

 The sound of the waves is my music.
