Word Problems


Task Description:

For this task, I had to do these words problems, and in them contained both words and numbers for me I don’t really do good in word problems because sometimes I misread or don’t understand what or where the equation is in it, and since today was the day to get this, I can say I did need a little bit of help. Me and my friend did this together and we solved each question on our own, and if one of us needed help, we would both work on the slide together. My highlight for this task was giving the word problems a go and trying to solve it out, the low light for this was that some of these word problems were confusing to understand but I managed to understand in the end.

 

Coordinate Battleship

Task Description:

For this Math’s task, I didn’t understand it at first. But then a few students in my class taught me how the game was suppose to work, it took me a while to really get the hang of it and do it with a partner but during each round and game it started becoming really fun to play it was pretty obvious I lost but what was important was that I had fun. I didn’t want to take a lose as an option so I asked to do a couple more rounds of the game again and because we had it for F.I.O.P my highlight for this was getting to learn a new math type game to do with friends and family my low light was not understanding and trying to really think where each ship is located though that is the point of the game. What I think I could work on is thinking of other ways to find the ships.

 

It’s time to reflect

Task Description:

For today’s literacy task, my class had to reflect on our speeches, in this task it asks us a few questions on how we think we did before our speech, before our speech and after our speech. I gave my honest opinion on what I think I felt during all of those. I honestly was really glad that I could get my speech delivered and done with, however there is still a few things I think I could do better on. I did my best I tried my best and I did what I could do.

Think before you share – Cybersmart Challenge

Task Description:

For this task, I had to do this cyber smart challenge, The highlight for this task, is learning what to post and what not to post. These are things I think should be posted and shouldn’t be posted, I didn’t really have a low light for this task because it was really easy to do. I don’t think I had to work on anything for this task since it was really nice,easy,simple and quick.

Task Description:

For this task, I had to go through these questions and answer each one, I found this kind of confusing for the way it looked, but I had some help from friends in my group. I managed to finish this task, my highlight for this task was getting better each time I do these types of equations and my low light was I guess trying to take a photo of my maths book to show my working out. What I think I could work on is trying to solve these equations in my head instead of on the book this way it is quicker and more efficient for me to do my work.

Reflection

Starting last week or the week before that, my class had started to do skits. We started with doing a bus stop going around the class to each of these big papers with a group with people we don’t usually get along with and start writing ideas of what we think about the question. I found that kind of interesting because I get to work with people I don’t usually talk to or work with. I found the bus stop interesting to do as well. When we started doing skits we had to also get into groups of people we didn’t know and it had to be like boy, girl type of groups. Out of all the skits that we did this week, last week and maybe the week before that. I already forgot which paper my group had done but it was one that was involving one person having to feel frustrated or angry alone at the table and the other two having to do both the right and the wrong thing I think on supporting the person that was angry. What my take away from this was learning what I could do or any other person in my class can do when someone in our school/team is feeling angry or frustrated. What I enjoyed from this was getting to work with other people than people who I’d normally work with, watching other people perform their ideas was also cool because I could tell what their main take away from it was. I could tell many people who performed was inspired by my group because we did something that the other groups didn’t do and the week after people had started to take that idea and form it into theirs which I thought was cool. I had no low light because this was something really cool I’ve done with my class.

For today’s math task, I managed to finish this task, my highlight for this task was getting this done and blogged. Also having to really understand the questions and the answers. I didn’t have a low light for this task and something I’ve learnt from this task is that not everything is as hard as it looks you just need to give it a go. I think I did really well and if I haven’t I did my best.

Task Description:

For today’s Math session, I had to do this task and this task was about expressions. At first, my brain did not process what was happening in the equations given to me, until my teacher gave some examples on how to solve some of those equations. She had given us a few more so we could maybe start to really understand how the equations worked. My highlight for this task was getting to really learn how to do the equations by myself after learning how to do it which taught me how the letter with the numbers work. My low light for this task was trying to get the hang of doing the equations and I would like to work on doing more of these types of equations.

New Vocabulary

Task Description:

For this reading task, I had to find the meaning of words and put them into a sentence, I found this very difficult to do because I hardly knew any of the words that were on the task to do. My highlight for this task was I guess getting to know new vocabulary since this was the main goal for this task and my low light was probably trying to understand it’s meaning and come up with my own sentence with that new word in it. I hope to work on more new vocab so I can probably use it instead of the same words I usually use every day.
