Today for inquiry/mitey we had to answer these four questions which was based on two videos that had the answers in them. We had to write in full sentence to explain why or how that answer to the question came to be. Other than that this task was easy to do for me and I learnt some other new things from these two videos.
Today for maths, we had to match the definition to the word and I enjoyed matching the definitions to the word. Maths isn’t my strongest ability but in the end I managed to complete this task and post it on my blog.
Task description:For today’s maths we had to get into mixed groups, while we were in mixed groups we had to do a science experiment for sugar dissolving in water. We were and still are learning how to make accurate measurements using a variety of measuring equipment. We had also learnt some new vocabulary and these words were solute, meaning the substance (sugar) being dissolved in the water, the next word was solvent which meant dissolving (water) solvent was the water that dissolved the sugar. And the last one was the solution which meant a mixture of 2 or more substances. In the end we learnt and enjoyed the science experiment.
This is my maths task from this week, we had to find the difference in these graphs and had to solve some on the slides.
Task description: This took a while to finish, we had to use PPDAC which stands for Problem,Plan,Data,Analyse and Conclusion. Hard to do bu manage to finish!
It was a thunderous night, while I was in a rush to work. I suddenly slipped on the concrete and hit my head. It started to bleed out and suddenly I was unconscious on the ground with no one around. By the time I woke up I was in the same position on the concrete but this time I didn’t know where I was. It looked like I was in this alley with this black cat just wandering around. He had no collar, no owner, no nothing. He must have been a stray cat. I didn’t care much about that, what I cared about more was where I was and what time it was. I was about to check my watch but then I realised it wasn’t there. “This is strange,” I got up off the ground and started to walk out of the alley. I got anxious because I got negative vibes around here.
– Task description – In maths today we had learnt about Equivalent Ratios, we learnt it by examples in smarties. This helped because we understood more as we saw more examples. And these are the photos of the examples,
(What I’ve read so far)
Efi had been making robots since she was little, she would always get embarassed when it would fail infront of her fails again and again. She never gave up because she thought if she was succesful in one, it would have made the world a different place. And as hope fades away for her, her best friend Naade tries to help her by finding videos on how to build robots and inructions on how to make it walk and talk.
(My predictions)
I predict that Efi is succesful in engineers a robot. And it is succesful in helping Numbani and destroy’s all evil that happens furher more in the story. With her bestfriends helping her defeat them along with the bot who hopefully does destroy the evil people/bots in the story.
This is my maths task for the week, we had to learn how find the diameter,circumference and area of a circle and a few of the slides show us how we could find it, this made it a lot easier for me to find and then I got some to try out myself.
I hope you enjoyed this slideshow!
Today for the first session, we had to make a bridge out of paper that could hold the weight of a squishy dice. We had to work together with people we hadn’t worked with before to be able to communicate with them and accept others’ ideas while at it. We got different colored paper and started, our group had creative ways to build a bridge but it just didn’t work, so we just put the paper on top of the paper.
The next thing we did was we had to make a sky tower out of straw it was hard but we tried to make it look 3D and in these photos, you can see it looks like a house on the side of the cups. It took a lot of tape and effort, some of the straws fell as we tried to hold it up to stick together, then we had 1 minute to accomplish the tower we had to rush through it but made it at the end.
Finally, the last challenge was to stack up cups with string and rubberband without using our hands, we got different colored cups as a team each and worked together to stack one on top of another in the end we made it to the top and accomplished all three challenges!
In the end, this was all about teamwork and participation, including others that we don’t usually work with, and most importantly having fun!
