The Summer Learning Journey – 2023 – Superhero of my ethnicity –

Task Description: I’m not going to lie, this was harder then what I thought it would be, I had to think of names and some other information about my character. And for the photo, It was hard to use the few links that were on the side, I decided to search on google and this is what I found. This task was a teaser from the summer learning journey to start us Point England students into the journey. My highlight for this task was I guess making a superhero, and my low light was having to think really hard about the information. What I can take from this is that being creative with something really can get our minds working in a fun way. If we think differently about something it could change the way we do it or the way we act from it.

Wk 7 Algebra

Task Description:

For Wednesday’s maths work, we had this task and I didn’t get to finish it so today I finally managed too. For this task it was about most of our X’s on our maths test, and this was one of them, for me we worked as a group to complete this as it was a very hard task. We thought of different strategies to work out the questions, and then we finally understood. My highlight was working in a group rather than working alone since it progresses our learning further more, and my low light was being stuck on the same slide until we had gotten the working out for our answers.

Christmas Word Problems

Task Description:

For Wednesday and today, we had to do our own Christmas word problems and swap with a friend, I decided to swap with Lynette and I tried to think of five questions that were related to Christmas and that involved some type of maths. In the end I managed to finish making my five questions and did Lynette’s questions for me, they were quite tricky but I managed to complete them in the end. I had fun swapping and making these questions especially since it was about Christmas. One of these tasks were by me and the other one was by Lynette.

The Enchanted forest

Enchanted Forest

Task Description:

For this task, we had to write a story about us being in an enchanted forest, we had to write about our adventures in the enchanted forest, we had to create a problem then solve it but we also had to include a lot of dialogue, I decided that I wanted to make mine long though I didn’t have too. I actually quite enjoyed doing this task because it got me to imagine or to think about what I did or what I could do in my story.

Maths – Christmas Fractions, decimals and word problems!

Task Description:

For this week, this was the first proper maths session we’ve had in a while. For this task this was basically just a revision or in other words just a recap of what we learnt in the past few terms, for me I worked together with a few others since I didn’t really remember all of it. But after working out these problems, what we learnt all came back and it got easier to solve the rest. My highlight was getting to remember or revision what we learnt from the past weeks my low light was trying hard to remember what we learnt from past terms. I took back a lot of information I forgot and now I have it once again.

Fruit Orchard

Task Description:

For this weeks maths task, I had to do this task, and for this task our WALT for this maths slides, were to “solve multiplication problems by using skip counting or additive strategies interpret and solve multiplication story problems.” For these slides I found getting the answer quite easy as I was to just multiply the numbers in the story about the strawberry patch. Some of them were sort of like trick questions where some of them had the same amount of it. My highlight for this task was getting to get my brain started for the day and I had no low light for this task, what I did take on from this task was working independently on my own on this task can make more efficient affects to my learning.

Stage 7 Word Problems – Compass

Task Description:

For this week we had this task to do for maths, and for this task we had to find different types of strategies to solve for each word problem or an operation that would work well for these word problems. For some of these my table had a group discussion about how it could be solved or what possible logical answers there could be for these answers, we figured these out together one by one and got through it very quickly. But for the last slide we had to pair up with a partner/buddy and get them to answer our questions for us. My high light for this task was getting into a group discussion with my table about this task and different ways to solve it or different answers that could possibly be the answer, my low light was having to do a lot of reading. Overall I hope you enjoy going through these few slides of this first weeks maths and I hope you enjoy!

Word problems L3

Task Description:

For this weeks maths, we had to learn about problems that include both multiplication and division, we had to try and work out these word problems. I found most of this easy to do, but sometimes I think doing word problems are a bit tricky though all I really have to do is do BEDMAS with the numbers to get the answer. I successfully in the end managed to get this finished and I tried my best, with the help with my maths book and my group on my table we all talked about how we solved these and worked out the total result. My highlight for this task was having a group discussion with my table and figuring it out together, My low light for this task would be having to read it because this would get me all mixed up about which of the operations I would have to use for the questions given.

Smart Media – Media Detective

Task Description: For the end of today’s session we had Mr Goodwin come into our class and do this task with us for cyber smart, this task was indeed fun to do and write as the end of the day comes by. On one of these slides there was a video without a car crash but someone who went over the speed limit, we then had to figure out why they made the ad for people to watch. All of media is made for a reason, to persuade, inform or to entertain.  I found this fun to do for the end of the session today, I hope you enjoy looking through these few slides I did for cyber smart!

Maths Goals – Term 4 – 2023

Vika Maths Goals tm4 23

Task Description:

For this task, I had to write maths goals for this term that I could improve or work on and I think I have some pretty decent goals on what to work or improve on. Things I think could get me to the next level would be having a better understanding of the maths task then to guess because that wouldn’t really take me anywhere and I would just have obtained nothing. Another thing that could take me the the next level is thinking or visualising how I could solve the equation/problem, along with practising my BEDMAS every now and then when I have the free time during maths or at home. And one of the ways I think I can help myself is by asking people for help if I need it because it’s better then staying stuck on the same page for hours. This was the first maths type of task I have done today because it is the first day of term 4 and the end of my two week holiday. I hope you enjoy going through the link about my Maths Goals.
