Scientific Method

Today in science I learnt that Method is the M word for procedure. Yesterday I learnt how to create a scientific method & that when doing a practical or an experiment to never take anyone's tools & use it for your experiment because you might get invalid data.

Measurement video - Bloopers

This is a blooper of a video we were supposed to make about the measurement of our class. Our task was to create a video of how we measure our class. We didn't get to create an actual video but we did make heaps of bloopers. My next step is to create an actual video and post it on my blog. What I found challenging in this attempt to make a video was trying not to laugh & not be so nervous. I really enjoyed the laughs in this video.

Ihumatao

This term in Social Studies we have been learning about Ihumatao and what is happening on the land. We got given 3 focus questions which were:

Why does the government want the land at Ihumatao?

Why are protesters aiming to stop housing development at Ihumatao?

Why does Maori not want to give the land?

Before I started my research I believed that the Maori were being selfish for not giving the land to the government so they could build more houses for those who are in need. But after my research this is what I found out and what I thought about it. Our task was to write a 600+ word essay about what we learnt. 

Probability Table

This is my probability table.
We have been working on possible outcomes of rolling dice. Here is what I did to show my understanding and what I learnt.

Tree Diagram #2

Here we are talking about Walls, Carpets & Curtains.
Our task was to figure out all the possible outcomes if you had a yellow wall, white carpet and cream curtains. Here is what I figured out.
This was okay to make it wasnt hard but it wasnt easy. I enjoyed making this cause I love decorating and organising.

Tree Diagram

Today we learnt how a tree diagram works.
Our task was to have 3 meals and 2 desserts and find what all the possible outcomes could be.
This was real simple to because I use it as a example if i forget.

Kiwiana - My Culture

This term in Social Studies we have been exploring Kiwiana. We got to visit Waitangi Treaty Grounds and explore the background of our home and and the history that got us to where we are now. We also got to create so much icons and symbols that represents our Maori culture and where we come from. 

While we were in Waitangi we got to play around with so much technology and when we finally figured out how to work them our task was to create a world on VR ( Virtual Reality) that showed everything we learnt.

Probability Art

This is my Probability Art. We created this to make learning about Probability vocabulary fun. I really enjoyed making this cause it was fun to play around with all the tools and all the different colours.
I've learnt that probability can go no higher than 1 and no l lower than 0. Impossible is 0 or 0%, Certain is 1 or 100%. So because Possible is in the middle its either 1/2, 0.5 or 50%.
If I roll a dice the probability of getting a 5 is 1/6. We have 6 as the denominator cause there are only 6 possible outcomes.

Probability

Probability

I have been learning about probability in my classroom. We have learnt the vocabulary, the order and and how it works.

So far I know most of the probability vocab and how it works

Example

Mathematics Vocabulary

This week we have been learning about fractions Vocabulary. We decided to make a slide about the vocab we have learnt so we can remember them off by heart. This was actually so fun to create I enjoyed it very much. Nothing about this was hard but it was challenging to remember.

Fractions Quiz

Welcome back to my page
This is my Fractions Quiz that I have been working on in my Maths Class for the past couple of weeks. Please enjoy and try your very best.

Maths:Decimals

Welcome back to my blog this is my decimals a bit of fractions as shown in this picture. I have been working on in term 2. We have been learning about dividing, multiplying and changing decimals into fractions. I have struggled a bit on the topic quite a bit but have enjoyed every bit. Next time I need to work on understanding and identifying my work and my task.
