My Reflections


This term, room 11 did three e-asttle tests to to help with what we have to learn next term.


For reading I did very bad because I was not reading and listening properly.  My level was around 2A and I was so disappointed with my result. All I have to do to improve is to listen and think before I continue.  I will have to learn to find and understand the main idea in the text and to understand and interpret what the author wrote and question the purpose and lots more.  I hope the next e-asttle test I will do what I should to get to my level and where I should be.


In Number and Measurement  I’ve done very well but I’m not where I should be.  In my overall score I got a 3B.  For my number sense and operation I got a 2P and my algebra  I got a 3P.  Measurement I got nothing for my result and that is not very good. My gaps are shapes. My strengths are  writing and solving comparison problems.   I need to learn to write and solve decimal problems.


Today I did my best in my geometry and statistics and I got a 3P and that is just good but I need more effort to get there where I should be. My strengths is  using the polygon symmetry/angle properties to solve practical problems.   I  need to learn is to make and explain patterns with translation/rotation/reflection and a lot more.


The next result for e-asttle and I know that I can do my best to learn and to listen.  I know what I should get to the level.

My Dice Ball.


Walt: make a toy.
My toy.

Today we are learning about mechanisms.  This is my toy and it is called the dice ball.  I called it a dice ball because my toy is kind of like a dice but has a ball stuck on it. The mechanisms on my toy is a fulcrum.  Making a dice ball isn’t that hard. I used a ruler, pencil, paint, scissor and hard card board.  First I had drawn 6 square on a hard card board.  Next I cut the 6 square and started painting then I stuck the 6 sides together shaped like a dice.  I chosed purple, pink, yellow, blue, green and black to paint my box. I made sure it’s dry before I stucked it together and left it for 10 minutes.I used a sticky tape to attach them together. After cutted one corner of the dice so the tennis ball can fit into the hole after that your done.Mr Hendrick’s our principal judged pur toys. He said it was challenge for him to decide the top three which were Mikayla, Matthew and Britney. It’s all about mechanism he told us all. Too bad for me but at least I finished.

I.C.T


Walt: use photoshop.

I.CT is part of technology and I’ll explain you what steps we followed in I.C.T.

1.  First download 8 images of your passions from google.
    Passions are things that you like to do.

2.  Next you go on photoshop then go to your files to get 1 image from your passions.
    We take 1 by 1 so it will easy for to work on.

3.  Next you have to copy the lock background so you colour it for the background.
    If you didn’t copy it, then you won’t colour it because it’s has a lock.

4.  After that, remember to turn your opacity to 80%.
    Opacity is like something to draw on the your image of passion.

5.  The fourth part is to layer and we only need 1 layer, colour the background.
    Layer are for your background so you can colour it.

6.  Then next you start painting the outline or the inside.
    Painting with your brush and it have to be the same color as your image of your passions.

7.  If your first image is finish, then next you can do the next image of your next passions.

8.  Last but not least, when you are finish just to remember to save it in your google drive.

When you are finish with the next 1 then do the other 1 of your passions.  Ict is not that hard but sometime your hands can get tired of painting and moving your mouse.
