Multiplication Maths Game

For this week, I was learning to solve problems in multiplication.  3 x 4 was equal to 12 and that was easy.  7 x 9 means 7 fish in 9 groups and altogether adds up to 63 fish.  So the answer was 63 and I was right.  I know I was good because I'm professional.  I see that I know my multiplication really well, maybe Mrs Ramkalawan should move me to the next level.

My Island Paradise

Walt: write a creative story in paragraphs.

On my Island, there is only 1 person and that person is me.  I have a huge sea to surf on and have fun.  Sometimes I go on my boat   fishing to catch some delicious fish. The last time I ate fish was with tuna and bread and it was taste yummy.  

I would have a waterproof tv that I would cruise with, out in sea.  I would watch spongebob squarepants, and rugby, especially  the game between All Blacks and Australia. My tv will be the biggest flat screen ever. It will have the latest channels and would record me. !

But thats just a dream. If only dreams didn’t end.

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.

Easter Egg

Stunt Wheel

Walt: make a stunt wheel.

For this term our topic study is toys. We got the idea from a New Zealand School Journal. to make a stunt wheel. When I  finished my stunt wheel, I took it outside to see if it worked. The stunt wheel moved by the wind. If the wind was too strong then your stunt wheel will break, that if you use to make stunt wheel with paper. So use thick, hard cardboard.

My learning

I’ve learnt to add and subtract numbers less than 10 in Studyladder.
        

I am practicing my addition and subtraction in Studyladder. I am adding and subtracting whole numbers. I want to learn more maths like adding Decimals.

Netbook Reflection 2012

I love my netbook.  Let me tell you why I love my netbook.

Netbook helps me learn stuff like maths.  I love maths that why I love my netbook. It's so much fun to learn maths or games on your netbook because my netbook is the best.  My netbook is so special, I'll give you 4 reason why. It's because my netbook makes connections to people, 
I learn how to positive ,I learn to share my work and create fun things.  To be honest, on my netbook it's so much fun to work with.

I love my netbook.  Do you love your netbook?

The Surprise of our Netbook

14 September 2012

WALT: write a procedure.

Dear Mr Hendricks

In my opinion, I strongly believe, NO, I will convince you to believe me that we should take our netbook home.

Mr Hendricks, Room 9 and I would love to take our netbooks home. Only if you agree.  If you don’t have any ideas why Room 9 and I should take our netbook home, then let me give examples of why we should take our netbook home because we have a lot of learning to do. Let me tell you what I am learning. I am learning how to spell, to do maths like basic facts, also writing and reading. NOW that is important because reading is like understanding more things, talking properly and being able to read more books.

From the reasons above, I question whether you will allow us to take our netbook home. That is why I must convince you to let us to take our netbooks home. For example, Room 9 and I love our netbooks because If we love our netbook then we love learning too. Also Including, If we love our netbook then we love our netbook and nothing bad will happen to our netbook.

I strongly believe that we can take our netbook home because we have no home work. How am I supposed to learn without homework. Since I know my netbook is special to me, then I can learn more things from my netbook because my netbook has everything.

Netbooks are fun and easy nothing is hard just easy because everyone loves to learn like me, so if you allow us to take our netbook. You know, the more we take our netbook, the more we learn.

To be honest, Room 9 and I agree to take our netbook home because we are ready and if you don’t agree, someday I can take your daughter to school from home. Then after school I can take her back home or clean your car or clean your house, your garden, your washing and your shoes. I’m a good girl don't you think? If you think I am a good girl can we take our netbook home PLEASE.

For instance, If we forgot something to do for our schoold work then we can do that at home with our netbook. We don’t want to waste our time writing in our books that is because you have to walk there and walk back home, so no time to do that .  

As evidence, instead using books you can do everything in your netbooks because your netbooks have everything inside it, so it is that easy. In my support of this I would like to continue learning at home.

Furthermore, you don’t want us to waste our money on books because if you buy books then you have to buy a book every time. When you are finished your book. It looks “boring". In fact, we love learning, if we love learning then we can learn more “right”? yes, I agree and I hope you agree too.

Mr Hendricks, Room 9 and I ask you to allow us to take our netbooks home because ROOM 9 AND I ARE IN LOVE WITH OUR NETBOOKS.  

In my conclusion, I love my netbook very much. Please give me a chance to take my netbook home because I’m in love with my netbook. Mr Hendricks, don't forget I love learning. In my opinion, as you can see, I hope you let us take our netbook home.

Last but not least, it is my dream to take it home. So PLEASE Mr Hendricks we are begging you if we can take our netbooks home we can improve that we can get better by learning on our netbooks. PLEASE, PLEASE Mr Hendricks can we take our netbook home I am begging you. Just Room 9 can take their netbook home. Of course we are begging you because we have nothing to do just playing and NO learning. Thank you.
