Respond to text – The 20 minute city

Task description: This week during reading I did respond to text – the 20 minute city. We had to answer 4 questions in our own ways. We then had to do a create task with a buddy. I chose Vika to be my buddy. We had to explain what a 2o minute city is and the benefits plus limitations about a 20 minute city. I really loved this task because we had to create a video and we had to use screencastify. 

My highlight was making the video with my friend Vika, because I found out that I said “particular and New york” wrong. I was a bit embarrassed but I really didn’t care. My low light had to write the slides, because it was really boring and it took a long time. Please leave a positive comment on my blog. Thank you!

My quote of the day: Everything doesn’t have to be perfect, It just has to be done right!

Fruit Orchard

Task description: This week during Maths, we are learning to find the appropriate strategy to solve each word problem, solve problems that involve multiplication and division, and use equations to express a problem. Appreciate that tens are nested in hundreds and thousands and use that knowledge to rename whole numbers. We had to learn how to find the appropriate strategy to solve each word problem, solve problems that involve multiplication and division and use equations to express a problem. We were also looking into renaming the whole numbers to make the addition and subtraction of collections of tens or hundreds easier. It was really easy to do so me and my friend got it done really fast. The questions were about fruits and how much you’ll get or how much it costs. I really loved this task so much, I’ve learnt so much from this task. Learning new things is really tricky because you don’t get the pattern.

My lowlight was having to find out new methods to solve a problem because I usually use the same methods to do my work. Something to work on for this week is finding out new strategies to solve each problem. It was kinda tricky because some questions require division and I am not good at division. Some questions are on multiplication, Quote of the day: You can never be overdressed or overeducated. I enjoyed this task very much, and I hope to do more like this soon. Hope you enjoyed.

What am I?

Task description: Today for Math I did what ami?. It was really fun because all we had to do was just solve the number of questions. I really enjoyed and loved this task, I really hope I do it again soon. My highlight was learning new things and having a go at this task today. I really enjoyed it. My lowlight is having to solve the problems when it’s hard. Something to work on for next week is nothing really, because I really liked this task and it was too hard for me. Quote of the day: Mathematics may not teach us to add love or subtract hate, but it gives us hope that every problem has a solution. I enjoyed this task very much, and I hope to do more like this soon. Hope you enjoyed. Please leave a comment; thank you for visiting my blog.

Stage 7 Word problems

Task description: Today for Math our math group worked on some stage 7 word problems. It was really confusing and hard at first but when we started to find out ways to solve them it was easy. I was a bit stuck on slide 2 but my friend helped me a lot. Maths can sometimes be really tricky, because you don’t know what’s about to come, what I mean by this is you think that the maths word is easy because of how it looks, but really it takes some time to solve it. One thing I really love about Maths is that you get to make your own question and that you also have to figure it out yourself. Because some mathematicians don’t just solve their own maths question straight away, they actually have to solve the problems themself.
Quote of the day: You don’t always know the answer to your own question, you have to solve it.
My highlight was being able to solve all the problems really fast even though our group was stuck on it for a bit. I had a really good maths session again and I loved how well our group shared their ideas with each other so I don’t have a low light from today’s maths lesson. As I said before it was a good maths lesson and I don’t have anything to work on today. After that I completed the task, and I posted it on our blog. I enjoyed this task very much, and I hope to do more like this soon. Hope you enjoyed. Please leave a comment; thank you for visiting my blog.

Explanation reconstruction

My highlight was being able to finish the task really fast as it was pretty easy. Yet a lot of people were confused on what order it went in and they were stuck on it for a bit. I had a really good start to our reading session and I loved how well the people on our table worked together and shared their ideas with each other so I don’t have a low light from today’s maths lesson. As I said before it was a good maths lesson and I don’t have anything to work on today. After that I completed the task, and I posted it on our blog. I enjoyed this task very much, and I hope to do more like this soon. Hope you enjoyed. Please leave a comment; thank you for visiting my blog.

Media Detective

Today for Cybersmart I did Media Detective. We had to answer 2 questions for each slide. We had to watch or look at the picture or video and answer questions about it. We then at the end had to make our own slide about fake media scammers. We had Mr Goodwin (AKA Matua Goody) In our class today explaining to us about the task for today that her created. My highlight is Making my own slide, which was an advertisment from Heinz saying that they have the best ketchup. My lowlight was watching the video on slide 3, because the video was way to long and it was also boring watching it. Please leave a positive comment on my blog. Thank you!

Math Goals

Swaimah – Maths Goals tm4 23 – Press on the link

Task Description: Today for Math we did Math Goals. I had to write 3 things that I need to get to the next level. I chose to learn more bedmas more often – Finding more ways to solve a problem – Understanding the problem. I had to also write how I can help myself in maths. I think something I really need to work on is putting time in math-whizz. Understanding algebra more so that I can solve the problem easily and fast.

My highlight was thinking of some good math goals for this term, also customizing the document. My lowlight was writing the goals and having to blog it. Something I can work on next time is having to think harder for more goals. Please leave a positive comment on my blog. Thank you!

Week #2 – Holiday Challenges

 

Today I did Week #2 Holiday Challenges. My teacher Whaea Saf didnt have time to make week 2 holiday challenges. I decided to make them myself. I think I’m the only one right now attending. I really like these challenges because I get to work during the holidays and get my mind on something to do. On the slides we were suppose to do challenges everyday except Sunday and Saturday. I made the challenges easy for me so that my parents would allow me to do it. My highlight is making the slides. My lowlight was nothing. Something I’ll work on next time is trying to update the slides as soon as possible. Please leave a positive comment on my blog. Thank you!

Week #1 Holiday Challenges

Today I did Week #1 Holiday Challenges. My teacher Whaea Saf Challenged the class to do holiday challenges. I think I’m the only one right now attending. I really like these challenges because I get to work during the holidays and get my mind on something to do. On the slides we were suppose to do challenges everyday except Sunday and Saturday. I decided to add Sunday and Saturday because I thought it would be better. I also changed some of the activities on my own.

My highlight is Doing the activities. My lowlight was forgetting to complete the tasks. Something I’ll work on next time is trying to update the slides as soon as possible. Please leave a positive comment on my blog. Thank you!

Trassum Lvl 3 & 4- Algebra

Today for math I did Trassum Lvl 3 & 4 – Algebra. It was really hard to do level 4 because there were brackets but I ended up finding the answers. Level 3 was okay, but it was much easier than level 4. I really like Algebra now because when you actually write the equation on pen and paper then it’s much easier to solve. We watched a few videos from Ruapotaka school and we knew how to solve the answers.

My highlight was achieving the trophies. My lowlight was working out and solving level 4. Something I’ll work on next time is… understanding more about algebra and finding out new ways to solve the equation. Please leave a positive comment on my blog. Thank you! Bye~
