All About Maths!

Hello and welcome back to my blog, I hope everyone is doing well. This week for math we have been talking about theoretical probability's. Firstly we had to do a quiz about probability, then go onto a spin the wheel website and put six different things to do in quarantine and spin the wheel 30 times and see what it landed on the most, and then make three statements about it. Here is my work.

What statements do you think I could've made?

Writing!

Hello and welcome back to my blog, I hope everyone is safe at home in quarantine. This week for writing we have been focusing on contractions, words ending in Y and C vs K. We had to watch 1 video about each thing, then on a collaborative doc show one thing we learnt about each things. Then we had to do a quiz about those three things. Our create task was to make a DLO showing 2 rules about each thing  that apply to that topic, here is mine.

Did you learn anything about contractions, words ending in Y or C vs K if so what?

Place Value!

Hello and welcome back to my blog, I hope everyone is doing well in quarantine. The last 2 weeks for online math we have been getting to pick a strategy to focus on this week I chose place value. There is a google drawing with each 2 videos for each strategy the options were rounding and compensation, equal addition, reversibility, place value, standard written form. I chose place value, we had to chose a way to show our understanding of the strategy I chose to do a slide, here it is.


What is your favourite strategy to use in math? Mines is equal adjustments:)

What Makes A Good Report?

Hello and welcome back to my blog, I hope everyone is doing well and safe at home. This week for writing we have been focusing on our reports. We have been talking about "What makes a good report"? Our task was to make a slideshow with three different slides on it. Each slide had to have one different thing on what we think makes a good report. We had to change the thing that the question said, and show what it looked like before we changed it and after we changed it. Here is what I did...

Are Zoo's Good Or Bad?

Hello and welcome back to my blog, today I am going to be telling you if I think zoo's are good or bad?

Zoo's are great right? You get to be up close and feed some amazing animals that you’d pretty much never get to see in the wild. Clearly, zoos are a win for people. But when it comes to animals they aren't as happy as humans. All animals are so caged in, they don't get to explore the great outdoors, where many of the animals at the zoo belong. Zoo's are great entertainment but the animals probably just want to step on one different piece of land for just a few minutes. So personally I do like going to the zoo but I feel bad for all the animals who don't get to leave a 1-5 metre cage.

Do you like the zoo, if so why or why not?

Locked down at my house!

Hello and welcome back to my blog, I hope everyone is doing well.

Today I will be talking to you about what I have been doing during the locked down. The mornings are usually the same I wake up at 8:30 - 9 get up and have some breakfast, which is usually a waffle or cereal. After that I make my bed, get dresses and then go for a at least 30 minute bike ride. After my bike ride I usually play a board game or go on my Ipad, ( my favourite board game is battleships or game of life ) Then at 12 pm its lunch time! Usually we would just get our own lunch but somedays my dad makes us a cooked lunch. Usually I would have vogels bread with cheese and salami, it might not sound good but trust me, give it a try and you will love it. After that somedays me and my mum would go for a 30 minute walk or do some baking, recently I made some delicious red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. After lunch I will do some maths or read a book, the book I am reading right now is Thea Stilton and the mystery in Paris. After that i usually would go outside with my sister if it's a nice day if not I would watch some Netflix or Disney +. Then around 6 pm it's dinner time some different meals we have are chicken wraps, vegetarian nachos, roast chicken and many more. We have desert every second night it would usually be ice cream but since I have given that up for lent it is usually just a Popsicle. then at 9 pm I will go to bed and maybe read for a bit or just go to sleep.
I hope everyone is safe and doing well๐Ÿ˜€

What have you being doing to occupy yourself during this time?
