Cubes in a Bag

Walt: make statements about data display

This activity is called Cubes in a Bag. The answer was impossible because there are no blue. I think this activity was simple. Next I would want to learn more about probability but more challenging.

Survey Report

In my maths group, we did any question to do a Survey. My question is What is your Hobby? We had to survey our class. The most popular Hobby is Other. The second popular Hobby is Cooking. The least popular Hobby is Reading. The same height is Swimming, Running and Art. I thought room 11 was going to choose Cooking but they choose other. I added all of them up, so the total is 22.  

Bar Graph

The most colour of counters is the Pink because it’s taller than all of the others. The least colour of counters is the Green also because It’s the shortest. Yellow and Blue is the same height. They both have 5 counters but different colours. The easiest way for me to read out of Tally Chart and Bar Graph is the Bar Graph.

As Fast as The Wind

Walt: discuss the problems and the solutions in sequence

As fast as the wind

In the story, Te Aho couldn’t sleep because school was tomorrow. He was starting a new school and it was a start of a new term. It was dark at night and the moonlight shining on the wall. Outside Te Aho’s house was wind blowing hard and Te Aho didn’t like the wind. Te Aho stared the picture on the wall.

Te Aho just could make out a boy. The wind had picked the boy and was carrying him through the air towards the sea. He shivered and snuggled inside his blanket. But he couldn’t stop thinking about the boy. So he shut his eyes so he can’t see the picture on the on the wall. Also Koro told him that there was Rugby too. He didn’t want to play rugby but Koro encouraged him.

When he played rugby he ran fast like the wind. After school he was happy. Koro asked him how was school? He said It was great. Also he said I can play rugby.

Bright Ballons

Walt: discuss the fairness of the game

In this game, I had to find the green and yellow balloon. The less likely colour in this game is yellow because It has 3 yellow balloons. I think this game was not fair because it has less and it has more. I knew the answer quickly because all I had to do was to just find the less green or yellow coloured balloon. This game wasn’t difficult, it was simple. Next I would want to learn more about probability but  more challenging.

Cross Country

Walt: write a rap/poem

Cross Country

Running and jogging

Through the little kids and dodging

People are sprinting

Some childrens are sitting

Teachers are standing at the corner

Childrens are getting warmer

Their foreheads are full of sweat

Makes them red in the flesh

People running on the grass

Because there are people off task

Childrens having stitches

Some are snitchers

Slipping on the mud

When I fall I create a flood

My ankle is sore

I keep on looking at the floor

I can see the finish line

I am running out of time

Finished! I breathe in and out

The teachers shout
