3d Shapes Maths

WAL about 3 d shapes

Make a container that holds exactly 60 blocks

What different shapes might it be?

What I learnt:

I learnt how to times numbers together like if it was 5x2x30, You would go 5x2=10 10x30= 300 and the question is 300.

6 High           2x5x6=  2x5= 10 10x60= 60 2 Wide 5 Across	1 High       1x2x30=  1x2=2 2x30= 60 2 Wide 30 Across
1 High 1 wide 60 across             1x1x60=                             1x1=1                            1x60= 60	1 High                                   4 wide 15 across                   1x4x15=                                    1x4=4                                     4x15=60

Animal Enclosure Reflection

Livy

My Creature is: A Chinchilla,

Some things I needed to consider about my creature: Dirt because they have dust baths, Leaves because they eat them, Toys made out of toilet paper rolls so they can go through them because that's their favourite, thing to do which is going through stuff  And i put that in there because they like to hide, Trees because they climb on trees and they live in them, Bed to sleep in

What I am pleased about: I am pleased about that the dust bath  because it worked and I bought real dirt because I was not quite sure about bringing real dirt, because I thought that the dust bath would not work. I am also pleased about that I used my noticing mussell by looking where the stuff was on my plan because I liked everything about my plan.

What I have found tricky: I found making the walls stay together with hot glue gun because they were really wiggly and  had to hold them for a quite long time but it was still a little wiggly and it was nice off Kalae to hold some walls for me.

What I would like to improve: Next time rather then hot gluing the walls maybe tape the walls so they won’t be as wiggly.

Sences Poem Bamboo Forest

The Bamboo Forest

I see  The Canopy above me and leaves falling down       

I smell The beautiful wind of the earth

I hear  The leaves crunching under my feet as I walk

I feel Like I am in heaven right now because the Bamboo tastes so good

I taste  The scrumptious juice from the bamboo

I think That something is going to appear out of nowhere

Step One Selecting a context	Lost in the Bush Save the Bush Fun in the Bush
Step Two & Three Create questions and identify one broad question	How do you keep warm in the bush??
Step Four What did I already know about my question?	You can light a fire, you could cover yourself with clothes you have in a bag.
Step Five Design your creation	My Plan does not look like my Creation because the plan wouldn’t go the way I would want it to
Step Six Build your creation	This is my Creation
Step Seven Reflection	How did it go? It went well until I found out that it would not work out how I planned it to. What went well The thing that went really well was that the sticks stuck on really well on the cardboard. What was a challenge? It was a challenge for me to hot glue gun the sticks but luckily Henrietta helped me do it.
Step Eight Evaluate	What would you change next time? Maybe I could plan something that could actually work What would you improve next time? Try to maybe get the same length sticks so they could all actually be even.
Feedback - ask some other children what they thought?	Ruby = Maybe write a bit about your creation. And maybe Say something more than It went really good because (etc) and I really liked your creation :) Henrietta = I thought you had a great creation And you worked really well even though you only had one of you. Kalae = when you wrote what was challenging maybe right some more detail.

The best thing I liked about my drawing was that I put a lot of work into it and I kept on trying until it looked exactly like it.

If you were to do it again what would you change?

Camp Omatua 2016

Kayaks was one of my favourite things I did at camp. I was scared the first time because I have  never been kayaking before.	Here is picture of me wrapped in my towel out of the river because the river is freezing!
I am Kayaking for the first time in this photo and as you can see from my face I look really scared.	This is me coming out of the crazy slide. This was one of my favorite slides because it is really scary but at the same time it's fun:)
