Swimming Competition


This is the picture of the inter-school swimming team. I was in free-style, back-stroke and relay B. In free style I came 4th which is very good for me since I haven't came 4th before. I came 6th in the back-stroke and my team came 3rd in the relay.

Factors and multiples problem



This is my voice thread that I have made with Me, Ben & Hank. It is about the factors and multiples problem that we had to work out. I found this work interesting because I haven't seen a problem like this also at the start I there was "triangular number" I wasn't sure of it at first but I remembered what it meant later on. My next step is to get more puzzles like this but gradually getting harder.

Comparing Characters

         
My Reflection
I was learning to compare characters. I compared Jesse and Leslie from Bridge to Teribithia.
It was easy because I already knew a lot about the characters.
My next step is to think about who I am more like and what I have in common with these characters.

Hand-Shakes Solution


We have been working on a problem about how many hand-shakes there would be if some mathematicians met and shook hands with each other once. I found it tricky before my teacher gave me a clue to use algebra. My next step is to find more problems like this to challenge myself.

Making and Breaking Popplet

I was making and breaking the number 20 and putting it in to a popplet.  I think it was easy because it was a very easy number to make and break.  It was easy because I already had a lot of equations in my head.  My next step is to make it a higher number to make and break.

My Kennings Poem


I was learning how to write a Kennings Poem.  I found it hard because I had to find lots of things I was good at.  It was hard because I couldn't think of enough things for a while.  I could get some help who know me well so I could do better.  My next step is to write more poems so I'm good at them.
