Mobile Puzzles | Maths

I created two different types of mobile puzzles.

Mobile puzzles are when you use different types of shapes to make a number or both sides are the same number.

For example: the number im adding up to is 32. The shapes im using are circles and triangles, so half of 32 is 16 which means that there are 4 circles and two triangles because 4 circles are worth 4 and triangles are worth 8. So both of them add up to make 32.

The second example is when both sides are worth the same amount and not adding up to anything. For example: both sides are worth 80, so the first side has two trapiziums and one heart. The heart is worth 20 and the trapizuim is worth 30.

The second side has two squares and one circle. The two squares are worth 10 each and the one circle is worth 60. So both sides add up to 80.

I need to make more harder ones for my teachers so there is more math that they need to do.







Line Art | Maths

I created a maths art called line art.

Line art is is a kind of art which a bunch of straight lines that makes up to one curve line. You will need a ruler and a pencil so you can make the lines look straight.

You need to connect the lines together which is called the intersection. The intersection means one thing meets another like the lines.

Next time I need to draw straighter axis with a ruler.

Here is an example of what my line art looks like:

SSR Selfie | Earthquakes

I read a book about earthquake which was written by Rachel Walker.

Earthquakes are a natural disaster which can cause the ground to shake and buildings and other stuff to fall to the ground and seaquakes are caused in the ocean to make big amounts of water.

One fact about earthquakes is: Engineers are always working on safety by studying the effects of an earthquake and all the damages caused on buildings.

I enjoyed this activity because I am learning more about earthqaukes.

Te Reo | What is This?

I compeleted a Maori task.

I answered different questions like: He ... tenei, He ... tena and He ... tera. For example: He aha tenei. Your response should be: He pene tenei.

Next it was questions like: He ... tena. For example the question would be: He aha tena. Then your response should be He painaporo tena.

The last questions were like: He ... tera. For example the questions would say: He aha tera.And your response would be: He wharepuni tera.

I enjoyed this task because I learnt a lot Maori words for places and objects.


HPE | Fortnite Dances

I completed the HPE task. This task is where you have to do any exercise challenge.

The exercise challenge I did was the fortnite dances. 

The easiest ones were the floss, reanimated, groove jam, the fresh, the tidy and the disco dance. And the hardest ones were the electro shuffle, squat kick, hottenany, the robot and flapper.

I enjoyed this activity because it got me really energized.
