Enlargement in Geometry

Enlargement in Geometry

WALT: Enlarge pictures

Today in Maths we had to enlarge the lion. Everyone ha a different choice or they did the same thing. I drew this by following the squares and after counting I draw it in each square. I found this quite easy because I knew where to draw it but, but then it started to get difficult because I couldn’t draw it probably. Next I would like to enlarge a tree.

What's my why?

Making our own Tessellation

WALT: use symmetry to create tessellation

Today for maths, we had to create our own shape on the computer. It was kind of difficult to get the shape to fit next to each other. But once they did fit it was okay. We had to do this because for maths we are learning about tessellation and symmetry.

Tessellation

Today in maths we had to create our own tessellation. It took me the whole session to finally complete it because I didn't know what kind of pattern to do.

Showing emotion and feelings

For reading Miss Donaldson gave us a task to do. We had to go on this site and pick four different figurative language. I chose Showing emotion and feelings. I found it hard because I didn't know how to Show and tell.

Inference Task 1- Showing emotion and feelings

Nervous- Her cheeks turned bright red

He stood there like a statue with sweaty hands

It was her turn to go on stage and she got butterflies in her tummy

Perimeter

Today for maths I played Perimeter shoot game. The first time I played this it was hard because I didn't know perimeter but I kept playing and now I get it. As you can see I got 93%, I only missed one because I rushed it and I got it wrong. The next time I would like to learn is Area. 

Brooke Neal

Brooke Neal has achieved her goal. When she was in year 12 she set a goal for herself "Go to 2016 Rio Olympics" and she made it. While she was in Rio she made a chart with things she would to. One of them had "I am powerful." She said it to herself everyday while she was there. Her brother Shay is a hockey player too, She followed in his footsteps because she said that he was so inspiring to her. Brooke Neal has inspired me not to give up on my goals.

Acrostic Poem: Frustrated

F	ire formed fast throughout the house
R	oofs ran round in circles
U	nexpected ugliness in the sky
S	Trong smoke swallowed the town
T	win twirling tornado raced through the area
R	apid rain filled the ground
A	bandoned animals cried of hunger
T	rees tackled by the wind
E	agar eagles flew to safety
D	ark danger approached

Personification paragraph

At the Beach

A burning summer day, is a lovely day for the beach. Howling on a full moon is the sound of the wind. Twirling and whirling like mini sand storms. Gulping seashells into the mysterious blue sea. The sand swallowing my feet leaving footprints.  

Maths-Prototec

For Maths I did stage 7 and got 95%. I still need to learn how to convert big fractions into percentages and percentages into big fractions. The next time I do a stage 7 I will get 100% hopefully.

Tsunami

This week we are learning about Natural Disasters and Petuana and I are learning about Tsunamis.

Personification Poem

At the Beach

A burning hot day

At summer bay

The crashing waves

Raced across the sand

Boogie boards soared through the sea

Falling over makes it hard to see

Sinking to the bottom touching the cold floor
