Maths Challenge

LI: to find the most efficient strategies to solve this problem.

Today for maths we had to solve a maths problem but we had to follow a rule. 

Rule: x 3 mince 1 

we had to times the amount of hours by 3 and then mince 1 from the answer. 

eg. If hemi and his whanau fished for 6 hours how many fish would that bring home?

3 x 6 = 18 - 1 = 17

So if he fished for 10 hours then you time the hours by 3. So if 3 x 10 is 30 then you must take away 3 from 

the answer. 30 - 1 = 29.

Word cline

LI: To expand our vocabulary with powerful words.

For this task me and my partner made a Word Cline. a Word Cline are 5 words that are in order from simple and boring words to powerful words. the words that are in the word cline are similar they mean the same thing put sound different.

These are some examples of a powerful and boring.

Example 1 . This Morning is was cold.

Example 2.  This morning was so chilly that I had to drink a hot cup of coco.

Example 3. This morning it was so icy that i felt like i couldn’t move in the cold

 

weather.

As we keep adding to this word cline words go to boring to more powerful. they can help build our vocabulary and gives more meaning to what we write when we use powerful words. The words go from boring to more powerful as they go up. 

 

Outside the box

LI: To think outside the box, becreative and finish the picture.

For your distance learning art we are doing digital art. Our task was to use the random line that was givein we had to try and think of what it could be or look like we had to be creative, and think out side of the box. The picture I made was an octopus I moved the shape and different angles to think of something to make. the rules for this activity are  that you can rotate the shape and change it orientaion but we can not resize the shape.

For one of our distance learning task we had to create a venn diagram that come pares life in New Zealand in the year 1870 and what it is like know in 2020. I worked colaboratively with a friend to complete this task. Some of the differences that we pointed out in our DLO are the clothing women in 1870 were expected to wear dress's and skirts but now in 2020 it is now optional to wear a dress or skirt we have a full wardrobe of different variety of clothing. Me and my partner also had to point out some of the simalrites that the both have in common. One thing they both had in common was the transport in 1870 they still used busses, trains, cars, ect. to travel around.

Poetry/Extra reasearch

 For this activity we had to do extra research and make a DLO that includes, Map of Japan, a description of the structurre of a haiku, and interesting facts about haiku history. for the slide I had to write about Japan and Japans history.

The Scructer of a haiku is called the 5-7-5 triplets and the aproved form of haiku. there are 3 lines the first having 5 syllables in them the secound having 7 and the last line having 5 again. The haiku was not known as a haiku untill the 19th century back then it was known as a hokku.
