Mangahigh Maths Reflection


WALT: Calculating angles around a point

For this task some questions were easy, and some were hard. Some of the questions that I got were hard like, what was the angle between two angles, those questions were hard. So maybe in my spare time I could work on the angles between angles. 



Reciprocal Reading

This story was about a big boy named Benny, and his friend that jumped into the water and would splash people that would kayak. Benny's friend didn't wanna jump into the water, so then Benny pushed his friend into the water because Benny's friend didn't want to jump in. So then then one of the mums from the kayak, took her son, and tried to push Benny away at the same time. They both ran away, Benny cried and they both stopped, and Benny's friend hugged him.

Shoe Tower



For this task my group had to stack our shoes and try to make it stack as tall as possible. My shoes were the black huaraches. My favorite part of the task was stacking up the shoes and building the base of the tower. My least favorite part of the task was taking my shoes off.

What Is Collaboration?





This is what we did for Cyber smart, what we did was we had to find out what collaboration means and what it does to people. One of the challenging things about this task was that we had to make up rules about collaboration, but one of the things that I liked was making up myself what collaboration meant to me.

The Lost Underground - Wk 7 Term 3




For the task this week I did answering questions and reading the book to answer. This task was sort of easy, but one of the hardest parts was actually reading it and finding the answer to it. I had to use some of my inferring skills to find the answers. Maybe in my spare time I could actually try again and do this kind of task again.

Maths Reflection



WALT convert units of measurements.

SC:

  • Identify unit of measurement
  • Convert measurement between mm, cm, m, km
  • Use the conversion scale

For maths this week I have done the AWS worksheet. Which is basically work that is given on a sheet. For this weeks task I did convert units of fractions. I found this task a bit challenging because I didn't really know how to do it. I found the first questions easy because I knew how to measure it by the millimeters, centimeters, meters, and kilometers. I found those questions easy, but then it moved onto the harder questions then that is when it got difficult. Maybe in my spare time I could work on some of these questions so I can get better at them.
