Math in lockdown

For my maths this week our goal was to use a broad range of strategies to solve addition and subtraction problems with whole numbers and or decimals.

We had to make a screencastify showing how to do Rounding and Compensating,
Equal Adjustments or Reversibility I choose Equal adjustment.

Next I had to choose a practice question out of all he ones we did I choose 7652 - 1990.

After that I had to make the screencastify solving the question of we choose which we choose, with one of the three strategies that we picked.

I made a slide and screen recorded it using screencastify.

The next day I had to go onto a video call and show my group and teacher my screencastify. (I just showed my slide)

Here is my slide.

I hope you enjoyed it and if you didn't already know how to do equal adjustments with whole numbers I hope you've learned something new?

writing learning in lock down

For writing this week we had to get a paragraph from our report our goal is to
Use reference sources to check meanings and find new words. 

Then we had to edit/rework our chosen paragraph.

Here is mine.

Before:
In 1885 Kate Sheppard founded WCTU (women's christian temperance union). Two years later Kate Sheppard became the leader of it’s suffrage campaign. The goal for the WCTU was to protect the home from all evil influences and strengthen family life. It’s main objective was to help stop abstinence from alcohol.

Creativity!!

For our P.B.L lesson today we learnt about creativity.
we watched a video about innovative and adaptive thinkers.
people who are more adaptive try to do thing more better but people who are more innovative try to do thing more differently.
I think that I am more adaptive how ever I am still innovative.
The video also talked about divergent and convergent thinkers.
a divergent thinker can list heaps of good Ideas and a convergent thinker can narrow all those ideas into one.
I personally think that I can list heaps of ideas but I am more of a convergent thinker.
with a buddy we also had to list 100 uses for a paper clip. we also got a piece of paper we had to individually draw what 4 squares and circles could turn into.
Are you innovative or adaptive?
Are you more of a convergent think or are you a divergent thinker?

P.B.L collaboration

For the past two weeks in P.B.L we've been working on games for our fair. 

this week as well as finishing our products we had to do team exercises yesterday we looked at communication witch involved 2 fun team communicating game. Today we did collaboration. our task is to wright a blog post on how we've collaborated as a team. We need to wright three thing that we've done well.

-I think my group has showed collaboration by:

listening to each other thoughts and Ideas this has help us make our product better and it has also made it easier to collaborate.

-we also work to each other strengths witch also help make our product easier and faster

for e.g Pacis was our recourse guy and a great painter, Charlie was really good with building and paint, Grace was really good at helping paint the boxes, and I was good at doing the computer work and painting.

-we did really good with making team decisions and if we didn't agree on something we talked it out as a team

Next time we need to work on doing things as a whole.

How do you collaborate?
