Math Rich Task

For math we were learning how to handle data. The learning intention was to borrow from using subtracting. I mostly did the work because I found the work interesting. The best thing I like about myself is that if I find the the work interesting I will let the pen write and let my head think. Mostly I should think about work everyday thinking about math and the tasks that our teacher instructs.

Hypothesis

Sanujan - I think that I would be best at test 1 because my eyes send messages
to my brain fast.

John - I think that I could be good at test 2 because I think that I am great at
listening.

2	18.6	11.9
3	13.6	21.4
Total	42.6	47

Evaluation:

Sanujan : My hypothesis was incorrect because according to the graph I was great at
tactile which is test 1 I was surprised that my connection from my eyes to my brain is not
as fast as through touch.

John -  My hypothesis was wrong because I expected that I had really great ears but I actually don’t. The graph had surprised me when I was excellent on test 3 because my ears sent messages to my brain faster than my eyes open.  What I found surprising was that my partner had faster reflexes than me.

This week for inquiry, we learnt about human reactions. We had a small challenge

that included simply a ruler, a partner, and our reactions. Our task was to attempt

to grab a ruler as fast as possible. We were given 3 different reactions to test.

Visual, where we had to grab the ruler just by watching it. No count down, go or

anything. Nextwas aural, where we had to close our eyes, and where only told "GO"

for when we could attempt to grab the ruler. No countdown, no looking, no

touching, just a simple go. Finally, was touch. We closed our eyes, no words,

just a tap on the shoulder letting us know when to grab. The partner that I was

given was Tiava, and we had a lot of fun working together. What we needed to do

next was graph our data. Although to make it even better, we were to group up

with another pair and graph all of our data in one big graph. So for this, we chose

to work with Jack and Tiava. We had a lot of fun all working together, and in the end, made a pretty great graph.

Life 1870

This week we were learning about the jobs in 1870. We compared Male and Female. What we found out was that not all women can work with Male. The interesting thing I thought was nasty was the women having there own male boss. All the information was kind of hard because we didn't know where to get the information from, but we still got the answers from the computers. 

Anne Charlotte

Today we were learning about Charlotte Anne. We created this slide because how Charlotte Anne didn't want to be like one of those ladies that stayed home and did housework while the men went out to work. Charlotte Anne could of showed that women are more capable of doing things better than men. I thought that men were actually much more clever than women but I was wrong, women are better than men. Charlotte Anne was passionate about having a better future and doing what she wants to do instead of someone telling what to do. Charlotte Anne is a leader because she would never get stood down by anyone and she has inspired me.

Samoan language learning

This week is Samoan language week. We created a google slide about how to understand the days of the week in Samoan. We found this language kind of hard but we still tried to get the understanding of pronouncing it properly. The google slides that my partner and I created was to tell you what the days of the week mean. Samoan language week is important to celebrate because all the other languages that we celebrate must be all celebrated. All the languages mean something like if they are from the same country they celebrate it in a different way from anyone else.

Samoan Language week

Today for samoan language week my partner Josh collaborated with me to learn about Samoan language week. We created this google presentation to shThen how is the ava drink is made. ow you about the culture of samoa and to talk about the Ava ceremony. The saying of samoan language week is called Vaiaso o le Gagana Samoa. We talked about the what is an Ava ceremony and the ceremony begins with a welcome by crossing their legs in a circle or a semicircle.

Tech reflection

Today for tech we were finishing our personal treasure box. Our art we had to draw was to make sure that it is traditional to the Waka huia. There were differences between contemporary and traditional.  I found my art very interesting because usually I never draw like that. Ms Telefoni gave us instructions about what we do when we are finished. The most fun thing I found cool in tech was the arts we can draw and the work we can finish.
