Food for thought.

Today this time we learnt about food for thought. Adele, our teacher for this session taught us about how much meat we're supposed to have, and what we should eat occasionally. We ordered sugars in the drink from less to most, and sorted out which cereals have most and less sugars in them. Today I found out a lot about what we eat.

Flipsnack - Origami.

Our activity this week with Ms Paton was about FlipSnack and how to create it. We had to pick a presentation in our folders from this year. I did my one about my elective, origami.

Vending Machine Problem.

For this this problem I used multiplication and my fraction knowledge. I was working with Wiremu and we managed to do 2 strategies. The second strategy was the quickest. I came up with another problem you could try figure out - In 1 lollie there are bag 11 pieces of sour grape bubblegum. The other 1/2 of the bag are strawberry flavoured. How much strawberry flavoured bubblegum are there?

Cybersmart + Smart Relationships - Privacy.

This time for smart relationships we did privacy. I wrote about things you have to avoid before signing up for social media sites. When you sign up, make sure you ask your parents first, and also make sure your age is allowed.

Cybersmart + Smart Relationships - Smart Money.

Smart Money by Anthony Paula Peau Mapalei Tui on GoAnimate
Today Ms Paton talked to us about how to handle scamming. We watched a video from Paul Henry and how he busted a scammer. Scamming is dangerous because it can lead to viruses on your phone or computer. The number 1 rule is to not giveaway any personal information. e.g; Address, Credit card details, and don't giveaway your name.

Speech Plan.

For writing we had to plan for speeches that would be happening throughout the whole school. My speech is based on role models and my point of view of what we should think of them. I still need to finish off my opinion and need to give an one more explanation.

Chicken, Fox and Corn.

In maths we did a question sort of riddle. We had to take the chicken, fox and corn across the river but however you can only take one. If you take the chicken, then the fox, you can't because of the fox will   eat the chicken. But if you take the corn then chicken, that won't work either because the chicken will eat the corn. So that was the question we had to answer.
