Probability, Maths Learning Area

August 21	Maths Buddy	Today I went on experimenting with probability and watched the video to get a better idea of probability as it was year nine.	Finding out how to work out probability.	N/A	Starting on the worksheet tomorrow.
August 21	Workspace	Today I played who wants to be a millionaire probability version	I won $1,000,000 which means I got every question right.	N/A	Going on more activities.
August 21	Maths hub.	Today I went onto probability a played a game called Dice duels	I got most of the answers right but it doesn’t tell me my score	N/A	Finding some more activities.
August 22	Maths Hub	Today I played a game called lucky 16.	The aim was to get the  lowest score as possible and I got 66 out of 16	N/A	Getting a lower score next time.
August 22	Teacher workshop	Today we did lots of things on probability they were the likelihood of an event happening, probability continuum, Tree diagram and PO, S	We learned about the likelihood of getting a heads or tails and the probability continuum with a ratio from 0 - 1	N/A	Practicing this.
August 23	Maths hub	Today I watched a video on Predicting the theoretical probability of an event	N/A	N/A	N/A
August 23	Workspace	Today I went on the rock paper scissors challenge	I haven’t found anything yet but My prediction is that rock is the winning strategy.	N/A	Finding the right answer
August 23	Maths Buddy	Today I watched the video on tree diagrams and read the worksheet	I Learnt how to use tree diagrams	N/A	Starting the answers
AUgust 30	Teacher workshop	Today we watched a video on the Monty Hall problem we then unpacked the problem	N/A	N/A	Finding the pattern for the problem
August  30	The game show working out	Today Lily and I got all 15 tests done	We worked out that you have a higher chance if you change because 70% of the times we changed we won the car.	N/A	N/A
August 31	Maths Buddy	Today I did Probability basics	I got 58% or 14/24	N/A	Getting a better score
August 31	Maths Hub	Today I watched a video on  Use tree diagrams to explore possible outcomes for a sequence of events	N/A	N/A	N/A

This is my timetable on all of my probability learning I have been doing over the past 2 weeks I have found all of it challenging but I feel like I am getting better and achieving my goals so hopefully at the end of this area in maths I will be able to work out problems that I would have been able to before this.

Fish In aa Tree Novel Study

For the first two terms of 2017, we had been reading a book called Fish in a Tree we also had to use information that we got from the text to complete this novel study which is the same slideshow above this will tell you about the main events in the story.

A Moment in Time

For last half of the term, we have been doing this literacy task every morning for 10 minutes called a moment in time for this we had to find three significant events that happened on that date in history and then we had to choose one we wanted to learn more about and then write our findings on the other side of the slide we then finished off by finding a photo of the event, This is my slide above↑↑↑↑

Timbernook Room 10 EOTC

On Monday this week room 10 went on a trip out to timber nook by Stoney Creek ranch, We did lots of fun activities like building human bodies out of things that we found around the area and cooking marshmallows over the camp fire. We also had a lot of free time so we could go exploring in the forest we found rope swings that went out over the marshy creek and there was also a tunnel in a fallen tree, My favourite part was when Evan and I found the tunnel in the fallen tree that was only just big enough to crawl through.

Here are some pics from our trip↘↘↘↘↘↘

Challenging Part of the course

The hardest part of the course for me is the last part where you run through a flat grassy reserve and the grass and ground is  really soft which makes harder to run.

My goal for Tuesday (The race day) is to get in at least the top 15 out of the boys.

Passion Projects, Finished Product

Over the last three weeks we have been doing passion projects again but this time it was to do with healthy bodies and strong minds. Evan and I both share a passion for surf life saving and we were trying to raise awareness of how hard it is for a surf life guard to see swimmers when the aren't between the flags and then end up drowning. So this is our slide on surf life saving.

Passion Project Plan - Surf Lifesaving

Evan & Luca

Surf Life Saving

We met each other this year but recognising each other's faces the main thing that clicked between us was  that we had competed  against each other for at least 4 years in surf life saving me (Evan) competing for ocean beach and luca for waimarama as we  both know a lot about surf life saving

For the 1st week we are going to be planning what we are going to do with surf life saving  and for the 2nd week we are going to make everything happen . third week we are going to get props and practise/present  are project .

We want to show people how much hard work it takes to get your lifeguard bronze and the ways people need to train to get ,the gear they use and more and how much work they put into keeping people save at the beach.

Over the first three weeks of the term we are doing passion projects again Evan and I are collaborating because we both share a passion of surf lifesaving here is our plan.
