My Maths Review For This Year

This year for maths I was in the Kermits, the thing enjoyed the most about maths this year was drawing 3D shapes on isometric paper.

The thing that I found hard to grasp was how to make decimal remainders of a number in division algorithms.

The thing I would like to learn the most next year is how to measure the diameter of round shapes.

The thing I got the most out of IXL was mainly revision that strengthened my understanding about decimals, algorithms and Pascal's triangle.

Altogether I really liked maths this year.

Here are some photos about my maths this year.

My High Jump Video

For athletics this year we finally get to do high jump which is so awesome. I really enjoy high jump although I can only do the scissor kick jump yet. I hope I do well at athletics on the day. I might even try make a montage video of me at athletics day.

Here is a photo of me doing high jump.

This Weeks' Different i Drive Session

Today for i Drive I did some painting on our groups impact mural with Miles and Cooper. We are painting a mural about Moana which means the sea in Maori. We had already painted the bottom of the sea a dark blue so we blended the paint into lighter and lighter shades of blue until we reached the spot where the water meets the sky. We did not do any more painting after that.

The Learning Power I used was Curiosity because I kept asking questions about painting and blending techniques.

The skill of play I used was problem solving because I found a solution to every problem we came across.
