Reflecting Shapes

WALT:Rotate, Reflect & Translate shapes

In today's math class we started learning about shapes and seeing them from different perspectives. We talked about how it would look like if we rotated shapes or how it would look in a reflection. Carrying on from our maths learning I then did a 10 question quiz about resizing shapes. Here are two questions from the quiz I did. The first pictures is a question I found easy because I knew about it. The second picture I have is a question I found difficult

Happy Sapate Tamai

HAPPY FATHERS DAY!!!
This Weekend I celebrated Fathers day with my family. We started our day off by having a delicious breakfast at home. Then we went for a drive to the cemetery to visit my beloved grandpa. After spending time with my pa we then headed to Sam Woos to celebrate fathers day. Last but not least after we ate we went to Carls Junior to have dessert. Overall I really enjoyed the fathers day weekend with my family. I was a good time for us to bond and spend time with one another. 

Happy Fathers day to all the fathers out there in the world. Also happy fathers day to the mothers who have to play the mother and father role in there child's life. I hope you all had an amazing day with your children and family. Happy Fathers Day! Ofa Atu xo

Geometry Rockets

  
In maths class today we focused on Geometry and seeing things from a variety of perspectives. We were given the task to create a rocket out of cubes and take various photos of the rocket from a side, front , top and perspective view. We then put our images into our presentation. Take a look through this presentation to find out more about views and perspectives.

Today in Literacy class we were given the task to post our advertisement poster plan on to our blog. We were spilt into groups and given different posters. Our task was to state down the things that were good about the poster. Each group presented there work to the class and told stated what they all wrote down.

Geometry Work

WALT:1) Draw a 2D representation of a 3D model
2) Draw a plan for the side, front and top view of a 3D model.

In today's math class we started doing Geometry.  We were given the task to draw a 2D representation of a 3D rocket made out of cubes. A part of our task was to take pictures of the rocket from 3 different perspectives (Top, Front & Side) views. We then put our photos into our presentation and carried on with our work on Geometry.

While we were doing our geometry work Mrs Ilaoa took photos of the class doing there work so we had evidence to put on our blog. I look forward do doing geometry this week because it is something I have never done before and I am willing to learn about it. 

Here is a photo of my groups work and what we did.

Reconstruction Explanation
