One Friday Morning – Book Trailer

Sorry for the late post but this is a book trailer about One Friday Morning by Langston Hughes. A book trailer is like a movie trailer, where it gets you interested in something by previewing it to somebody via in this case, video. And if I am quiet, that’s because it dark and I forgot to do this so sorry! Anyways enjoy.

Week 4 Word Problems

WALT: Illustrate how I solve a mixture of problems.

Hello everybody, today I have some work fresh out of the oven with some word problems. Our WALT tells us how we are going to work out a problem.

For example we are trying to figure out how many apples are on the table. There are 8 apples on the table and someone puts another 4 apples onto the table. How many apples are there now? Aka 8+4. Now when we do this, I don’t just put 8+4=12. NO. Instead I do 8 apples + 4 apples = 10 apples, that is how specific you have to be. So enjoy this slide!

Mixed Word Problems

WALT: Illustrate the steps I used to solve each problem.

Today, I did some normal word problems, but the catch is that we don’t care about the answer, I mean we do but not today, we care about how to solve the problem. The working out has to be as specific so it makes sense, as some word problems can be so confusing and hard, but that’s how maths work, to solve problems that haven’t been solved yet. Anyway I hope you enjoy this slide right here!

Statistical Inventigations

WALT: Carry out a statistical investigation by using the PPDAC method.

Hello everybody and welcome to my blog for 2024! I will be posting here every week and I hope you will enjoy my posts for 2024!

This week, we learned about statistical investigations and collecting data is different questions in our class (Room 2). Which would help us to collect data based on asking questions to people.

We used the PPDAC method, which stands for Problem, Plan, Data, Analyse and Conclusion.

My question was “What is your favorite fizzy drink?” and the results were.. expected. Coke was 1st which was not surprising. 2nd was a three way tie with Sprite, Fanta and Lift. And in last place was Pepsi, which was expected.
