Accomplishable Algebra

We are learning to identify the rule for a pattern of numbers

Multiplication practice:

56 ➗ 8 = 6            72 ➗ 9 =8                44 ➗ 11 =4

45 ➗ 9 =  5            64 ➗ 8 = 8               56 ➗ 7 =8

35 ➗ 5 = 7            144 ➗ 12 =12             27 ➗ 3 =9

82 =  64                     2 =   81                       2 =     49         

62 =    36  

Finding the rule: What are the next numbers in the pattern? What is the rule for the pattern? 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 4 7 10 13 16 19 22 The rule is:N x 3 + 1 The 20th number in the pattern is 61

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 4 9 14 19 24 29 34

The rule is:N x 5-1

The 100th number in the pattern is 499

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 1 8 27 64 125 216 343`

The rule is:N x N x N

The 10th number in the pattern 1000

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 15 22 29 36 43 50

The rule is:N x 7 +1

The 100th number in the pattern is701

On the first day of school we had an Immersion Assembly.Every team had to show what they are going to study this term, The topic for this term is Move Ya Body which relates to Health and Fitness.Team 1’s video relates to making sure you get some sleep,and stay healthy.

I am really looking forward to be learning more about Health and Fitness this term.

Equivalent Fractions 2

Today I have posted My equivalent Fractions presentation. In this activity we had to work out how many lollies there were altogether, we also had to chose on of the docs in the pyramid to complete. The doc i completed is in another post. Hope you enjoy.

Equivalent Fractions

Equivalent Fractions!

We are learning to add and subtract fractions with like and unlike denominators.

What is ½ of ¼?1/8

What is ⅓ of ⅕?1/15

What is ½ of 20?10

What is ⅕ of 20?4

What is ⅓ of 30?10

What is ⅘ of 20?16

½ + ½ =1

5/12 + 4/12 =3/4

½ + ¼ =3/4

⅓ + ⅙ =1/2

¼ + ⅛ =3/8

¼ + ⅝ =7/8

¼ + 3/16 =7/16

⅕ + 1/30 =7/30

Levi has ¾ of a bag of lollies. If he is given another 3/12 of a bag, what fraction of a bag will he have?  1 whole

If there were 32 lollies in the whole bag, how many lollies does Levi have? 32

Bob has a 3 3/4 metre of length of wood. He cuts off 2 1/3 metres.

I really enjoy playing sports my favourite sport to play in Netball. The first year I started
playing netball for a team at Pt England was in year 7.When I was in year 4,5 and 6 my
friends keep telling me to play but I didn't. And then when I finally played they were
excited.

As a student I am really looking forward to learning new things at school,I am also looking
forward to becoming a house captain.I am looking forward to meeting new people. Lets

Athletics Day 2017

WALT - Take care of the little things in our writing

Last week on the 10th of November 2017, Pt England had their annual school athletics day.Once a year Pt England always has there School athletics day.There are different kind of activities that the whole school participates in.

When you first start at Pt England you are given a house colour and every athletics day you have to dress up in that house  colour.When I started Pt England I got given a house colour which was Hikianalia (Yellow). I didn't have any yellow things to wear so I chose to wear all

the colours.

You are also split with your year group and every activity that you go to is in your own year group. I was with my year 7 girls. The first activity that we went to was softball throw and the last activity that we did was Javelin.

My favourite activity was relays.In relays you have a pipe that is your house colour. And you have to run to where ever you have to run to and then you run back and give it to you buddy and they run and do it. And the first group to be sitting down with there hands on there heads are the winners.

At the end of athletics we went back to our normal classes. When we got back to team 5, The whole block had Ice Blocks. Next week on the 23rd of November me and some other students have got the oppurtunity to go to the Interzone athletics.

Immersion Assembly

Immersion Assembly

Today was the first day of Term 4, Monday the 16th of October.And when had an Immersion Assembly. Our Immersion Assembly was all about Musical Madness. To start our Assembly of we had Mr burt,Mr Wiseman,Mr J, Mr Wiseman and Mrs Nua sing a song for us called “Musical Madness Saves The Day” Then after that it was Team 1 time to shine,

For their item they were playing cards, and as they were playing cards they were listening to music and whatever music they listened to their emotions started to change. For Example: If there was a Happy song playing there emotion would be Happy.

Next was Team 2. First Miss Gaston was playing the Ukelele and singing "The lion sleeps Tonight" and then the rest of the teachers came up on the stage and started using there instruments. So they were basically using different kind of instruments to create one whole song

Next Team 3 shared there movie with us. There movie was about lip syncing to all kinds of different songs.The teachers that were Lip syncing was, Mr Moran,Miss Davis,Miss King and Miss Edie
2
After that was Team 4.The name of Team 4 item was Make Car rides more fun. And in there movie they had all of the teachers taking turns in a car and singing to the songs that were playing in the car.

And last but no least was the amazing Team 5. Now for Team 5 item all the teachers in team 5 got together and was watching a movie. And as they were watching the movie different kinds of songs were playing. So they were trying to figure out what was going on in the movie with just the sound


So that was Our amazing Immersion Assembly, I hope you enjoyed reading it and please leave a comment.
