Swimming week: Reflection

This week and last week some people have gone to swimming lessons, and we've been set tasks to do while they're gone. I have completed 5 of the set tasks, which are:

• Budget Holiday In New Zealand
• Weekly Quiz
• The card trick using numbers, which is on another blog post
• Spanish animation
• Year 8 Yearbook page, which is in a pdf

We've had 5 Spanish lessons, where we've learned about numbers, how to have a conversation, days of the week, months of the year, and colours. In my next post, I will be showing you what I've learned. Leave a comment and let me know what you've been doing for the last two weeks at school

Mind Reading: Using Maths

Hello, this is our trick to "mind-reading" using maths. It's pretty simple, and

fun to use on your friends. This is using something called binary numbers, myself

and three others have been learning about them with our teacher. Leave a comment

and let me know if you've ever used this, and how it went.

African Art and Culture

Hey, for inquiry this term we are going to be learning about culture and art. For the past couple of weeks, we've been learning about Japan and Inuits. Now we're learning about  African art and culture. Later on, we'll be making our own art in a specific style from one of the three places we've been learning about. Let me know in the comments what type of art you think I should do!

Japanese art and culture

Hey, for inquiry this term we are going to be learning about culture

and art. For the past couple of days, we were with our home groups, now

we've moved on to the next group, where we've been learning about

Japanese art and culture. Next week we'll be learning about

African art and culture. Let me know in the comments what

your favourite style of Japanese art is.

Inuit - Inquiry

Hey, for inquiry this term we are going to be learning about culture

and art. For the past couple of days we've been with our home groups

learning about the cultures and what's it's like living where they do.

As you can see, I've been learning about Inuit, Canada's native people.

Here are some questions that we answered about them. Did you know that the
Inuit have no formal marriage ceremony or ritual? Let me know in the comments
what your favorite style of art is.

Algebra Evidence

Hello, at the end of last term we were working on something called linear equations, 

which is a part of algebra. We were working with patterns and predictions.

My favourite part of algebra is elementary algebra because you have to

work more with basic concepts. 

Let me know what your favourite part of maths is and why.

Double Trouble Radio

Hello, this is our radio that we've been working on this term. We've learned all about how to use

the mics and how to write a good script.

We spent a while writing our script, leave a comment and let me know what you think!
