For maths, we have to do the paralympic maths question cards. For the third day, we had to look at the swimming results from different categories, and sort them from fastest to slowest.
I enjoyed getting to sort them because it was easy. I didn't find this challenging. To be BTB (Better Than Before) I could have typed my answers for the first row (S12, S10, S13, S9, S11) so they were easier to read.
For Maths we had to complete two challenge cards. This is my post for the first card, as I need a partner for the second card. On the challenge card there was a question we had to answer: What other information could you use to create a graph? You could make a graph about transportation, pets, eye colour, nationality.
I enjoyed getting to make the graph as making graphs is fun. I didn't find it challenging because google sheets make everything really easy to use. To be BTB (Better Than Before), I could have made it on paper.
Today we had to write five questions about lockdown and the delta variant, we would ask Jacinda Ardern or Dr. Ashley Bloomfield if we had the chance. I found this very boring because I couldn't think of many questions.
1. Why didn't we keep our borders closed? We would have never got the delta variant then.
2. Why is the delta variant so contagious?
3. How exactly does the vaccination work?
4. How long until NZ is fully vaccinated?
5. When will lockdown end?
Because the Olympics have just happened, we did a research on one of the countries competing in the Olympics. Mrs. Gibson gave us all a letter (I got 'M') and we had to research a country beginning with that letter. I chose the Marshall Islands.
I enjoyed getting to draw the black-footed cat, though I think it looked nicer in the sketch. I found it challenging to find interesting facts. To be BTB (Better Than Before) I could make the words easier to read.
