Translating Geometry

Room 20 are exploring how to translate using google drawing, we are learning about Geometry and this is a picture of how I translated this shape. First I didn't know how to translate shapes but now I do, it was kind of hard at first but now it seems easy ,I have used a square for the shape that I had to translate. translating means that you move the shape to one place to another with out resizing it.

Camp TC Reflection.

“NO”!! why Kayaking first? “Isn’t that a great start to the day” THIS IS NOT THE DESTINATION, I WANTED TO REACH!!

Today was the day of the annual year 7 and 8 camp. My group the respectablez
were the first group to go kayaking.

“Sharks there are sharks in the water” I made that up because I didnt want to go in at this time of the morning, Do you want to know what time we went? well i’m gonna tell you anyway! IT WAS 9:30 AM.

But after all it was pretty fun. Having a partner didn’t really help although I had a blast and well that was my camp TC highlight.

Camp TC

The best thing about camp TC that I enjoyed was the Alligator Allie!I liked the Alligator Allie Because it allowed us to work together. The reason I liked this was because it was challenging and hard.

Taonga Time!!

On Friday after lunch, Rooms 18-22
gathered in the street for Taonga Time. Finally my teacher came forward and collected my group. My teachers name was miss Va'afusuaga.

As soon as we got to the field, Miss Va'afusuaga told us how to play a game called three bats; these bats were, a ping pong bat, a softball bat and a cricket bat.

Our team didn't really have a name, but Miss Va'afusuaga called us the A-Team, and the other the B-Team.

The Amazing Bug Hunt

One day in early November Room 17 and I went on a bug hunt to look for bugs. If you are wondering why we went to look for bugs it is because, it is part of our topic.

When we got there Miss Garden said to find a log, that my whole class could lift well part of it. We found a log and we tried to lift it but we couldn't lift it. It was too heavy for us on one side so we tried the other side and we saw heaps of slugs; snails spiders and worms. They were all going into the dark and back underneath the would.

Miss Garden walked into the grass and looked carefully. She was taking the grass and putting it in the dirt, then she chucked the rest of it at me and screamed, She went over to the other side and picked up a branch and we saw a snails larvae. After finding the snails, I found a tiger worm I went to Miss Garden and showed her the Tiger worm. She said it was because of the stripes so I went to look at it and tiny legs appeared on the bottom of little worms tummy.

Its not a Tiger worm!! Its a millipede! Miss Garden look, its not a Tiger worm its a Millipede.
