My Mathletics Refection

Here is My Mathletics poster and my Mathletics reflection I hope you like it :[p

Reflection for Mathletics

Something I was pleased with was how My Mathletics design went because it was really fun making my own design and It was a little challenging because I didn't know what to do but then I got it. And now it looks great.

I really enjoyed learning how to do the design that I did

because I have never done that design before and it was really fun to learn it but it was easy and I wanted something hard but thats ok because it was fun!                  

Something I found hard was finding the center point because I forgot how to get it but Mr M showed us how to do it and the other part that was hard was trying to get the lines straight without mucking because whenever I did it the ruler would move so that was hard.

Something that made me think was what design I would do for my poster and I was a bit confused at first so that really made me think.

                 

Something I want to get better at is doing cooler designs and getting better at finding the center point.

         

(What can I do about it?) Practice and practice!

The Life Jackets ($1,000 )

                                                             
 Here is the $1,000 that I spent on life jackets for the school.
On the 1st  of April 2012 Last year I won an iPad 4 in a competition from the warehouse and $1000 dollars for the school. Things like that. So when I collected it I had to go to the Warehouse and collect it from there and when I walked in with my family I had to wait for a man that was going to dress up in a Harold the giraffe suit. I chose to spend it on life jackets because the school keeps asking for them when we go out of school going to camp or something. I hope you like it.
Please Comment :-)

Me!!!

Here are the awesome life jackets :-)

My Yachting & Kayaking Day 2

Here is My Yachting & kayaking reflection Day 2 I hope you like it :-)

My Yachting & Kayaking Reflection Day 2

Something I am pleased with was when me and Tracey  did really really well in the optimist yacht and especially when we were about to fall over.

                           

well I really enjoyed learning to use the tiller in every way I could because it was really hard at first but then it was easy as and now i'm never scared.                 

Something I found hard was Kayaking back to sure from being under the bridge and it was a very long way because I had to go by the yachts instead of going by the kayaks.

Something I found hard was Kayaking back to sure from being under the bridge and it was a very long way because I had to go by the yachts instead of going by the kayaks.

                 

Something I want to get better at the kayaking because my legs always hurt and it is because I am doing something wrong and because you use that muscle in your keg.

         

(What can I do about it?)

Try harder.

The Taj Mahal

   Here is My Taj Mahal Writing that we have all been working on I hope you like it.    
       
   The Taj Mahal

The Taj Mahal is a fantastic building in India ( Agra )  and it took 22 years to build and 20,000 men to build it they built it in the 17th century ( 1600s ). Your not aloud to drive through the gates because they want to keep the place looking beautiful so now the King and queen are laying together in the Taj Mahal. the Queens name is Mumtaz Mahal and the Kings name is Shah Jahan. the king and Queen were happily living together until the Queen died during birth of a newborn. From then on the king was very heartbroken to see his beautiful Queen die and so he got 20,000 men to build him the Taj Mahal so when  22 years of building went past The king had his wife buried under the ground in the Taj Mahal. Then a few years latter the king died and then He got buried under the ground next to his beautiful wife Mumtaz Mahal. In the Taj Mahal Grounds there is a symmetry.

Here are some of my pictures of the Taj Mahal that I drew. I hope you like it.

                     Caving

We are all now heading to the rope cave. As we walk thru the smelly old wet cave I start to smell the damp smell of the cave including the insects that are in it like wetas and glow worms on the roof of the cave.

I go down the rope scared as anything & having Ms Hill directing me down. “oh” I feel a rock so I stand on it and I look down and its the bottom of the whole. “Yahh” its the bottom of the whole so we keep moving. And as I look up to see a weta my foot gets cold instantly and so I look down to see why “eww” my foot is in the wet soggy mud and it starts to sink down. I try to pull it up but no luck yet so I try harder and it comes out all covered in gooey mud. “Oh”!!!!! we have reached the end of the Smelly cave and now we have to  go back to camp :-(. “Woah” it’s pitch black now  and we can't see anything  out here but luckily we have  torches so  now we  can see:-). Are we going the right way I wonder because we all can't see the vans yet. “Woah look at the vans I say to Richard behind me the lights on the vans are glowing in the dark and it looks like a monster shape. We start to hop into our vans in the pitch black cold night we finally start to drive off heading back to camp. We get to camp before you know it and all go have toasty warm  showers. After our showers we have free play until  tea is ready. After tea we go to bed.

Tonight is our first night at Camp Kaitawa and we are going to do a night detective challenge.

Yay!!!!!! we finally arrive at the night detective challenge we all get out of our vans and head to  the bush scared as anything. We start to go into the bush near Michael's grave.The first word we see is the word Michael...... and so we keep going and then it says Noonan welcomes you to Camp Kaitawa I may return.... and as soon as Crighton saw the word return he ran back towards me and said “nah  I’m getting out of here and so I pushed him forward so he kept going. After that we saw another word and it said on a full moon night...... Have fun. And now its over we have to walk back to camp on the side of the road ‘Wow that was fun” Crighton said to our whole team.
