Explaining an Explantion
This week in writing we've been learning how to write explanations. So far we have been writing a short explanation on the Sun. We started writing out an introduction to... well introduce the subject.This is done by using short not completely detailed sentences. We then moved on to choosing 3 things about the sun to write a paragraph on.

Golf Course... For Science!?
Yes... You heard me right.
In kete, we are learning about forces, and for our assessment, we have been instructed to create a mini golf course. Why? Because to play mini golf, you need to push the ball by hitting it with a putt/club, 'push' is a force. See the connection?
Molly and I are working together to create our golf course. We have created a google drawing showing how we want our course to layout with minor details.
(The purple lines are the main paths to take and the blue lines are slopes ((Because we are mean)). The bright yellow lines are police tape... Don't ask)
The hardest part so far about making this is not letting our imaginations go wild. Because Molly and I can be so creative we had to realise that we actually have to make the course and make sure it's something we can make in 5 hours (The time limit we have). For example, our first plan was to make a house in the middle of the course. We then realised we can't make this in the time we have. Our next steps are to figure out how to make and then make the course.

Trial and Error
Learning Outcome:
We are learning to solve a problem by trial and error
Success Criteria
We are learning to solve a problem by trial and error
Success Criteria
- I will have tried different ways of solving the problem
- I will check to see if there is more than one way
- I will have a correct answer
The Problem
We were given 7 cards each labelled - 3,=,5,x,7,8. We needed to make an equation with these that is true and use ALL the cards
Reflection - We were completely wrong with how we tried to sort out the equation. Rather than a _+_x_= equation it was a _+_=_x_ equation. So really from the beginning, we had no idea what we were doing!
