One-step addition and subtraction equation

This was a screenshot I took when i got 100% on my 1 step equation quiz. It was very easy doing this quiz because it was only addition and subtraction in this quiz. Next time I am hoping to do another quiz, one much more challenging.

This morning I did a prototec test to see if I have accelerated in my basic facts. I have not accelerated and I am really disappointed. Going from 97% to 77% is not good at all. To accelerate in basic facts I am going to learn some more about fractions and percentage because that is what I struggle on. I also wish to get a higher score than 77% as well.

Social media - Youtube

Youtube is a very popular site that I use because of what it can do. It can be used to watch any type of video, such as music videos, funny videos and educational videos. Sometimes I use it to watch the video blog of the youtube channels I subscribed to.  Youtube can be watched on anything, like a phone,tablet,computer and ps4, specifically anything connected to the internet.  You can also use it to write what you think about the video you just watched.  When you are bored at home you can watch youtube to make you smile.

Importance of fire drills

Why is there a need for a fire drill/safety?

Fire drills should be common all around the world. Everyone should have a practise fire drill every once and awhile. You can have fire drills at home and at school, for the safety of students and staff at school or small families in their houses. There are lot’s of reasons why fire drills are important, and here are three examples.

Firstly,people die in fire related incidents because they didn’t know how to react in that type of situation. So having a fire drill can teach someone how to react in a real fire, and know where to go when it happens.  Fire drills can also teach a person how stay calm in a fire situation and know what to do when this comes to be apart of their lives.

Secondly, fire drills can be a life lesson to everybody, because most people panic in a fire situation. So a fire drill will also teach them how to be confident in a real fire situation. When a fire has started in a place where you are then you will be confident enough to do what you are suppose to do.

Lastly, knowing how to react in a real fire can help other people too. So in a related fire situation and people don’t know what to do you can help them by telling them what you learnt from a practise fire drill you have participated in.  Basicly it is also teaching them what you learnt.

There are many more reasons why fire drills are important and know you know three of them. While you are at home or with some friends you can also tell them the importance of having fire drills, and they don’t always need to be at school they can be at home too.

Morning maths - Integers

In the morning I played a math game that our teacher set out for us. This was an easy game. I feel that this game wasn’t challenging for my mind and I wish to play a more challenging game next time.My knowledge on integers really has increased in these past few days. But playing this game I got a better understanding of subtracting and adding positive and negative numbers.

E Te Ariki - Maori lesson

At about 12:15 Ms Maude came to our classroom to teach us a maori song.  We learnt a song called E te ariki, and it was a hymn.  She comes every Tuesday to teach us maori, the maori word for hymn is himene.  It was really fun learning and singing this song, we had some laughs while learning it.  When Ms Maude comes back next week we are going to go over the song again and she is also going to teach us a karakia (Prayer).

Mince and cheese pie

Today at tech we finished the second part of our pie.  We melted the mince and cut out the pastry into a circle and filled our pie plates.  This was really fun, but we had a pastry malfunction. Our pastry got to soft and it got stuck to our chopping board. The pie was very delicious and I want to try and make this at home with my mum. I also got to decorate my pie a little bit.
