Clay day

For this task we had to make sculptures out of clay and reflect on them.

WALT: share an experience with an audience

Success Criteria:

Share an experience so that someone else feels as thought they are experiencing it with you.

Share what you learnt

Share what you would do differently next time

I am proud of my clay because it took me a long time but I managed to compleat it.

The thing that challenged me was when then clay was hard and it was hard to mould with.

I enjoyed moulding them and getting to create lots of sculptures.

I learnt that free form clay can be worth lots of money and they are just random thing.

Next time I want to make more sculptures.
Here are mine.

Statistics

For this task we had work out the mean median mode and range.

I think I need to learn to be more accurate when adding big numbers and also remember that the mode is the number that comes up the most. Also I need to learn more about the median and how to work it out.

Caving

There was a dim glow in the gaping black hole that was waiting to sallow me up. Glow worms swarmed the walls like an army. I knew that If I was too loud they would tun of there light. I dragged my feet across the damp ground. The cave was as black as the night sky.

Russell then the perent that was in charge of caving suddenly wispered " Turn of your lights and listen." I heard a sound up on the roof. What is it? I thought. I stared up at the roof and saw 5 cave wetās looking down at me. As I passed them I came arcoss a small lake and saw the water  bubbling and swrling. Is that a fish I wondered. There in the water was a fresh water crayfish. It seemed to stare at me for a second but when I pointed my torch at it slithered away behind a rock. My foot splashed in the ice cold water of a puddle.

I squeezed pass narrow corridor of stone. I shined my light to the left and saw a low ledge then we squeezed pass another corridor of stone. Then everyone in front of me stopped Russell said that we had to crawl in the ledge of stone. Everyone started to crawl thought lf we were in an army. Every 30 seconds or so I would have to go lower. The water soaked my knees and my shoe was bursting with water. When we got out I was as wet as the ocean. We had a cookie and then Russell asked" Who wants to do that agian not the crawling bit." I raised my hand. We went back inside and and explored the dirty damp dusty cave. I found lots more cave weāts. Lots of them. Finally we got out of the cave and I felt the suns rays shine like plasma beams on my back warming it.

Camp maths

W.A.L.T: solve problems with money

Today we did some maths about camp.

Here is my working out.

Each student will have to pay $26.67 to make $800.

Goals

W.A.L.T: Set smart goals.
For this task we had to think of two goals for camp that we want to achieve. We did this task because we are going to highland home camp next Tuesday. Here is a exsample of one that nic did.

These are my goals.

1.I aim to always learn new things. I have chosen this goal because I like learning new this and also I think that alerting new things are fun.

2.I aim to encouraging people to have a go at activities like if they are scared on the rock climb I want to try and encourage them to have a go.

Here is a link to another exsample on the class blog.

Poutama Rama blog

I achived my first goal always learn new things. I learnt that air rifle bullets go blunt after you used them and will not shoot properly if you try to shoot them agian. I picked this goal because there is so much to learn about and if you are not going to start now then when are you going to start learning? I also picked this goal because if you keep learning the same thing you get nothing out of your work.

I achived my second goal to encourage people. I did this by encouraging Ross to go down the abseiling tower when he was scared and wouldn't go down. I picked this goal because people can get scared when They are doing, some activates but all the team has to do is, encourage them to try again.

Comment: I like how you had some examples of how you  competed your goals
