Creative Wrtiting Matrix: English

Once upon a time i was with 2 boys their names were tai & Jordan. We got really lucky because we were stuck in the middle of nowhere and we woke up like this. We really stank so we looked around for some water but all we could see was trees and bushes everywhere, it sorta felt like we were stuck in the middle of the forest. We sat down for 10 minutes yelling out hello and we heard echo of a noise, as we walked towards it, the noise keeps getting louder and louder, as we got there we saw nothing. On the way back to our camping van we had seen a snake, you wouldn't believe how big and long it was. 

We looked away and then we seen some water, so what we did was we ran to the water, but actually we decided who would have to take the first drink of the water because we didn't know what was in it and what it tasted like. So we done paper scissors rock and i won so then jordan and tai vsed of to see who had to drink the water first, when they started the water started bubbling up and Jordan and tai pointed behind me there was a gigantic crocodile the size of a plane and it was really long. It was about 6.8 2(1 ft 4 in) and weighed 1,0345

SDL Weekly Goals

1. One goal i need to focus on is knowing what work i need to complete in the amount of time in the week. So basically i don't react to sillyness and carry on with the work i'm given.

2. Another goal i need to work on is having a really positive attitude to all parts of learning, so i need to make sure i stay on task & i am really positive for the work i have.

Maths 9Ay blog post

What is Pythagoras theorem? it is maths question that goes like this, A^2 + B^2 = C^2. That is a way of how you can do Pythagoras theorem. You would have to use this calculation to get C^2 otherwise you wouldn't be able to get the square root for this question.

This here is a right angle triangle, you would go A^2 = B^2 = C^2 and then go A=3 B=4 C=Hypo
and then 5^2 +4^2  = c^2 hypo.

The square roots you wanna get is the last equation answer & the first equations answer. If i was trying to get the square roots you would go like this. 5 on one side 20 on the bottom of the right angel triangle, and you would go like this 5+5 = 10 20 x 20 = 400 and then go 400 + 10 = 410 and then go 410 + 400 = 810 and you would go put 810 in your calculator to find the square root.
This here is a photo of a person trying to get the square root for his equation.
What am i given is the Pythagoras and i will need to calculate and do the equation to get the square root.

The proof of theory & formula. The proof and theory is that we can easily get the square root by calculating some numbers using the hypotenuse and Pythagoras theorem.

Idioms

Vegetarian Nachos

in cooking we cooked some vegetarian nachos. we had to put a lot of tomato beans and vegetables and onion but the outcome tasted really good and without the mince it still had a very good taste. My group used teamwork really well & we managed to get it all finished and ready to eat. Communication we used communication alright we managed to talk to each other and finished right on time.

Things i enjoyed about this project?

• I really enjoyed working in the learning commons filming something that was funny, and it was so nice and peaceful!

Things i learned during this project

• One thing i learnt was to not prior presser anyone into doing something they don't want to do or cant do

Things that challenged me during this project

• Was to face the camera for once and to be not shy

If i did this again, what would i do differently

• One thing i would do differently would probably be to do it better instead of me & Austin wasting some time

Maths game

In the last week or so we have got into groups and we have started to come up with ideas and make a game of your choice. It can be a online game or a paper game you can make with some spare paper, my outcome to our game is to know the answer to some of the numbers and words for subtraction, addiction, multiplication & division. If you know the answer you will click subtraction addition multiplication or division, if you get it wrong you will have to try again. Our game is quiet hard if you keep on trying you will actually probably get them wrong, So basically how we made our game is we have made a google slide made 4 word clouds and put them into our slide & then also we choose a game and we have made it this far from making it.
