Maths - Angles

Kia ora, this week for maths we have been working on angles.

The Goal was: Use appropriate scales, devices, and metric units for measuring angles.

This is what I had to do:

      

Task 1) Pick a flag and investigate some of the following:-

You may like to draw this out on paper or put in on a google drawing. If you’d like it printed, email it to me before Morning Tea.

What shapes can you see in it?  

There is a cross, two very stretched wide triangles and then two other triangles on the left and right.

Can you describe them and their angles?

The cross is more stretched width ways then length. The triangles at the top and the bottom are also stretched more width ways. Then there are also those two triangles on the side that are almost symmetrical but one point is just a smidge more longer than the others.

Does the flag have any lines of reflective symmetry, if so how many lines?

There is a lot of symmetry in this flag from to bottom and even from left to right. Both the black and the green triangles reflect again on the opposite direction.

Can you find any pairs of parallel lines?  If so mark them on your flag.

There are some lines parallel to each other but they’re on an angle. Here they are:

It is where I put the white lines

Are there any lines perpendicular to one another?

No, not that I can tell.

Task 2)

On a doc/drawing or slide collate a range of pictures showing angles in the real world - think creatively they are literally everywhere! 


Infographic - Equal Education

Hello, thanks for checking out my blog.

This week for writing I have been making an infographic about Equal Education. 

Here is my goal: Deliberately use written and visual language features when appropriate to enhance writing.

Here is my Infographic:

What do you think equity means compared to equality?

For the past weeks in reading we have all chosen a novel. I chose Artemis Fowl and I am almost up to chapter seven.

 The goal I was working on today was: 
Evaluate the writer’s purpose and consider how structure and language have been used to suit purpose.

Here is my finished task:
