Solving problems with percentages

Solving problems with percentages


As you can see here this is a screenshot of the activity that I did during maths. At first I thought it was hard but then suddenly turned out to be easy. I was really proud of how far I made it with percentages. I think that I found this activity quite easy and next time I want to learn ratio and proportion.

I found this site easy to work with. The tools were easy to use to make the graphs. Next time I want to learn fractions and decimals.

Corn maths

Corn maths



On Monday, we were learning to estimate the different parts of a cob of sweetcorn.  My partner was Jazire. We weren't very close of rounding our number to the actual amount. It was easy to count the husk just not the silk and the kernels of the corn. I found estimating challenging because I haven't done this before. Next I want to revise decimals, fractions and percentages.

The Lyre bird

The Lyre bird

Clouds appeared roughly, an ornithologist just searching for the Lyrebird in the South forest of Australia. Walking deeper into the forest he spotted something from the corner of his eyes. And there it was, the Lyre bird just walking among the leaves. Then the ornithologist followed just to get a better look at it and losing track of where he came from.

Entering the bird kingdom in the South of Australia is a Lyrebird standing on a platform to show off his long white feathers to the female. The Lyrebird  has black shiny feathers and black pitch eyes. The Lyre birds can imitate sounds of up to 20 species. It can copy sounds like a car alarm, chain saw noise, camera shutter and a camera motor drive. Such a talented bird.

He was so amazed of what he had discovered about this bird. Then he stopped and wondered where he was. He didn’t have a clue. Until he heard a sound of a camera shutter coming from his right. He run toward it and suddenly he was back on track. He was lucky to find his way back.

Basic facts



As you can see here this is a math activity that I did. What we had to do is solve the problems by using standard algorithms. As you can see my score, I got 67 and with is I got a medal and for that I get to become a member but I said no. In maths I really want to get a 4A and next I want to learn how to divide numbers at a year 7 and 8 level.
