Ordering decimals


To play this game, I have to pop the balloon from smallest to biggest. I’ve got some answers wrong because I wasn’t focusing. I keep on getting mixed up by popping the decimals from small to big. What I need to learn next is to revisit problems involving fractions, decimals and percentages.

Basketball/poem


As I was dribbling the ball to my friend,
a lot of time was spend
then my friend did a three pointer
but then the huge orange ball suddenly slammed the rim,
the time was wasted as the other player runs to get the ball but trips and then skim his skin

As the whistle blows for half time, everyone takes a huge break
when the break is finish, we all play serious
we have to hide the ball in case the others try to snatch it
once other people travel the ball
they start to get all mad
the referee starts to blow the whistle for the game to be over
all the players stand in line and shake the teams hand

Shapes




To play this game you have know what the shape are when it appears. I didn’t know what was a rhombus and a parallelogram. Instead I just remembered the shape of it. I got better and better at it.

Money wise

Walt: write a response to the talk by Evan.

When Evan talked to us about money wise, he was right because in my family, my eldest brother doesn’t know how to take care of his money. He just likes to spend it on his things instead of paying bill. When I’m going to be the age of my eldest brother I will be more responsible with my money. Evan told us about his story when he was a kid. He convinced me to save money and spend a little as well.

Reflective symmetry

Walt: draw patterns to show reflection symmetry.

We were learning to make patterns and to draw symmetrical lines to make a reflective symmetry. A reflective symmetry for an example means that if you look in the water at your self, you will see your reflection. When I was drawing my picture, it was had to do it on the computer but then I had to use some shapes. My picture looks beautiful to me. What I want to learn next in geometry is area.

Mummification




First the mummies brain was removed but not the heart. After the brain was drained they salted the body. Cloth was stuff in the body to keep it in good shape. Then they oil the body and wrap it up tightly with lots of bandages. It helps the body from rotting. It was all supervised by a priest. The Egyptians believe that the priest can send the dead person's spirit to another place. The mummies were put into a case. Some cases were wooden cases and some were beautifully decorated. If you're a important person you were to put into a stone coffin.
