Reflection Week (3?)

This week Shaun learned how to play two games, a game with a dice and a game where you have to throw the ball at the drum. I didn't enjoy the second one and I didn't mind the first one. The only challenge was the different words and all the rules.

We learnt about a game played in Chile called Palin. It is very very similar to Hockey. It is played on a 200m field and has about 15 players lined up on either side and each person can't go past the person in front or behind. The game is played, like with hockey, a curved wooden stick and hard ball. To get sticks we went to the beach.

working indepently and time management

The first Chinese man, Appo hocton, arrived in New Zealand  in 1853 and was naturalised. In the 1860s, Chinese immigrants were invited to New Zealand by the Dunedin Chamber of Commerce to replace the western gold miners who had followed the gold-fever to Australia.  However, prejudice against the Chinese eventually led to calls for restrictions on immigration. Following the example of anti-Chinese poll taxes enacted by California in 1852 and by Australian states in the 1850s, 1860s and 1870s, John halls government passed the Chinese Immigration Act in 1881. This imposed a £10 tax per Chinese person entering New Zealand, and permitted only one Chinese immigrant for every 10 tons of cargo.  Richard Seddon Government increased the tax to £100 per head in 1896, and tightened the immigration restriction to only one Chinese immigrant for every 200 tons of cargo.

Science Electrical Invention

Our invention is a tripwire that when someone opens the door the fishing rod wire connected to the cardboard is yanked out of the peg therefore activating the circuit.

Positives
one of the positives is that the circuit works!!!
The circuit is fairly easy to set up


Minuses
You have to reset the circuit after it is activated
This tripwire may use a bit of power


Interesting
i think it is very cool that you can make your own homemade burglar alarm that doesn't cost a fortune.

Designing a game on Python

My game design was good i have the basic structure of it, but i need to add bricks. Turtle graphics. I am learning the turtle graphics, it is a bit difficult, i can copy and paste the code. Scratch is good, it has a step by step tutorial to guide me otherwise i wouldn't have a clue, but i am learning, slowly.

Trinket, i suppose can do certain things with codes. Basically you write a code on one side and the turtle does the command on the other side.
i know i can copy and paste codes and change size and color.

Starting Greyhigh

I like maths because the teacher is helpful and i learn new things everyday.

 Personally i think uniform should only be worn on formal occasions and the uniform can be optional.

Peer support is really BORING. because the games have been boring and babyish.

i have not liked digital or service because the digital work is annoying for me and the subjects personally are quite boring.

i like rotating around different teachers because you aren't stuck with the same one all day

i learnt about my future job that i need to be smart and learn and study

today i have learnt how to do short devision with a fractional remainder,
this task is much much similar to normal short division but there is a twist you dont just have a remainder you have got to turn the remainder into a fraction heres a example (i hope it helps) 4 divided by 345, first we cant divide 4 into 3 so we need to make it 34, so 4 divided by 34 equals 8, yes that might be 32 but we put the remainder of numbers onto the next number so instead of 5 its 25 so 4 divided by 25 equals 6 with a remainder 1, we then make this a fraction so then we make remainder 1, 1/4.

Tie Dye T-shirts

With my stencil i got peeved off but i kept trying my best not to cut out the wrong parts. I got dissapointed when i cut the edges out but the end result made up for it. The hard work i put into it was all worth it. When I printed the stencil on my t-shirt it was so great. I think it is so intricate and precise how i did this i am so proud of it. Thanks Mr wood for helping and guiding me on the stencil.

        REFLECTION
today i tried to problems on To The Wire. problem 1, draw 5 straight lines that eventually all add up to the right number. problem 2, finding out how much profit someone made by selling their guitars. problem 1 i failed 2 times but these failures told me what i was doing wrong and that i couldnt use these numbers. problem 2 i failed 1 time and this has told me that using a subtracting method wont work.
