Andrea- Estimation: Chains

Length of Chains

WALT: 1. Arrange length in order.

2. Find mean, median, mode, range.

3. Explain the differences in length.

Pairs	Length of Chain in centimeters
Ben and Dion	86
Wesley and Koliata	169
Lorenzo and Liam	170
Ifa and Tane	192
Alyssa and Shanelle	192
Andrea and Lana	200
Ketura  and Serena	220
Stephanie and Cherish	286
Petuana and Yazmin	304
Munokoa and Samuel	320
Viliami and Howard	383

Mean = 229.3  

Median = 200

Mode = 192

Range = 297

I think the lengths are different because of the strategy we used for cutting the paper. Some of them cut it from the length and others chose to cut from the width. Viliami and Howard probably made the longest chain because they took the time to measure and cut their strips evenly. Ben and Dion one was short because their strips of paper were big and used up most of the paper.

Andrea- Jonah Lomu Comic

Petuana - Paris Bombing

On Friday 13November Paris experienced horrible things.Over 153 people died and many people got injured really badly. I hope that they catch the people that did this horrible thing and that they go to jail. I'm praying for you.

Yazmin - All Blacks Auckland Celebration.

Congratulations All Blacks on bringing the Webb Ellis cup home. I'm really disappointed that I didn't get to celebrate with you. I had school which is important. Next time please have the celebration in Auckland on the weekends or after school.

CONGRATS ALL BLACKS!!!!!

Alyssa- Double Bar Graph

WALT: Use online tools to draw a double bar graph.

Watched Didn’t watch

B:10 B:3

G:5 G:7

I made this bar graph to show how many girls and boys did/didn’t watch the RWC final. Frist our teacher told us to put our hands up if we watched it or we didn’t. There were more boys than girls that watched the game because 10 students didn’t watch the game and 13 students that did. I think the boys watch it more than girls because they have a lot of interest in it, and most girls don’t watch it because they have no interest. Everyone in the class predicted a score but Robin was the closest his on was 32-17.

Dances around the world

Room 11 Dances around the world.

This year Room 11 studied Dances from around the world.  The students decided to learn a dance from a different country and then teach it to others. This is the learning we show in our video.  While learning to do that, we also learnt how to green-screen.  That was very cool!

Petuana- A career with the All Blacks

WALT: Research jobs with the All Blacks.

I’d want to be a dietitian for the All Blacks because I would be able to make them fit and healthy for their games and I’d be able to make sure that they eat well and that they are in good shape. I would also be able to write down, plan and pick the sorts of good nutritious food that they can eat.  But the reason why I’d want to be a dietitian is so that I can hang out with them and be really good friends.
