P4c

Today for P4c was : Is studying better than having fun with a friend?

First I thought that playing with friends is way more fun than studying. After I had done the sheet of what we think is important to us from 1-8 , I seemed to change my answer. I changed my answer because if I didn't do my work I would get told off and that would not make happy.

The questions were :

1. What do you think of sitting in a dentist's chair? ____5_____


2. Do you like eating your favorite food? ____2_______


3. Do you like reading a book? ______1______


4. Do you like playing a game? _____2______


5. Would you help your class mate do their home work? ____1____


Those were the questions, and my answers. If you wanted them to be the most
important than it would be a 1. If it wasn't important at all then it would be a 8.


I did change my answer like I said, so I said " I would do my studying first and then do my playing with my friends.


I forgot some of the answers and Katie said " If most of your answers were other people first then you were a thing called *Orterimisim" I was one of those people.


( Orterimism means that you put people first in stead of you)

Tessellations.





Today I made a Tessellation. The rules for tessellations are no gaps and no over laps. My tessellation is triangles or mountains and some squiggles.


One of the greatest Tessellation makers was Escher.
Escher made some pretty cool illusions and some great Tessellations!
Can you tell which one is mine and which one is Eschers?

Indian Ink

Last week I started to paint my Indian Ink picture. I was painting a black cat leaping into a pile of leaves.

The colour of the leaves are red,orange and yellow.Look closely you will see my cat.


I have a problem it, looks like its jumping into a tree! So I am working on fixing that!

Now I realise that I painted the grass yellow instead of green!
You will not see this in my picture as I have painted over it.

I have learnt that you really need to watch what you are using for your colours.

Fibonacci's Cows

Today I discovered Fibonacci . I thought that Fibonacci's pattern was pretty clever.

I found out that he has cows and he counts his cows and then he said that it goes with his number pattern.
The cow life matches with Fibonacci's pattern.
The cows life is part of math, did you know that?

Teacher comment

Madison, your passion for movie making has increased, the further into your project you got. I was impressed with your enthusiasm for challenge, as making a movie from beginning to end is not an easy task. The way that you took on board advice that was given to you, and then used this new learning to work independently, shows your shift in understanding. To create a movie such as yours, that had an extremely precise purpose, required very clear communication from you, and I think you achieved this goal easily. I hope that you watched the reaction of your audience at the hospital and felt a sense of pride at the amount of work you put into it, and the result you achieved!
