Term 1 Week 5

                                                          Term 1 Week 5


Over the few weeks at school room 20 did something called Cryptarithms in Math.  It is an activity where there is like a code that are some letters sort of thing that replaces numbers and you have to think what the numbers are.  If there are two letters the same it means that the numbers are the same.  Its a activity where you have to use your brain and see the pattern.  I find Cryptarithims 'fun' because I like problem solving problems. Here is a cryptarithm  problem:

A
A
  +  A
                       
=  BA


Room 20 also did Youthtown. Youthtown is a group of people that we do play games and do PE with them.  They come every week and play fun games and do PE with us.  This week we played an came they made up.  How to play: there are cones in the middle 

some stacked, you line up in a group that have a colour.  There is two sides with four teams. Girls one side guys on another.  The person in the front of the line gets a tennis ball and tries to throw at a cone opposite their team colour.  If all of your colours cone get knocked out, then you get a point.  The point is bad then usually.
I found this 'fun' because I liked PE.


We also did some Venn Diagrams  about some characters in the book the Whale Rider. The characters were Nanny Flowers , Koro Apriana and myself. You had to compare them all together.  A Venn Diagram is a few circles where you basically like compare them together. I liked this activity because I found it easy because I could connect with the characters.
