BATTLE SHIPS!!

This week for strand we were learning about coordinates. Coordinates help you find the exact spot. What we had to do was guess the coordinates of where our buddy hid their boats. The way you say the coordinates where you want to go is that you go along the corridor first then up the stairs.

What is the coordinate of the grid below?

Here is my grid. I was buddies with Chloe.

A Letter to the Animal Trust

This week in strand we have been doing more measurements. We were put in groups to try and figure out measurements for the Animal Trust's plans and display them to the group. In my group I had Sophie, Lani, and Daniel P. Each task had 2 groups working on it. Here are all the tasks.

Our group did the first task (the garden one).

Here are the completed tasks in my book.

We decided to display our work through a fake letter to the Animal Trust.

TRANSFORMATION and TESSELLATIONS

For the past few weeks in EL4 Strand we have been learning about Transformation (Rotate, Translate, and Reflect). After we learnt about Transformations we then extended it into Tessellations (locking shapes together to create a picture with NO gaps, and NOT overlapping). I found the rotation and the coloring in hard. What helped me to make it easier was to do everything in pencil and then draw over it in pen.

Here is my TRANSFORMATION artwork.

Here is a Slide Show about Tessellations.

And here is my TESSELLATION artwork.
