Order of operations
WALT- Order of Operation
I found these operations challenging at first because I didn't understand it until I revised the rule that we were told. Bedmas that stands for B- Brackets E- Exponents D- Division M- Multiplication A- Addition S- Subtraction. That was the strategy that helped me. This exercise helped me to be independent. Next time I would like a few more of this exercise. Just so I can be be more faster.

Co - ordinates
WALT- Finding Coordinates
The point of this game is trying to beat
the time session as well as getting points. It was tricky at first but as I got used to it I improved.
Next time I want to work on beating the time session.

Skipping was a surprise !
Skipping for Heart Health
Every year G.I.S is always invited to skip and perform their Jump Rope routines. This year was nerve racking, my heart was beating as fast as a cheetah. Every single class had their moves and songs to show off.
The confidence that we all took on the performing stage, was encouraging. My favourite performance was all of the classes but the best one that stood out was Rm10. Why? Because they were all participating. The people were cheering and shouting their names and although sometimes it could get a little bit embarrassing it was still awesome.
The purpose of doing skipping is to keep
- Fit
- Active
- your heart pumping
So guess what it hit the point when it was my class to skip, nerve racking, much. Some part of me wanted to skip and then the other side of me wanted to just sit out, but then I didn't want to let my class or school down. As we skipped to the song I got happy because the people were cheering and people were having fun watching us so I just went with the flow and it was fun.

Triangular Isosceles.
Walt- Making Nets
In math class our topic was to make nets. To make a nets, we had to use a compass and have an accurate measurement. Making a net, was confusing at times because we got wrong measurements and then we had to start over again. Doing the square based isosceles triangular was easy using the ark. Next time I want to learn how to make different shapes using the ark.

All about shapes
Walt: To name different shapes
This game was a tricky game because I had to play against the clock.
The shapes that I had done were a bit hard because they weren't familiar.
I really felt pressured because I wanted a good mark so I had to be fast.
Next time I will work on my speed.
I thought that I did pretty good in this game with my score and time.

At The Museum!
Andy and Mike were chosen to go to Auckland Museum for a worldwide road trip. Andy and Mike sneaked off to the toilets. While they were walking they went passed a huge dragon statue. It had a massive sign in red saying “ DO NOT TOUCH!” At the very bottom of the sign it said in very little writing “Don’t touch, the dragon might come alive.” They thought that it was very funny, so they rushed to the toilets, then headed back to their group.
As the group arrived at the dragon statue, Andy and Mike stayed back until their class left. As soon as the class left, they raced to the dragon statue and Mike nervously touched it.
The dragon reared up with his head high, his big blazing teeth, claws sharpen like a needle and his gigantic green tail lifted high and dropped to the ground. They had turned their laughs to screams. They ran very quickly to find their group but they couldn't so they panicked. Andy told Mike to never give up, so Mike wiped his tears and ran to the nearest exit.

While the dragon was chasing them the dragon stopped at the exit and said to Mike and Andy, “WHY DID YOU TOUCH ME. DID YOU NOT READ THE SIGN?”
Mike and Andy replied with a fearful look, “sorry we didn't mean to do that, we thought the sign wouldn't be true.”
The dragon replied with a huge smile, “It’s all right and for the record I was sick of being a statue my whole life and I'm very thankful.”
Mike asked with a confused voice, “So, so you weren't not trying to kill us or anything bad?”
