Maths Week 2

Hello and welcome back to my blog, 

For this weeks blog I'll be talking to about Maths for this week. For this week for Maths we didn't do any workshops. Instead of doing workshops we did, Cantamath. Cantamaths is a maths race. You have a team and you have one runner. Everyone is in a team and we all have to sit in a circle. We all start off with one first question. After figuring out the question your runner in your team has to run around everyone to the ground to were the teachers are. The teachers hold the questions and have to answers to the questions. If you get it wrong you have to run back to where your team is sitting and try to figure it out again. If you get it right you get given another question and run back to figure it out. You do this until you answer as many question you can before we have to stop. If your stuck on one question you can skip the question and move on to the next one. After doing this race our hub year 7/8 have entered a competition. The competition is optional for us to enter of not. The competition is Cantamath. This is way different than the race. There are different categories that you can enter in. You have to make something that involves in the categories. Than after you make it you send it off to a competition. At the competition there will judges that will judge our creations and pick a 1st place 2nd place and 3rd place. over the years the year 7/8 we have placed a couple of times. The theme for this year is Maths in Entertainment. The categories that we can enter in is, 2021 Publicity Motif, Games & Puzzles, Static Mathematical Models, Mathematical Posters, Dynamic Mathematical Models, Maths Photography.

Reading Week 2

Hello and welcome back to my blog, 

In today's blog I will be sharing with you my task that we had to do this week for Reading. 
For this week we were continuing on with working on the Fantastics. For our task this week we had to complete a slide show. On the slide show we had to make our own copy of this slide and go on from there. On the slide each slide had a different Fantastic and for each Fantastic there was a story for each one. Each Fantastic their was more than one story for each so we had choices. After we read the story we picked for the Fantastic we had to write down something positive in the story or something negative based on what Fantastic it was. 

Here is my link for my slideshow,

Have you ever used the Fantastics in your writing.
