Marble Challenge

In Te Ngahere last term, we did the marble challenge. We are doing to this to help us to prepare for the science fair this term. My group decided not to build a new ramp but instead we modified our old ramp to give it another chance.What my group change is how steep our ramp is so the marble doesn't go as fast as last time. The reason why we changed how steep the ramp was is because the marble went to fast. I think improved on my ramp because my ramp got more points than the first time Te Ngahere did the marble challenge. What I enjoy the most is making the ramp because I like to build and make stuff.

Have you ever made a marble ramp?

Dot Plot Graph

Latey in Te Ngahere my class has been learning about “dot plots”. What I learnt is how to make a dot plot graph. I also learnt how to do was analyze and also create a dot plot. Something that was tricky for me to do in this activity was explain what I saw or found in the two classes. The thing that what I got stuck was when Room 1 throwed between 14 and 19 but the thing that I got stuck on was I thought that all the balls were landing between 10 and 20. We had to describe how the data from room 1’s dot plot was gathered. 

Have you ever done a dot plot graph before?

Science Fair

Latey in Te Ngahere our class has been doing science experiments. My groups topic is “Can you keep a flower alive longer by putting different liquid to feed the flower. I learned what a conclusion and a discussion means I also learned what controlled variables, independent variable means. What I found difficult is writing out the method and writing out the evaluation.What I would do different is picking an easy topic because the first time my group did the experiment we had to restart because the flowers stem was to long so we had to get new flowers and get more liquids. Which hoe I was using is Manaakitanga because I needed to help me and my group.
