Tree diagrams

This week in maths we looked at tree diagrams, a tree diagram is a way of displaying data and is used for finding out different probability.My goal in maths was, Probability - Use tree diagrams to find the possible outcomes for a sequence of events. There were five questions and we had to pick two to do then I put them onto a slide and used screencastify to voice over.
Have you ever used tree diagrams?

Wonderful Writing

This week in writing I looked at complex sentences, a complex sentence is a sentence that has one independent clause and one dependant clause.My goal was  use complex sentences that are grammatically correct / proofread for spelling, grammar and punctuation.We had to write a short story witch had four of more complex sentences.
This is the inspiration I used for my story
This is my story, Can you find the complex sentences?

When quarantine finally finished I went outside only to find leaves.A calm breeze sent leaves falling from the trees.I watched the leaves fall but then one landed on my face.I peeled the leaf off my face and started to walk away. As I was walking I stopped and  started to collect the leafs into a pile.I run backwards then forwards and jumped into the pile. Finally I made it out of my ginormous leaf pile and continued my walk.When I arrived at the opening of the forest I looked and saw the outside world.

Tessellations

This week for maths my math goal was: Identify and use the features of a figure that do not change (invariant properties) as it is reflected, rotated, translated or enlarged.A tessellation is where a shape stays the same when it is reflected, rotated, translated or enlarged. There are only three tessellation shapes they are, square,triangle and hexagon. We had to make a tessellation, I used this website to create it then put it on google drawing.
This is my tessellation.
Have you ever made a tessellation?

Sentences and Punctuation

This week for writing my goal was Attempt more complex punctuation.We had to take sentences from our report we wrote and change them.We did the before and after of the sentences then we wrote a little on why we changed it. I focused on semi colons and dashes.I also looked at complex and compound sentences.

We read to stories then had to fill out a template.
