Tech (Tamaki College) | Graphics w/ Mrs. Ferguson

This week at Tamaki College, LS2 had their last session of tech for the term. The year 7's we're begin to create their games on paper. Using the light box, and shape stencils to help us design the best for our planning. Mrs. Ferguson showed us to tinker-cad and we explored some of the tools on there. I am making a tic tac toe board, but instead of crossses and o's they are apples and banana's. We were even given a challenge to make our teacher using tinker cad and the shapes, etc.

Interactive Maths Quiz

This is my interactive maths game, to practise a mix of multiplication and decimal problems in written form. There are only 5 questions, with either a correct or incorrect answer and a reaction page that i’d like you all to use to give me feedback on my quiz. Note that you can always use a hint, and remember to think about the question carefully. Peers testing my game, and playing others games have helped me bring mine to the next level by looking at my layout, font, colouring, and sizing. Feedback from my teacher was to look at unnecessary capitals in some of the equations. It’ll be obvious if you get it the answer wrong or right, so you can try again or continue to the next question. I really enjoyed creating my own character and making it move, using a GIF maker site. Enjoy!

Kiwi Sport | Rippa Rugby

This week for kiwi sport we had rippa rugby. Instead we played on the field with Mr Ogilve and learnt a few things that we would be doing in the actual kiwi sport lessons because the coach wasn't here. First we played got into pairs then numbered ourselves 1 or 2 My partner was Alayah. Alayah was 2 and I was 1. 2's went on the feild and wore no bibs and 1's got a bib and put it on. First we played everyone is it. The name is self explanatory, everyone is in and if you were tagged you had to sit out. After a few rounds of that we made it more hard by having when people got out they could tag someone that passed them but they had to sit in the same spot. After a few rounds of that we played a different game using 2 rugby balls. The bibs vs non bibs had a competition who could get all the people out with the rugby balls in the fast time. You only had a minute. We couldn't move around with the ball so we had to pass it. Bibs won. Then we practised doing a backward pass by having the team players pass back to each other until the reach a bib that was set on the feild. When we got to the bib we had to tap the ball on the bib and sit down. We had a few practised then we had a competition. In the end we came back to class.

Football

This week we played football with Mr O although our kiwi sport will be rippa rugby. First he remind of us of what area of the foot we use to kick and why, also to control the ball. We had to get ourselves into groups of 4 to practise passing the ball and taking control. In my group there was - Florence, Alayah and Sione A. Each group had to get a ball and spread out into a space standing a square shape with your members. Someone started off by passing it the person next to them and the ball passed around in the square. The person the starter passed it to had to take control then pass to the next person and carried on the pattern. Next we played a game. There were 2 teams that were bibs and non bibs, I was in bibs. The instructions of this game was each team had to stand in a straight line with the ball in between each of the teams. Whatever number Mr Ogilvie called out, that was the amount of people that would be playing and versing each other. It would be the first people in the beginning of the line. Sooner or later we had goal keepers. Everyone was very good and tried there best. In the end we weren't sure of the winners but we all had fun. I though it was tiring because I was gasping for air and sweating. Finally we finished up the game and went back to class.

Maths Scenario Videos

L.I: To convert the number of chances probability into the percentage chance probability.
This week for maths we had to create a scenario where we have more of a chance of winning. I worked in a group of three. For my maths game or scenario I used some plastic toy jelly beans I found in the class room. I used 4 of the reds and 10 of the yellows (all together it was 14). Fui and Nyja showed my game. Fui had to get 2 of the yellows and Nyjah had to get 2 reds whilst they both were closing there eyes. In the video it shows you who won and I tell you how many chances in fractions.
