Here are some of our brief thoughts on the highlights and challenges for us on camp last week.

Room 10 Maths Group - Geometry

We have been learning about Geometry - Transformation, and using mathematical language such as reflect, translate, rotate, lines of symmetry and the order of rotation. We then made a modern twist on a tapa cloth design. We didn't use traditional pacifica designs, we could choose whatever designs we wanted, but we had to show rotation reflection and translation in our design. We were then starting to show some negative and positive space, but unfortunately we ran out of time to finish these this term.

Maths and Chocolate Cake

At the start of this term, the Room 10 Maths Group was learning about measurement, capacity, volume, and mass. We were learning about non-standard units for measurement as well as standard units such as litres and millilitres, grams and kilograms. To put our knowledge into practical use, in small groups, we made some play-dough and also a chocolate cake. Here are some pictures of us making play-dough and chocolate cakes.
