Life skills - Kayaking



 Yesterday were with Chelsea  learning how to use life jackets. Learning how to survive when your boat is flipped over. We really enjoyed the day with laughter,screams and a healthy lunch. Thank you Nestle and Michelle for this experience.

New Zealand Herald 8/5/17




In my opinion it’s a good idea to force people to not use their cell phone will working. Because when I cook or do other things while using my cell phone, the food gets burnt. The only time you allowed to use your phone is when there is an emergency. If you use your phone while working accidents could happen. So it’s a perfect idea to not use phone while working.

Probability: 8/20 Percentages: 40%

Walht: assign probabilities to simple events using fractions and percentages.
Today I was learning to assign probabilities to a game played with two 10 sided dice. I played with Zain. We alternated rolling the dice. We did this 20 times. We recorded our score in the outcomes column. Of the 20 attempts we were successful eight times. So the probability is 8/20 as a simple fraction and 40% as a percentage. Since  we did similar games this week I have a better understanding of probability. Next I ‘d like to play more probability games.
