Chain Reaction Trickshot

Here in Te Ngahere we have been creating new trick shots every week. The trickshot that we were focusing on this week was to create a chain reaction for at least 5 seconds. The group that I had been working with for the past three weeks decided to create a domino effect using books. I personally found creating our own obstacles difficult because I dont have alot of experience with making trick shots. Setting up our trickshot was very difficult because we couldn't physically contact each other. Have you ever done trickshots ? Here is our trickshot.

My Trickshot Reflection

Here in  Te ngahere we have created our own trickshots using cardboard. Our focus was to get the ping pong ball to roll or bounce inside the cup without physically touching the ping pong ball, my group decided to make a ping pong bat out of cardboard and to use folded piece of cardboard so the ping pong ball would roll down the piece of cardboard into the cup. Have you done anything similar to this before? Here is our reflection.

My Math Eyes

We learnt to identify maths in the world around us. We had to identify the things that stood out about a group of gingerbread men on a slide presentation.  I realised that all of the gingerbread men had two legs and two arms. Using our maths eyes we had to understand the questions that we were given so we could answer them related to the topic.

What I did well was I used my math eyes and spotted different things about the gingerbread men. What I could do better is identify more detail about the gingerbread men. I personally found describing the gingerbread men to create a story difficult.

Did you find anything different about the gingerbread men ??
