Callum's+Journal

__10/3/10​__ W.A.L.T about time and temperature I would like to learn moreabout the conversion of degrees celsius to degrees farenheight Callum - we will be looking at this next week. Mrs. Breeds.

__15/3/10__ W.A.L.T. We are learning about different time zones around the world and how to calculate time differences. The reason we have different times is because the world is round so the sun isn't in the same place at the same time so some for some people its day others its night.I would like to learn about how daylight savings affects the different times. That's a good question - basically if a country is affected by daylight savings this pushes their time further from GMT, almost as if they were another time zone away.

__18/3/10__ W.A.L.T.We are learning about exchange rates for different countries Please finish this!

__19/3/10__ W.A.L.T. We are learning about the difference between celcius & farenhieght We have two temperature measurements because the Americans havent changed from empirial to convert farenhieght to celcius you -32 x9 /5 C= F-32*5/9. Does it work the way you have it? You could investigate.

__24/3/10__ W.A.L.T. subtract decimals with up to three decimal places eg.5.6 - 2.84 +.16 +.16 5.76 - 3 = 2.76 I am pleased you learnt something today in Maths. How do you fell about using this strategy? Is it useful? TC​ I like strategy it really helps

__29/3/10__ W.A.L.T. Use temperature as a strategy to help us add and subtract intergers eg:-5678+6789=1111 This strategy is very helpful and a easy to do I am pleased you find this strategy easy to use and helpful. It is always easier to learn a new concept in a context. TC

__31/3/10__ W.A.L.T. Add not subtract when working on decimal subtraction problems eg:56.95-49.96=6.99 49.96+ =56.95 =6.99 This way is ok but i like the other way better

__21/4/10__ W.A.L.T. Find out what we know, what we think we know, what we dont know about statistics. So tell me what do you know? This is the place I expect you to reflect on your learning. I know all about graphs apart from radar and I now know all about discrete and continous data

__7/5/10__ W.A.L.T. display data using a box and whisker graph



__13/5/10__ I've been working on my survey and i'm finding it challenging but i wont stop working on it

I am wondering if you would be better to just have this as a file that you can open Callum. talk to Mrs Breeds or I about this on Monday. I agree with Ms Eddy Callum - try uploading the file to the wiki, same way you do the picture, and insert it, same way you do the picture. It puts a little 'X' icon (for Excel) so that someone can click to open the file and read it easier. Mrs Breeds.

__27/5/10__ Today we did are second otago maths test and once again I got 100% in it. Next time I will try to use my time more effictivly. The most challenging was no.5 An excellent result Callum....What did you find challenging about it Callum? I would really like to see you use this journal more effectively as an insight into your thoughts and what you are finding challenging and easy. Give these a bit more thought from now on!!

__28/5/10__ Today i did the media report 2 on water usage it shows that most water is used outdoors yet at the start it says most water used in bathroom and you have to find out whats right and wrong about its graph and then correct it

__31/5/10__ On friday I did an IKAN test. I need to practice my stage 8 fractions because I got 0 correct. I need to improve my stage 8 basic facts because I only got half correct not all correct. It is important that these become instant facts for you. Was it the improper fractions that you had issues with?
