Understanding 'Human Rights' and 'Social Justice'.

What insights did I have into 'Human Rights' and
'Social Justice' as I learned about how others
are treated in other countries?

My insights to ‘Human Rights’. There are a lot of selfish

people out in the world that just want money and glory to them

self without spreading it around with the people who need it most. 

What questions about Human Rights
and Social Justice do I need answering?

Why do people not believe in ‘Human Rights’?

How can ‘Human Rights’ be evenly spread?

Scientific Method

In science we have been looking at what the scientific method. One of our assignments was to create and finish a flow chart showing how the scientific method is performed. Today I have learnt how to create my own scientific method and showcase it in my learning. I found this fairly easy to do as I am familiar with this type of work and what to do. 

Area and Perimeter

                     

This week we have been looking at ways we are able to display our learning on what we know about area and perimeter. Unique and I have created a animation on google slides explaining what and how to work out the area and perimeter of a rectangle or square. I think we have worked well on this animation, however we have not finished as we did not finish the screencastify that was to go with this but that is ok. I found this task semi easy yet hard 

All about me...

Kia Ora my name is Shakaia and I am a junior year 9 student that is currently  attending Bay Of Islands College. From as far as I know I am full Maori. I have about 6 siblings 3 boys and 3 girls, I am the oldest. I like to say I am good at playing Netball. I enjoy spending “quality time” with my siblings though they can be a bit annoying. I have a lot of challenges one being I am a very terrible writer and I cannot stay on task. My goals for this year is to get outside of my comfort zone and just have fun, also to be super chill.  My main three goals for this year is to make a lot of friends that are very chill, have fun all year and try my best no matter the cause. My hopes for the future are to make sure that I stay at school until I finish my whole 5 years at college. 

Probability - Using Tables

This morning we have been looking at how to use tables to work out probability questions. So technically we have to in vision  we have rolled two dice we were given questions such as what are all of the possible outcomes or P (even total)? 

Reflection - I have learnt that you can use a table to help you work out how to find out all of the possible outcomes when using probability questions. 

Tree Diagram

Today we have been learning about how a tree diagram works and how to use it in maths. We use tree diagrams in maths to show all of the possible outcomes in a question. For example if I had 3 shirts, 2 pairs of pants and 3 pairs of shoes, how many possible outcomes will I have to create a outfit to wear? An easy way to find this out is to time 3 x 3 which is 9 x 2 which is 18 so altogether I would have 18 possible outfits to choose from to wear. I think I have learnt more about tree diagrams and have gained more of an understanding.
