Shoe Tower

Today we had Karena and Tracey in class while Mr. Edwards (formal teacher) was out of the classroom. We have sooo much fun when Karena is here because we always do physical activities that don't involve our chromebooks, which is a good thing since we're ALWAYS on it.
Todays challenge was to make a tower using out shoes.  My group didn't win but it was a really funny and heart stopping activity. What my group found challenging was balancing the shoes on top of each other and figuring out how we could use EVERY part of the shoe to help our shoe tower( including the shoe laces etc). What we did extremely well in was deciding which shoes should be at the bottom, and which would work best at the top. I was honestly really impressed with the creativity of my group and also the respect when bringing up their ideas to contribute in making the tower. We had so much fun.
 

Mangahigh

This Week, we did Mangahigh.
I was learning to calculate the missing angles using angles already provided by Mangahigh.
What I really enjoyed about it was trying to get a gold medal as a result. I also really enjoyed getting all the questions correct. What I learnt from today was what and acute angle was.
