Locating and Predicting Faces

Today for maths I learnt about how many faces are on a shape. I estimated that the top shape would have 6 triangle faces and 1 hexagon face, also I estimated that the bottom shape would have 8 faces. I was right once but also wrong once.. I also learnt that it is not about the faces you can see because there are some faces that are hidden or you can't see.

Electives Mask Making

Today I came to room 7 to do my elective mask making. Today is the last group of making masks besides Shannon and Juliano because they are not here today and they haven't done their masks yet. I haven't done my mask yet too. I am feeling excited and also nervous to do my mask. I can't wait to do it.

The Part-Adder Tool

Today I used the Part-Adder tool to work the maths equation. The equation had two digit numbers. The equation was 48+49. On this image I did 45+3+2=50. Then 50+40=90. Then 90+7=97.

 On this strategy I first did 48+50=98 and 98-1=97.
