Inquiry Reflection Term 2 2016

Inquiry Reflection!


This term In inquiry we have been doing lots of learning about Science - Planet Earth and Beyond. My question is: What impact does a tornado have on planet Earth and Jupiter? The answer to my question is easy really, a tornado wrecks heaps more on planet earth than on Jupiter because Earth has heaps of man built stuff where's jupiter just has sand, rocks, and cliffs to destroy.
I have made a model of a tornado. I started off with a large nappy box, then I painted a landscape inside the box, later I added items like houses , horses, trees, and more. My model  hopefully shows the answer to my question because it has a line down the, one side is Wrecked and one side isn’t.I enjoyed making the tornado but didn't really enjoy painting the inside.
I liked doing the rotations and it’s the kind of thing I’d like to do again.

Week 7's Reflection! 2016

                                 Divisible Numbers!
What?This week we have been learning the divisibility rule for 3.

Why?Because it is an easy strategy to use on any sized number.

How?It is actually really easy, so say you have the number 9174 you plus all the numbers together so 9+1+7+4=21.Is 21 one of the 3 time tables (yes).
