Statistics- Finding out the the probabilities!!

This term, our 2 AWESOME teachers Mrs Nua and Ms Szymanik have helped us to figure out probability. In our maths class we are learning to show the possibles outcomes if we put things in a bag or basket. The picture on the left is an example of a way to figure out the outcomes.

Statistics


This is a photo of what we have been learning. We have been up to figuring out the possibilities of the outcomes, if we put things in a bucket. If you read this photo, you can see what the outcomes I figured out!!!

The Beep Test

As every one knows, there is a beep test in sport to reveal how fit they are. The All Black's have to get between 14 and 15. Many have fallen short of scores, and some are sometimes not pushing themselves to their limit. As the beep test came in just a click, there were many people like Kayde, Matthew t and R and Cruz had already who legs were feeling sluggish, because we just finished an awesome game of bull rush tag.

When the beep test came to an end, every one fell to the ground like they were running in the marathon. My scored was 3.4. I think that if I were 100 percent, I would of burned more energy, but that is just how life goes! Next time we have a beep test, I will be ready. "BRING IT ON"

Dan Carter Vs Quade Cooper-RWC 2011!


As many know, the top 2 goal kickers will be going head to head in the Investec Tri-nations and the Rugby World Cup!!!! Unlike other kickers, these experience players are the dominate forces that makes games irresistible to watch. Dan carter to start off, is good with the boot and is the right play maker for the AB's and the Crusaders. This year he was dearly missed after pulling his hamstring which left him stranded away from his game, Rugby. But after 4-6 weeks he recovered and boosted his way back up and is still in front of quade cooper in his kicking percentages.


Quade cooper on the other hand, has been phenomenal this year after bamboozling many players such as stepping and shockingly fended lachie munro which gave everyone shock. He as the ability to counter attack.

I reckon when these 2 athletes collide it will be like nothing before!!!

The History Of Planes

The first plane to be invented was in the year1898 by the wright brothers,The idea behind it was to see if someone could be the first one to fly.They looked exact birds in flying mode and studied it. Did you know that the first aeroplane was the ornithopters. It had 2 wings to lift itself up in the air and a thrust.


The inspiration of the wright brothers made them famous because they made the very first plane. People wonder what lifts up a plane, even I do. If you wandering what it is, it is Lift,Gravity,Thrust and Drag is the 4 sources that makes the plane fly. These four things are important because it plays their part during the flight.

One of the main parts of the plane is thrust.Thrust is used to make the plane move forward. Planes have developed over the years and have been advanced and modified. Some planes are used to Travel, Some are used for war and some are used to transport.


I have learnt a lot about planes and we are surely lucky that the Wright Brothers invented planes because How would we be transported over the world faster than a plane? Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this piece of information about the Planes invented by The “WHRIGHT BROTHERS”!!!!

A Problem Solved!


In our maths class today, our maths teacher gave us a book with many tricky questions. This was one of the equations or questions we had to answer. "Titus has 13 coins in his hands. The coins are a mixture of $5 cent and $20 cent pieces. In total, they are worth 1.55.
What are the coins?" If you are wondering how I figured it out, this it what I did.

- First of all I thought what can make thirteen, because in the question, it says that there are thirteen coins. So I went 6+7=13. 6x $20 cents=$1.20 and 7x $5 cents equals 35 cents. I added the $1.20 and 35 cents together and it was a total of $1.55! It was tricky to figure it out at first, but when I used this strategy, it became more easier!
