Solving linear equations

Position and Orientation

RED OCTOBER

Today you are going to draw a map of the Norwegian Ravine in the Atlantic Ocean from
the instructions that I am about to give you (Copymaster 1). The important thing here is
that you should end up at the right place and not hit the sides of the Ravine.
So I will give you co-ordinates and bearings so that you can construct a map of the Ravine.

ACTIVITY 1

ACTIVITY 2

ACTIVITY 3
Create your own pathway for someone to draw.

Success criteria:

• You must use at least 5 different angles
• You must use compass directions only e.g north east
• You must use labelled axis

1. Facing north turn 83° east from 0,0 and move 6.3Km
2. Turn 75° west and move 5Km
3. Turn 264° east and move 9.4 Km
4. Turn 221° east and move 9.3Km
5. Turn 270° east and move 0.3Km
6. Turn 36° west and move 7.2Km
7. Turn 345° east and move 7Km
8. Turn 50° east and move 3.6Km
9. Turn 160° west and move 5.1Km
10. Turn 61° east and move 7.3Km
11. Turn 142° east and move 6.8Km
12. Turn 227° west and move 9.5 Km
13. Turn 13° west and move 0.5Km

Self Reflection:

What did you do well, what are your next steps (related to position and orientation)?

I think I did my co-ordinates and directions correctly, by making them clear and showing what to
do easily.
My next steps will probably be to learn more about how to use a protractor, because in my

instructions I didn't realise that you had to hold the protractor vertically the whole time.

Term 3 passion project

Maths Week

We were asked to make the longest, Fastest and Tallest marble run of all. Ours went around 2 meters high, 10 Kilometers a hour and about 2.7 meters long. I made this with Nico W, Jack W and Jack S.

This is a representation of the town of Kaiapoi. I made this along with Jack S, Nico W and many more.
My part of making kaiapoi was to make Blackwells.

I was asked to make a tesalation out of plastic blocks, here is what I made.

We got asked to make chalk drawings on the concrete. I made many different shapes along with a very very very very long line going around the whole reserve, with Jack S, Seth L and Max D.

Group 5 Stats Sample

Level 3 Learning Outcomes:

- gain information from a variety of data displays.

- be aware of the type of data each display is appropriate for and the kind of pattern/relationship it best communicates.

- link others’ claims with the appropriateness of displays used.

Level 4 Learning Outcomes:

- consider features of others’ statistical investigations including appropriateness of sampling methods, quality of data collection, data collection and the extent to which evidence supports claims.

Gathering and Analysing Data:

How long does it take for each Group 5 student to do 20 star jumps?

My Data:

17, 13, 14, 11, 13, 14, 13, 14, 16, 11, 14, 13, 13, 12, 15, 13, 13, 12, 15, 12,

17, 16, 15, 15, 14, 14, 14, 14, 13, 13, 13, 13, 13, 13, 13, 12, 12, 12, 11 and 11

Analysing my data:

The fastest time was:

11

The slowest time was:

17

Range:

6   17 - 11

Mode:

13   -7

Median:

13

Mean:

 13.4

The combined time:

268Mins

READING OTHERS INVESTIGATIONS:

The information I have gathered from this graph is: that in the year 2000
the bear population in emerald forest was 40 and in 2006 there was
140. So i believe that there was a massive breeding in 2002

The information I have gathered from this graph is that the most popular pet is cat

because it has eleven and the least popular pet is rabbit because it has 4

The information I have gathered from this graph is: people over 45
like classical music music more than any other age

The information I have gathered from this graph is: that people love coke classic
more than Pepsi, diet coke, Dr pepper and Sprite
