Spring Learning Journey: Food l Activity 15

Hi everyone! Welcome to another post, today as you may have read from the title, I am doing another activity to count for the spring learning journey. So for today's post that task that I am doing is about maths. The task is: If the answer was 100 pizzas, what could the question be? Then after doing that we have to come up with at least 3 different ways we could find this answer.

Question & Solution 1:

There were 20 pieces of pepperoni, another 20 pieces of grated cheese, 20 bottles of tomato sauce, 20 pieces of dough and 20 pieces of mozzarella cheese. How much pizza's will it make?

Count how many things there are, there are 5 things, they all have 20 pieces. So all we need to do is multiply 20 by 5. That would equal 100 because 2 x 5 equals 10 and all you need to do is at another 0.

Question & Solution 2: 

Lia had ordered 50 pizzas for a big wedding party, Xavier also bought 50 pizzas for the big wedding party. How many pizzas would there be in total?

There would be 100 because all you need to do it add them both together. - 50 + 50 = 100 - 

Question & Solution 3: 

Lee had 150 pizzas for a big company party, 50 of them were eaten. How many pizzas were Lee left with? 

The answer is 100 because it says 50 of them were eaten and he had 150 from the start so all you need to do is subtract 50 from 150. So the answer would be 100.

Well, I hope you like this post, I hope you have learnt something. Please have a great day!

Donuts!

Following on from my other wood technology post, I will be sharing with my last project for wood tech! (This year) So after the whirligig project, we had another project we had to do before the end of the term. So we had to make another structure out of a small piece of square wood. I decided it would be cool to do a doughnut as it would be decorative and cute.

So I started by cutting off the edges of the square to make it a circle, luckily I was working with who knows what to do so we cut it then filed, sand it and then we needed to make a hole in the middle. After that, we decided that we were going to paint it to make it look more like a doughnut. While the doughnut was drying we set up a stand where we could glue the doughnut in to make it stand. Here is my final result.

Easter Bunny?, no, Easter Island!!

Wow!, it has been a very long term, learning about mysteries and, creating our models for our mystery!
Keyana, Joshua, Aisa, Travis and I, worked together to make our model to teach other people what Easter Island was like or should I say "Rapa Nui!"  We have been making these creation for approximately 6 weeks "That's a pretty long time!"  Our creation is about the special statues of Easter island (Rapa Nui) they are called Moai's.  We also made it 3D , with 3D mountains  and hills.  

Planning and Learning 

First we had to learn more things about the island, (Quick Fact, the people who made them honored them to their ancestors.) We all learn't a lot of things especially the history of Easter Island.  We collected some information about moving the Moai.  We also got to see some close ups of the Moai.  Next we moved on to our planning stage, we drawled a 2D model in our Chromebooks so we know what we are doing. 

Making and Creating

It was now time for the creating part, first we had to draw then we did a whole week of paper mache,  it was really really messy.  Then we created the mountains and hills which we got a little help from our lovely teachers.  We made 3 mountains, then we half of us did some painting and some made the moai, which took a pretty long time.

Finished?  

We thought we were finished but we still weren't we still need to paint the mountains and hills.  We double checked our plan and we made sure we were finished.

"Yay! Yay!"
