Maths

At the moment I am building a scale model of the queens park band rotunda. I am making it out of paper and it is 65 times smaller than the actual band rotunda so the scale is 0.015:1. It is really difficult to scale down the model 65 times smaller then they are because it's not an even number like 10,20,30 etc.                                                 (Not my model)

Habits of mind

Today at Enrich I did a workshop called habits of mind with Alana and I did a puppet show with Caleb on managing impulsivity. When we did the play we had to state if managing impulsivity was a person where he would live,what he would eat,what actions would they do and what words it uses.I used six small animal finger  puppets and Caleb used one big hand puppet that was a wolf. If we presented it again I would like to speak louder and more clearly.

Scaling down the band rotunda

Today at Enrich I started to build a 20:1 model of the Queens Park band rotunda using popsicle sticks and pipe cleaners. I only got up to building the steps of the band rotunda and it is more complicated than I thought building a scale model of something because you have to measure it then you have to divide it by a certain number. The tallest step was 29 popsicle sticks high (when they were stacked flat)! I think the hardest part of the band rotunda was making the circle that the popsicle sticks were on by using pii.

Debating

Today at Enrich I did a workshop called debating. I was on the team called affirmative and we were debating about how having one car is better than two or three. One of our reasons was pollution and one of our other reasons is the cost of running it and repair time. My team won 11-6 and I scored one of our teams points. You got a point for a good rebut or a good statement.
Please tell me your opinion about whether having one car is better than two cars in a family.
