Reflection W2T3

Reflection
This week we have been busy learning lots of things, such as making our worm farm, learning about probability, doing graphs and a lot more.

Maths
This week we have been learning about making graphs. Kaleb and I made a pie graph about our classes favourite Super Rugby teams ahead of the Crusaders vs Lions final on Saturday. Here is our graph. We have also been learning about probability which we will carry on with next week.








Topic.
For topic Kaleb, Alex and I have been making a worm farm along with our school caretaker's help. It is made from a old sink and frames made of wood. To start we are getting some coconut fibre and soil to home around 400 tiger worms. We are really excited. We have been collecting food scraps from classrooms to feed the worms.

  1. Kia ora, William!
    I think your idea of making a worm farm is great - to be able to do it all from scratch yourselves is a great skill to learn. I can't wait to see if the worm 'wees' actually improves the growth of the plants. If it does, I may have to make one of these at home as my vegetables never seem to thrive too well. Thanks for taking Rata 5 out to see your worm farm as now they know why they have been saving the food scraps for you. I would really like to see maybe a slide showing the steps how to make it, just in case, I do decide to make one.
    Thanks for sharing this on your blog,

  2. Hi Will

    This is a great blog post, you have given a great 'round up' of what has been happening in Totara 3. Your survey of which super rugby team is the favourite is clearly displayed on a pie graph and I like that you have also included the percentage. I would have to choose Crusaders as my favourite team! It has certainly been an interesting time organising the worm farm, it was great that you guys rang the garden centre to find out about the 'tiger worms'. How is the worm doing? Are you remembering to collect all the food scrapes!!
