Excellence Care Values 7

By Anonymous
At student council we met and changed some aspects of the Ice Cream Day. Mrs Trotter came in and questioned us about some aspects about the day that she didn't think would work like "what do we do with the leftovers?", "How many people will buy it?", "What happens if we give them too much choice?", "How much would they pay for the ice cream?", "What day will it be on?"
We all discussed all these questions and changed aspects accordingly. We ended up deciding on three flavours which were Double Chocolate, Boysenberry Ripple and Vanilla instead of the 8 we had before. The day we also decided on was Tuesday the 26th of September, which was on the last week of the term as it would be hotter than the rest of the term since it was closer to summer. We also decided on how we would see how much people would buy it by creating an order form, where all the students had to order their ice cream ahead of time and we asked the year 6's to create the order form. The leadership quality I showed was Trustworthy because they had to trust the year 7 and 8's that we would organize this event and the care value I showed was Active Thinking since we adjusted our plans to her suggestions.

Merit Care Values 2

By Anonymous
Technology This Thursday when we went to technology. For this pentad, my group is in the science block. For science we learn about the periodic table and the science process. This week we decided to test how far an egg could drop before it would crack. We had four eggs and went up by 5cm every time an egg survived the drop. 2 of the eggs only went up to 10cm before cracking and the 2 other eggs ended up getting to a meter before cracking. After that we ended up making a bar graph showing our results and the average. The care values I think I showed this week was Active Thinking, as we had to use our brains to make a hypothesis and make us think outside the box for when we started dropping eggs.

WALT: Reason with linear proportions

By Anonymous
WALT: Combine simple proportions to work out what parts the whole is made up in a unit We learnt how to calculate percentage increase and decrease. If you want to calculate percentage increase, you have to find the percentage difference between the two numbers you are comparing and divide the difference by the original number and then times it by 100 and convert that decimal into a percentage. For example: What is the percent of decrease of 16 to 14? The way you would solve this is find the difference between the original number and the new one. 16 - 14 = 2. Divide 2 by 16 which equals 0.125. Multiply that by 100 and it equals 12.5%, So its a 12.5% decrease. WALT: Combine proportions to work out what parts are whole is made up of using non multiples of 10. We learnt how to calculate how much the percentage increased or decreased in number. The way I did this was I found the percentage and if it was an increase: added it onto the 100, and if it was a decrease: subtra...
