Pick-a-path

We have been making Pick-a-Path stories click the link to go and do my wonderful horror story of a creepy thing in your room. We first had to write up a plan on paper then we got the choice to write it up on google forms or google slides. Then after that we added lots of detail the story.

Narrative

I have had fun in writing creating this narrative I really like it but there was a lot of planning we had to do for it, and lot's of editing to do after it. Here it is:

Electronics-Tech

I have now finished my light box here is my slide:

Electronics-Tech

At the moment we are making emergency lights. I am making mine on a box so I can keep things in it. First, we had to drill holes in it so we could put the lights in. Then once the lights were in we had to mark out which was the long legs and which were the short legs, we did that with Vivid. Then we had to solder the long legs to the copper tape which was stuck beside the lights. Now I am working on soldering the resistors to the short legs so we can stick on the copper tape
Here is what it looks like so far:

Snail Race (Maths)

What I found out during the game:

Seven is winning mostly closely followed by five and six.

One and Twelve aren't moving at all.

Two, Three, Four and Eleven  are moving but very slowly.

Eight, Nine and Ten are following behind Five and six.

First Place:

Six

Second Place:

Seven

Third Place:

Eight

After the game:

Six and seven were winning the whole game and five was coming third but in the end eight over taked five and came third.

One and Twelve still didn’t move the whole game.

Nine was close behind eight the whole way.

There are a lot of ways to make seven and six so it always has a good chance of winning.

But the numbers that were slower than others like four, three and two and eleven don’t have a lot of ways they only have one or two ways.

One, with two dice is impossible to make and twelve is hard to make because it needs two six’s.  

1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10	11	12
-	1-1	1-2	1-3	1-4	1-5	1-6	2-6	3-6	4-6	5-6	6-6
			2-2	2-3	2-4	2-5	3-5	4-5	5-5
					3-3	3-4	4-4

The next day we visited this again. We drew up another table in our books and we found out that 7 is actually the best number, it has more chances of winning than any other number.

Mandarin learning

Yesterday in mandarin we learnt about the chinese zodiac which is a chinese tradition. All the years are named after the 12 animals each animal has it's own year.

The rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog and last but not least the pig. They are all the 12 animals that won the race...
A wizard called all the animals down the to river and said we will have a race across the river! All of the animals were excited apart from the rat and the cat they were sacred because they hate water. But willing to get the price - a chance to have you named after a year- in the end The rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog and the pig came in the top twelve in that order and they had a year named after them
