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

"Trash"

In class we are reading a book called trash. It is about three boys and they find a wallet. it's got some valuable thing in there. But the police want it, and where they live the police are dangerous and will do anything for the wallet. So the three boys had to hide the wallet somewhere. They had to hide it so the police would not get it. In the wallet there was a clue so the boys followed it to the translation. When they get back the police take one of the boys away and beat him to tell them where the wallet is but he doesn't. One of the clues in the translation was a guy at the jail would help them out. So on eof the boys went and tried to find out anything he can.

Yoga

I didn't do this yoga because of my foot but I watched; what a site! They were going on  trip through the jungle. Starting by a hug with mum, and finishing with a saving the jungle from a volcano! It was really fun to watch especially the great jungle cry! here is some photos:

Over all even if I didn't do (I wish I did) it was a really exciting experience.
