Tech (Robotics)

LI: To learn the basics of how to code an mbot.


As it is currently level 2 of the lock down we carried on like it was like a normal school day and went to tech at Tamaki College. For tech we had a new subject which was robotics and our teacher for today was Miss Ferguson. With robotics we were given a mbot which is a type of coding robot. Mbot can do all sorts of things like move in different shapes and move forwards and backwards. First we learn the basics of how to code an Mbot. The movements that we had to put in out Mbot was to make it move into a square which is not hard. We had to precisely get it to move at a 90* angle then do it again until it reaches its starting point. Then at the end of your coding to make it more interesting we had to make a victory dance when it reaches the end so it can be proud of its self for making it.

Fishing Maths Problem

L.I: Is to find the most affection way to solve a strategies.
This week for maths I had to make a google drawing to solve a really simple equation. This question was kind of tricky but at the end I got there. I worked with Chris, which was the best choice since we both had the same ideas about the question. We also included the rule which was Multiplying the number by three then subtracting 1 from it.
