Week 3 Reflection: Tennis Tournament

On Tuesday I competed in the Southland Primary School Tennis Competition. I did this because I decided to enter my schools trial and came out second in the boys category which meant the school would enter me in the competition. I did this because I enjoy sports (especially tennis). I one a game and lost a couple of games. I learnt how to judge how the wind effects where the ball is going to bounce so next time when there is a lot of wind I am going to use it to my advantage.

Week 7 Reflection: Chunking

In the last weeks I have been learning a strategy in maths which is 'chunking'. Chunking is a method for 2-4 digit multiplication. The purpose was thatI could have another strategy under my belt for later in life. Now when I am figuring out math problems one of the strategies I am going to use is chunking.
