We toke some photos of us to use as costumes for the ghosts and we have completed the code so the ghost follows Pac-Alex and tried to make the scoring.

We had the challenge of trying to make the ghost follow Pac-Alex because we had to use some coding blocks we hadn't used before.

Geometry - Week 4 Maths Sample

During Maths week (week 4), we have been focussing on Geometry. We had a choice of 10 different Geometry based activities. We needed to select 5 different activities and provide evidence when completed. 

The evidence I collected:

What I enjoyed about this maths week was:

That we got to choose what we wanted to try instead of having set tasks to do because I only did the ones that I thought sounded a bit fun.

What challenged me during this week:

That some of the stations were very crouded on the first day so I couldn't really go to them.

My next step in Geometry is:

Attempting some of the harder sheets and challenging myself so that I learn more.
