I Am Hope

Kia ora. At Paihia School a man named Tai came in and talked to us about how to help people with there mental Health the best part of Tai’s speech was when he was talking about his past because it was interesting. I learnt that everyone has their own conversation in their head and that there is a negative voice inside of your head that when you are depressed or angry, the negative voice will kick in and tell you negative things. Tai also told the class to ask people how they are doing so you can cheer them up I will ask people how they feel in the future to try and cheer them up. Have you ever cheered someone up by asking them how they feel?

 

Ngahau Dot Plot

Kia ora. In Te Ngahere the whole class has been learning about dot plots. Dot plots are a type of graph that use dots as the data. For example in this pdf (winning dots) they have a dot plot and they are trying to measure the distance and the range of room 1 and room 2 ball throwing skills. When I was doing my DLO about this pdf (winning dots). I did not know what range meant. I thought that range meant the distance of the ball that traveled. But now I know what it means. The way you find the range is you have to get the lowest number and the biggest number and subtract the smaller number by the bigger number and the answer equals the range. Example if someone threw the ball 3 meters and someone else threw the ball 15 meters you do 15-13=12 so 12 is the range. I also could improve my DLO by explaining what the range meant clearer. Did you know what a dot plot was before you read my post?
