Summer's two minutes two make a diffrence video response post

FIRST DRAFT



FINAL DRAFT



Group Members- Summer Temple

This is my two minutes two make a difference response on how my video changed from the first draft to the final draft.

My first draft had allot of spelling errors and i was missing a few pieces to it. but after i watched it and read the responses to it i changed some things like fixed the spelling and put more information into it. the final draft is far better than the first one but not as good as i would have liked it because i did not have an interview. the reason for that was because i emailed someone from the Winnipeg humane society some questions but did not get answers in time for the final copy of the movie. the greatest skill i got from this movie was probably finding out so much more information on animal cruelty and the skills it takes to make a movie. but i also learned about allot of great sites i can go to to find out more on animal cruelty or if i am doing another movie project i know were i can get music for it and how to make the movie all together. some things that frustrated me were that i could not get my voice in to the movie because it either wanted me to have music or narration but not both. so that was a big problem. i will make a difference in the future by making sure that everyone is aware of animal cruelty so that they too can take action because it is just so sad to see these poor animals suffer.

Summer's Term Two Reflectionand

Listen!


In term two we learned about volume, percent, and surface area. I did pretty well but struggled at first. i will do better this term by leaving more comments and studying for tests. i learned the formula for volume pi x r x r x h or pi x r *2 x h that's for a cylinder. For a triangular prism its b x h /2 x h. And for rectangular prism its l x w x h. In percent we learned about converting percent. And for surface area we learned the formulas for finding circumference, diameter and radius.a cylinders formulas are: for the circumference its pi x 2 = c for diameter its r x 2 = d for the radius its d / 2 = r and to find the area its pi x c = a. the formulas for a triangular prism are: b x h / 2 and l x w. And lastly for rectangular prism its l x w. And that is my term 2 reflection.

Summer's Great Big Book Of Intergers

Chapter one: Grade 7 integers review

Integers
- number line
- integer chips
- zero pair



























- negative and positive numbers

Integers










































- Number line


Song:
"When subtracting something that isn't there use a zero pair"



Find the zero pairs for the following integers

-6 +10 -16 63
+6 -10 +16 -63


-11 +11

+ 14 -14

19 -19


integers Ala grade 7

have 4 owe 4
(+4) + (-4) = O

Brackets are training wheels.
Standard form:

+4 + -4
+4 -4

pure standard form:
4 -4

























3 -2 = Subtraction = adding a negative integer.











Questions:

-3 - (-7) = -10

-3 - 7 = 10

3 - 7 = -4

3 + 7 = 10

-3 + 7 = 4


Chapter 2 multiplying integers:

multiplying integers:

(+2) x (+3) = +6

(2) x (3) = 6

(2) (3) = 6 2 (3) = 6
standard form





(=2) x (+3) = 6

or

2 groups of ( +3) = 6










( +2) x (-3) = -6

or

2 groups of (-3) = -6











(-2) x (+3)

(+3) x (-2) = -6

remove 2 groups of (+3)
(use zero pairs)









( -2) x (-3)
remove 2 groups of (-3) = +6















(-3) x (-4) = + 12











(+2) x (+4) = +8

(+5) x (-2) = -10

(+4) x (+2) = -8 - 4 x 2 for zero pairs remove (+) left with (-)

(-6) x (-1) = -6




Sign Rule: (negative signs)

Even: when you have an even number of negative factors the product is positive.

Odd: when you have an odd number of negative factors the product is negative.




Chapter 3 dividing integers:

Partitive division using a number line:

6 / 2 =

















-6 / (-2) =


















Quatative Division:

(-6) / 2 = -3


Multiplicative Inverse:

6 / (-2) = 4

Sign Rule for Division: using

6 / 2 = 3

-6 / (-2) = -4

(-6) + 2 = -4

6 / (-2) = 4



Chapter 4 order of operations with integers:

explain how to solve this:

(+5) x (-3) + (-6) / (+3) =

[(+5) x (-3)] + [(-6) / (+3)] =

-8 + -17 = -25

first add extra brackets then do the problems that are inside the extra brackets then add the two numbers that came from the extra brackets together and you have your answer.

Summer's Volume Scribe

Mr. Chin bought a box of small building blocks for his four children.
He will give an equal number to each of them. What volume of blocks
will each child get?
V = L x W x H
V = 40 x 20 x 24 = 19200 cm
V = 19200 / 4 = 4800 cm
V = 4800 cm

Each child will get 4800 cm of the brick of building blocks.

How many ways of finding the volume are there?
Cylinder volume and volume problems














Answer:
first we have to find the radius

d / 2 = r
0.26 / 2 = 0.13
r= 0.13

now we can find the volume

V= (pi x r x r) x h =
V= (3.14 x 0.13 x 0.13) x 2.4 =
V= 0.053066 x 2.4
V= 0.1273584




















Answer:
a) V= (pi x r x r) x h =
V= (3.14 x 25 x 25) x 95=
V= 1.962.5 x 95=
V= 186.437.5

b) 5 x 24 = 120
186.437.5 x 120 =
223.725

c) the garbage can should be filled 1* 1/2 cans should be filled every day

Summer's Final percent post

This chapter was all about percent. 4.1-representing percents, 4.2-fractions,decimals, and percents, 4.3-percent of a number, and 4.4-combining percents. In 4.1

Percents was pretty easy for me. At first it was tricky but after a while i finally got it. and it wasn't that hard. i will now summarize percent.Add Image

4.1- representing percents this section of the chapter was all about how you can represent percents in different ways for example lets say you have a percent like 45% well you could use a hundred grid to show it like this,
and if you have a number greater than 100% you use more than one hundred grid like this example: 170%

4.2-fractions,decimals, and percents this section of the chapter is all about different ways of showing the same number example: 1/2% = 0.5% or 150% = 150/100 = 1.5 or 1 1/2.



4.3- percent of a number this section was all about using mental math strategies such as halving, doubling, and dividing by ten to find the percents of some numbers. So to find the percent of a number , write the percent as a decimal then multiply by the number.
example: 12 1/2% of 50 = 0.125 x 50
= 6.25


4.4- combining percents this last section of the chapter was all about well combining percents. Percents can be combined by adding to solve problems.
5% + 7% = 12%
You can also add the combined percent amount to the original number.
example: 12% of 100 = 0.12 x 100 = 12
100 + 12= 112.

Sorry my percent video would not load.

Summer's Pay it Forward

Part 1:

Pay it forward is an idea that if one person does something nice for three people then those three people do something nice for three people each and so on and so on. Eventually it turns into a big huge idea. And all it takes is one person to start it and small favors to continue it.

Part 2:

My pay it forward act of kindness was donating a bag of dog food to an Animal Rescue Centre called D'Arcy ARC. I chose this activity because i love animals and have pets so that was something that i feel strongly about and felt good doing. I helped allot of the workers and the animals. I helped the workers because they are always looking for donations so they can continue to rescue animals. I helped the animals because they have food because of me. I did my act of kindness on Saturday, December, 18, 2010.

Part 3:
My act of kindness went great it felt so good to do that them i felt liked i helped everyone at that shelter. Not just the dogs that will get the food but the workers and the cats. I got there and gave them the food and got a picture and when i was giving it in one of the workers went to the door and there was a taped up box with a cat in it. Someone just left the box and ran. I felt so bad, for that poor cat. but getting left there is better than leaving it on the street. I felt really good doing that it makes me so happy to now that i helped someone. They reacted happily and were thankful that they got that dog food. I did not ask the people to pay it forward but i taped a card shaped like a bone to the bag of dog food that said pay it forward. But they didn't ask about the card.

Part 4:
Pay it forward is an important idea because people and animals need our help and not everyone can afford clothes, food,and to go to school. But were lucky enough and need to share our good fortune especially around the holidays. I think my act of kindness made a difference because it helped people and animals.

Summers textbook awnsers

(textbook answers 3, 7, 11, 13)


For number three i got:

I think that Shindi meant that if the part that your not counting in the percentage is shaded it would be easier to figure out the percentage.

Here are my guesses to the ones i think are easier with coloring in the non percentage part.

1. 60%



2. 10%

3. 20%

Those are some examples of ones that would be easier to read if the other part was highlighted.


For number seven i got:


A)attendance- 3.2%


B) Singapore cat:Siberian tiger-0.13%

C) Yukon river: Frasier river-230%




For eleven i got:

1) Alberta-113%




2) Saskatchewan-100%




For number thirteen i got:

A) To convert 1/3 to a fraction the equation would be 1 divided by 3=0.3333333333333.
1/3 can be shown on a hundred chart by dividing one square into three pieces and coloring in one.


B) Sometimes repeating decimals are harder to show on a hundred chart because you have to convert it.


Sorry about the video it wouldn't load.

Scribe 4

17. A fridge magnet has an area of 54 mm 2. Is 54 a perfect square? Use prime factorization to find the answer.

54=2x3x3x3, No 54 is not a perfect square, its an odd number- factors 2 and 3


19.The gym teacher told the students to run twice around the perimeter of the school field. The area of the square field is 28 900 m 2. What distance did the students run?

1360 m


21.Kate wants to put a patio in her backyard. the patio stones each have an area of 1m 2. she created the rectangular design shown.

A) What is the area of the patio?

B) What are the 5 dimensions of another
rectangular patio she could build
with the same area?

C) Kate decides to make a patio with the
same area but she wants it to be a square
with whole number side lengths. Is this
possible? Explain your reasoning.

A) 56 m 2

Summer's Math Profile

Hi my name is Summer If someone asks me if i like math, I tell them if i could design a shirt the front would say I Love Math then the back would say Just Kidding :) The best thing i ever did in math were math games. I liked them because we learn but also have fun doing it.

The best unit that we did last year was fractions. I did well in this unit because it was easiest for me and i found it fun.drawing the fractions is easiest. The unit that made me struggle most was divisibility. To do better this year i will going to ask for help more often.

This year i will listen carefully and practice my multiplucation table so i can be more succsesful. this year i would like to learn more on fractions, units, divisibility.

Last year i blogged my favorite blog i did was on problibility. If you go to the link mines the one about the coins in the cup. Blogging helped me become a better student because you have to look at it even more carefully because you are typing it out. I want to do more blogging and commenting.
