This is my Graph on whose Cable car went the furtherest in Room 5 : Nicola

This is my Graph on whose Cable car went the furthest in Room 5 : My cable car went 6.10 metres. Teagan went the same distance as mine. Fine's cable car measured the shortest distance which was 3 metres. Alazay had 3.6 metres. The third shortest distance was Addnan. He had 4.56 metres. The longest distance was from Tyler's Cable Car which travelled 8 metres. After him was Tim, he was pretty close to Tyler's score, it was 7.86 metres in distance. In third place ( Of the Highest number ) was Liantre, hers was 7 metres . 59 centre metres! Wow I wish I could of had the highest number. Well, at least it fun. I figured out that the more air that's in the balloon makes it bigger, and the bigger the furthermore it will go.

Reflecting on my Origami Crane: Nicola




Reflecting on my Origami Crane

Please write detailed answers, as reflecting helps you build understanding with your learning.

1. Are you pleased with your origami crane? why?
Yes, I am very pleased with my crane, because the top of it
which is sort of the back part is all puffy.



2. What part did you find easy? why / why not?
Well, the folding at the start when I halved the paper and then folded the paper into quarters was pretty easy. I knew how to do this, I thought folding it into a triangle was easy, pulling the
wings, all of the folding parts that are easy..... are easy.

3. What part did you find tricky / difficult? Why / why not?
The tricky part was after the middle part of folding, the halving and quartering because I have had experience in the past and that origami is one of the things I can do depending on what type it is.

4. Who / What helped you in making your Origami Crane?
Miss Paton, Pace ( a student ), and Mrs Kelly. Also Miss Paton’s
instructions a little bit. I was grateful to have help along the way.

5. What would you do differently next time? Think about folding, listening, persistence (not giving up) etc.
listen more, focus more, try to understand more.
I know my crane came out alright, but there will always be
something I need to work on.
