Mia gets busy solving a problem

I worked with Xuan to solve a problem that involved creating a repeating pattern.

Problem Solving

In room 35 this morning we got into partners to solve some problems that involved searching for a pattern.

We completed one as a class first.

Problem 1 - complete the following   1    2     4    ____   ____

Working in pairs we came up with a range of different solutions that could use this pattern

1.    1    2    4    5   7      Peru and Charlotte 

2.     1  2   4     8    16        Ella, Augie and Zoe

3.     1    2   4     1     2       Cooper and Peryn

4.     1     2    4    16     256     Austin and William

Can you see what we did ??????

 

We also then had a go at solving some problems as a team, you will see video footage of this to follow :)

DNA is little parts in your body that is in each bubble that floats around in your body. You look like your parents and your siblings because they are sharing your DNA. Each DNA tell your life. For a example, if you are smart, you might have a DNA that makes you smart. Dna is so tiny that you can't even see it! If you don't have any DNA, you won't be alive. DNA is a very important part of your body. Ichigo




DNA contains all the infomation needed to build your body. Every cell in our body contains DNA. It stands for Deoxyribonucleic Acid. Did you know you have around 20,000 DNA genes in your body?
