Golf Ball Challenge

How did going through the same challenge twice change your planning? Then I had more background knowledge on the challenge.

How did the chance to try again make you feel? I think it made me feel good because now after the second try I could do the challenge and I got it!

How did the chance to try again help your team? Hurt your team? I think it helped my team because we all had really good ideas. I don’t think that it hurt my team by doing it again.

What have you learned about yourself as a team member? I think I have learned that I am a leader and good at making everyone’s voice is heard.

Would you like to try past challenges again? One word DEFINITELY I think that because if I tried all of the challenges again I think that I would have a lot more success in the challenges.

First Chicken Plan

How did your research guide your plan? My research guided my plan by showing me what to do. Then I won’t be guessing when we start mummifying the chickens.

What information do you still need to find? I still need to find how much pounds of salt you need to put in each step.

What new information did you find as you planned? I found in all you need two 25 pounds of salt.

How do you think this plan will work with your group members? Because we will all have similar plans so it will be easier to discuss about our plan.

How can you make sure every person’s voice is heard in the group? We can give each person in  our group roles while we are doing the steps.

Update on Math Tutorial

Last week, we had the chance to give each other feedback on our tutorials. Based on the feedback I got, if I were to do this tutorial again this is what I would do differently.  One I would explain what the least common multiple is and what 18/15th’s is as a mixed number and how I got the mixed number. Last what is a denominator.

 

So here is what the answer to those questions are. One A least common multiple is the least number that can be multiplied with your denominators.  18/15th’s as a mixed number is 1 3/15th’s. I got that by saying 18 goes into 15 one time so 1 then when I subtract 18-15 it equals 3 so three then the denominator always stays the same so 1 3/15th’s.

Adding fractions with unlike denominators

Last week we learned how to add fractions with unlike denominators. Me and ngoldenberg23’s question is 4/5 + 6/15.

First, you have to find the least common multiple. That will be your denominator for adding. Then you have to find the denominator. Our denominator is 15 because 3×5 is 15 and it is also the denominator of 6/15 which is one of our numbers. Finally, you add 6/15 + 12/15 which is 18/15 so that is your answer.

E.T.C Reflection

What growth have I seen in my self and in others.  For myself I have seen improvement for  really listening to others and their ideas. I also have seen in myself I have always had a growth mindset in our team challenges. A example for that is when we were doing the pringles challenge I never got any of my team mates down. For others I have seen people being kind to others. An example for when I have seen that was when one of my friends got down they said “Hey it’s okay it’s just for fun.

 

 

High Holiday Reflection

Why did I pick my topic forgiveness? I picked my topic because whenever I look at the Amidah  I always  think about forgiveness.

What was a main idea that I learned that I did not know before? I learned that Eva Kor forgave a Nazi, and that Nazi killed her sister.

What did I find interesting and enjoy about doing my project? I found that you can forgive someone anytime even if it is 20 years later or even more. I enjoyed researching and finding new things about my project.

How did doing my project enhance or influence my high holiday experience.  It helped because now every time we have Yom Kippur I know what it is really about.
