Handshake

Problem Solving

LI: To use my number knowledge to help me choose the best strategy to solve this problem

Work with a friend to solve this problem from the transum website. Once you have done this you will need to make a screen recording to show your thinking.

Which means that the answer is 351

Explain:

There are 27  students in room 9, and if 2 students shook hands with each other that would relate to 1 handshake. So if 3 students shook hands that would calculate up to 3 handshakes and you keep going, the answer would be 351.

Answer: 351

This is a maths problem solving activity that Asmah and I have done. It was to calculate how many handshakes will there be with 27 students in Room 9 A.K.A. Awesome class.
Asmah and I have worked collaboratively.

Rapids

Rapids

LI: To identify the rhyme in the poem

At the early day of springBeyond forest where nightingale will sing
Beyond castle of a ghost of forest king
The great river started as a lively spring

The river in tributaries grew
Pushing it way through
Carving canyons and valleys too
So strong on very canvas of earth it drew

But soon this awesome run turns into mild jog
The river winds disappearing somewhere in a fog
It turns into a large bog
Barely strong enough to push a log

The swamp is vital to ecology
And it’s secretive and full of majesty
But I miss river’s intensity
On my soul it left enchantment and history

I admire its beauty
As I watch I feel something eerie
And I think I hope to use that history
To change the very momentum of chaos and biology

The River

The River

LI: To explore the emotion and metaphor in the poem

The River’s a wanderer,

A nomad, a tramp

He doesn’t choose one place

To set up his camp

The River’s a winder

Through valley and hill

He twists and he turns

He just cannot be still

The River’s a hoarder

And he buries down deep

Those little treasures

That he wants to keep

The River’s a baby

He gurgles and hums

He sounds like he’s happily

Sucking his thumbs

The River’s a singer

As he dances along

The countryside echoes

The notes of his song

The River’s a monster

Hungry and vexed

He’s gobbled up trees

And he’ll swallow you next
