Speech writing


We are learning to create and write our own speech that will capture the audience attention.
During this session we learnt that, you have at least 7 seconds to get your audiences attention,and at least  30 seconds to whether they will listen or not, we also had to start with a powerful statement, personal story or a thought provoking question . Our speech was based on graffiti, tell us... Is Graffiti art or Vandalism??

Our draft is made out of cardboard and our real pencil holders are made out of a type of cardboard. Our designs are going really well Angelo and Noah is making Pokemon.

Mean,Median,mode,range

Statistics                                                           name: Hosea

WALT- Identify the mean, median and mode within a collection of data

Activity One
Answer the questions in a different colour

The definition of the mean in a statistical investigation is commonly referred to as the average. It is the total of all the data divided by the amount of data shown.
For example: if we have this range of data 3,5,7,1,2,3,6,8

3+5+7+1+2+3+6+5  = 32  = 4
             8                      8

  1. Find the mean in this set of numbers:
3,7,8,4,2,6,5,4,3,9 = 51÷10 = 5 r 1
  1. Find the mean in the set of numbers
4,12,5,6,11,9,5 = 52 ÷ 7 = 7 r 3
  1. Find the mean in this tally chart

  1. Find the mean in this set of numbers
24,12,16,18  70 ÷ 4 = 17 r 2
  1. Find the mean in this set of numbers
5,9,12,4,10,7  47 ÷ 6 = 7.r5
  1. CHALLENGE QUESTION: Find the mean within this data, use the frequency table to help you
1,5,5,2,1,2,5,5,5,5,1,2,1,5,5 50 ÷ 15 = 3 r 5

Activity Two
Answer the questions in a different colour

The definition of the median is the middle number within a set of numbers that have been put in order from size (biggest to smallest or smallest to biggest)
For example: 2,6,4,1,9 = 1,2,4,6,9 and the middle number is 4.
BUT say if there is more than one middle number… the median is found by taking the number midway between the middle pair of numbers:
3,6,1,4,9,2 = 1,2,3,4,6,9 → 3 + 4 = 3.5
                                             2

Find the median in these sets of numbers

  1. 10,14,17,12,19,11,16
  2. 10,11,12,14,16,17,19 = 14

  1. 34,42,37,31,40 = 37
  2. 31,34,37,40,42

  1. 101, 167,138,124,198,149  = 143.5
  2. 101,

  1. 54, 58,52,57,53,60 =55.5
  2. 52,53,54,57,58,60

  1. 1001, 1094, 1023, 1065, 1038, 1027, 1042 =1038
  2. 1001,1023,1027,1038,1042,1065,1094

  1. Find the median within this tally chart

10,12,4,8,2 =9
2,4,8,10,12







Activity Three
The mode is the most frequent number in a set of data. The number that occurs most often.
For example: In a set of numbers 3, 7, 8, 4, 2, 6, 5, 4, 3, 9 there is two modes, 3 and 4 because they appear twice in the data set.
Note- There can either be 0, 1 or 2 modes. If there are 3 or more numbers occur the same number of times, there is no mode.

Find the mode in these sets of numbers
  1. 2, 1, 5, 3, 7, 8, 5, 3 ,9 = 3 , 5
  2. 1, 5, 3, 2, 9 ,4, 1, 6, 8, 0  = 1
  3. 23, 45, 78, 12, 45, 67, 32, 46, 93, 12 = 12
  4. 101, 121, 123, 145, 167, 121, 139, 145, 176= 121
  5. 394, 273, 219, 294, 183, 291, 273, 288, 271 = 273


range


  1. 32, 34, 37, 40,41 =9
  2. 92, 94, 96, 98,100 = 8
  3. 69, 72, 74, 76,79,80 =11
  4. 52,54,55,57,58 = 6
  5. 111,112,115,120,125 =14

Why our intervals should be longer?

Todays title is going to be why our intervals should be longer… Why should it be longer? Because most of our time is spent learning but we could just do homework at home. Isn't that what wifi is for? Why can’t our intervals be longer, is it because they want us to learn more?.

Reason one. it may affect our learning, but how can we solve this problem?. Our morning tea should start earlier than it normally starts and our lunch should also be earlier. students love to talk to each other in class, most teachers get annoyed and tell them of give three strikes or even Re-Think.

Another reason kids should have longer intervals is because they might want to play outside longer or they might want to play Basketball longer. Some people have been asking why our intervals are short and why can’t they make it longer.

My last reason why students and kids should have longer intervals is because when students ask teachers to go to the toilet they go toilet but when they see their friends they play around and muck around in the toilets. Then end up getting in trouble.

I hope every body agrees with me and I hope that we get longer intervals

IKAN test



Today I did the IKAN test. It felt easier on our netbooks then watching it on the big screen. My results for my Ikan test was 28 out of 40. I did much better than I did last year.

I think I could've Improve more if I learnt more.
