COMPUTER LAB!!!

     Today we practiced angles and 3D and 2D shapes on Bitesize Math.  The 2D shapes game was called "The Legends of Dick and Dom: 2D shapes". In that game we had to answer a various number of questions. When all the puzzles are done a door opens and there you can choose a special bottle. The 3D shape game is a futuristic game about getting rid of the bad guys by answering questions. The angles game was based on robots taking over the world. You have to defeat them by solving angle problems. These games will help me a lot on the CST testing. These games are helping me with my math a lot. For example, I really didn't get this one angle problem but with a little explaining I was able to answer it. I'm hoping we get to do things like this next week in Tech Lab.

COMPUTER LAB!!!!!!!!!!!

       Today in computer lab we got to review math subjects like, the measures of central tendency, diagrams, and probability. One game is called The Legend of Dick and Dom which focuses on frequency diagrams. Another is a mean, median, mode, and range challenge called Bamzooki. But, my favorite would have to be another Bamzooki which would was on probability. In the game you got to type in the chance of a creature winning a race, and if you got it right there would be bonus rounds. I really like the game because it helps improve my math and preps me for the future. I wonder what's in store for next week.
