TERM 1 WEEK 4

This week we have been doing tech arts, and I finally know how to start up a sewing machine and thread it all. I sewed my logo on the back of my jersey. It says U K and they are both in red. I also sewed my shoulders together, so now the back and front of my jersey are together. I learned that you always have to zig-zag stitch on the edge of the jersey and that you straight stitch on the hem. I learned about estimation. so if you have 45+73, you would round the 45 to 50 and the 73 down to 70, because now it's easier to work out. 50+70=120. If you have a big number like 312 you would just round it down to 300. In math, I'm also doing factors and multiples. I know to work out the highest common multiple of, for example, 12 and 18. 1, 2, 3, 6 are all common multiple of both numbers because those four numbers can be multiplied into 12 and 18. So the highest common multiple is 6. I still don't know if I'm in rock band since we have to do another callback. I learned some new rules in soft ball. The rules are stricter and now it's 2 strikes, 3 fouls, 3 balls, and 2 out, side away. I also learned in softball that the two people in the diamond, if they get the ball they can tag the runner, and get them out. For my explanation, I am learning about the great wall of China. It was built over 2000 year ago!
