Throwing sock shots


How accurate do you think I am at throwing socks into a washing basket?
For Maths this week we had to throw an object into something and see how accurate we could be.
I had 5 attempts at throwing socks into a washing basket and I got better with every attempt I had.
I have shown this data in lots of different ways!
I had lots of fun doing this challenge because we got to go outside and throw things!https://www.google.com/search?q=socks+in+a+ball&rlz=1CACTIE_enNZ834&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwihx-n75f_oAhV7lEsFHWsgCXcQ_AUoAXoECAwQAw&biw=1366&bih=665&safe=active&ssui=on

Sherpa's lock-down activities



Do you know what a Sherpa is? Until yesterday I didn't either!!
Sherpas are expert mountaineers who help guide people up mountains. Sherpas have become climatized to the extreme weather conditions and help carry all the equipment up the mountain until they reach the top. I enjoyed making this as I learnt about a famous New Zealander called Edmund Hillary who was the first man to make it to the top of Mount Everest. You may have seen him on the New Zealand $5 note.https://www.google.com/search?q=picture+of+Sir+Edmund+Hillary+and+tenzing+norgay&rlz=1CACTIE_enNZ834&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiP07OVjO7oAhW3wzgGHTesDgIQ_AUoAXoECBIQAw&biw=1366&bih=665&safe=active&ssui=on
