Today we made a bar graph and a pie chart to see the probabilities of the total outcomes (What happened if someone picks a cube with their eyes closed, whats the chance of it being that coloured block) We used google sheets to achieve this.
Today Team – Tui did maths in the hall! It was extremely fun. We started of by playing a game named Blocko! The point of the game was to move all the blocks given of a piece of paper. How to play :
There will be 11 columns ranging from 2 – 12, than you’ll need to dice and 11 blocks. Arrange the blocks however you want, you can put multiple in a column or leave some columns blank. Once the dice are rolled, whatever number was rolled is the column you would subtract a block from. Whoever lost all blocks won a lolly!
Next there were 3 games. Greedy Pig, Cards and bottle flip. Basically we kept count on how many successful attempts. Greedy pig : Roll a dice and add all numbers until you get up to 50 or more (Repeat rolling the dice until you get to 50+. All numbers can be added but if 1 is rolled restart your progress.)
Cards : You’ll be given’ objectives. Complete them and move onto the next until you finish.
Bottle Flip : You get ten tries record the bottle flips that land on the bottom with the cap facing up / bottle facing / standing up. Tick how many you can land and how many you failed.
