Armenian Rug Problem


All these Armenian Rug Puzzles have three things in common. the hidden rugs are rectangular.
  • they must be placed orthogonally (not diagonally.)
  • a corner of a rug cannot lie on the edge of another rug.
  • the clues are pegs. When the puzzles are complete, these pegs will lie on the perimeter of exactly one rug.

Maths Reflection

Good Moro my Children 
Sorry I have no idea what i'm saying.

anyway back to my reflection...

for maths today our class has been doing a thing called...

  which is where a couple of questions come together and make like a booklet or page we were meant to do one question but me and my mate JACK and SAMARA and PARIS did nearly all of them sooo... yeah...

The first one was a clock. yeah a clock thang.

we had to draw five lines on a clock to make each segment add up to the same numberrrr. The number they all added up to was, is, thirteen. let me show you a diagram of it. 

you see how in between the lines both the numbers add up to 13. We had to figure out what number was going to go in-between these lines. it was a trial and error thing at first i didnt get it but in the end i did. it was a mildly hard thing to do but we got it in the end.

Thank you for reading my post

if you like it leave a comment i will allow any comment if its not inappropriate.

Reflection of Maths

For maths this week I looked at Rounding decimals.

Adding and subtracting decimals is quite easy once you learn how to do it. 

For Example:
3.d.p
33.456375 rounded to the third decimal place. What you have to do is...

*scientist voice* when you round it to the third decimal place you check the number before it to see if it is over or under five and in this case the number before it is 3 so it is under five so the rounded number is

33.456 BUT if it was over five the last number would be one number up like this 33.457.

Thx for looking at my post!!

Favourite Part 1 (Music, Writers, Animals)

You guys dont know that much about me because I only post about things that interest me like Mythology and stuff like that but today I am going to tell you my favourite things in these 3 Categories

1. Favourite Song/Artist
OK so my favourite song at the moment is..............Batman By Dropkillers. Its a good song, actually its not a song its genre is future bass, definition: Future Bass can include music from any genre that emphasis a hard bass line but actually refers to music that can not be categorized into one specific genre. My Favourite Artist is probs TRAPNATION on YouTube because they have really good remixes. My favourite one is probably Batman by Dropkillers even though I said it before its quite cool and I recommend it for allot of people who like Future Bass and stuff like that.

2. Favourite Writer/s
My favourite writer in the world is (No doubt about it) Rick Riordan. He Writes:

  • Percy Jackson
  • Kane Chronicles
  • Heroes of Olympus
  • Magnus Chase
  • Trials of Apollo
I like Writing stories and I am writing a story at the moment about a girl who lives in space and a war has broken out between two major companies and she is trying to stop the war because the companies are fighting over the girls planet and in the end the companies are going to destroy it and the girl doesn't want that so (as I said before) wants to stop her planet from being blown up so- You get the idea. If you have any ideas for title names or anything like that or what should happen post them in the comments!!

3. Favourite Animal/s
My favourite animal is a FOX and a Maned Wolf I just love the way they are so sly and quick and so unbelievably clever. A male Fox is called a dog and a female fox is called a vixen. A baby fox is called a cub. There are many different types of foxes but my favourite is probably a Red fox because the colour of their coat is so cool and their call is so weird.....Oh No......What did I just start...WHAT DOES THE FOX SAY

Ok so that is the end of my post if you want to leave a cvomment on what your favourite things are, go ahead, be my guest.

ABSOLUTE NONSENSE

ABSOLUTE NONSENSE


Jeremy is walking on the sea until he gets to Australia when a Polar Bear pushes him into a hole. Where he meets a Penguin that can grow to the size of an elephant. It flys me to the top of an african plain in England.  I jump up into the sky and see a god called penelope were he grows me into a flower and drops me back down to earth. I swim across the Ice and hit a rock the size of an ant and realize that I left the tap running. I rush back to my pet unicorn that is behind who is in laughland, around the corner from Sweden and he makes me and icecream the size of a mountain.  I unhook my jaw to eat it when suddenly I feel funny. I run around the front lawn when a bird pecked me on the arm am I hit him across the beak and his beak Fell off. Frederick my pet rock jumps off a dog called rupert into a pool of lemonade were he swims to america to eat a cow.
