Maths
Today in maths we learned how to work with fractions and our problem was
You are making a fruit salad and need 2/3 of a
cup of passion fruit. You have a 1/2, 1/4 and a ⅙ sized measuring cup. How will you measure the passion fruit?
We solved it doing 2/3 x 2=4/6 so 6 divided by 2=3 and 4 divided by 2=2 So the final answer is that you need 4 1/6 cups to make 2/3

Tamaki Tech
Today in Tech we learned plants and a process which they do called photosynthesis. We talked about what photosynthesis means and how it works. It happens it the leaves. Now we got told what our experiment was and that was to see how plants or what we used celery. We put water in a flask and then we poured approximately 10 drops of food coloring of your choice. Our options were red and blue. Finally we put in the celery stem and stirred it a bit. Now we just had to wait about an hour then cut open the stem and there it was I saw the red food coloring half way up the stem.
