NZ Flag
1) What do these symbols on our flag stand for?
a) Blue background = The Sea and the Sky.
b) Stars = Southern Cross
c) Union Jack = The treaty of Waitangi.
2) Name the 3 flags of the 3 countries which are combined to make the Union Jack = England, Scotland and Ireland.
3) When did we first use this NZ flag ? = 1902.
4) What flag did we use from 1840 until then?
5) From 1834 to 1840 we used the United Tribes Flag. Insert an image of this flag.
6) Who kept chopping down the flagpole in Kororareka? Why?
7) What are the other official flags of NZ. Who are they used
for/when are they used?
Insert an image of the National Maori Flag. When did this flag first fly officially?
8)# Now you understand the basics of our present flag, work on a design for the flag you feel NZ should have.
Insert your image.
Think about:
*what flags of other countries look like
*which icons are important to New Zealanders
*is your flag representative of our society
*the colours and what they represent
*what will go in the top left corner -the most clearly seen part of the flag even when there is no wind and the flag hangs down.
*how the rest of the world will identify NZ from this flag

Rotational Symmetry
Translations: Rotational Symmetry
- Go through the MyiMaths lesson doing all of the activities Myimaths-Shape-Symmetry-Rotational Symmetry
- Create a blog post: Title: Rotational Symmetry Label: Maths
- Answer these questions
- In your own words explain what rotational symmetry is. Rotational Symmetry is where a shape can rotate and be the same as it was when you started.
- A shape has an order of rotational symmetry of 2. What does this mean?A rotational symmetry of 2 is where the shape can be exactly the same twice through out the 360˚ turn.
- How is rotational symmetry different from line symmetry? In rotational symmetry if a turn of 180˚ or less produces an image that fits exactly on the original and in line symmetry the shape can be mirrored.
- What do you do to check if a shape has rotational symmetry? You rotate it.
- Find pictures of 3 real life objects which have rotational symmetry (not shapes, objects e.g. foods, logos) and paste them into your post
Complete this table
If a shape has rotational symmetry of order 3, how many degrees would it rotate to match itself? Answer = 120 degrees
Order
|
Degrees of rotation to match its shape
|
2
| 180˚ |
3
| 120˚ |
4
| 90˚ |
5
| 72˚ |
10
| 36˚ |
- Do the Mathopolis quiz and record your score
- Create an amazing design with the order of symmetry = 5 using symmetry artist. Screenshot and add it to your blog post.
- Worksheets at the front of the room. Glue into your maths book and write the date and learning intention. (see Miss Campbell for a mini lesson on how to do the grid worksheet)
a. Rotational Symmetry is where a shape can rotate and be the same as it was when you started.
b. A rotational symmetry of 2 is where the shape can be exactly the same twice through out the 360˚ turn.
c. In rotational symmetry if a turn of 180˚ or less produces an image that fits exactly on the original and in line symmetry the shape can be mirrored.
d. You rotate it.

This piece of art shows happiness because it is full of bright colours.
This piece of art shows anger because its full of dark and hateful colours surrounded by a black base.
This piece of art shows boredom because its full of droopy and bland colours.
This piece of art shows emotionless because the eye in the picture is staring into space with no emotion in the eye.
My piece of art shows happiness.

Fixing Punctuation
"MUM! where are my favourite socks?" I asked yelling for help.
"And where are my Tuesday's undies?" asked Dad searching through his drawers. "You know I have to wear them today."
"Just wear Mondays undies no one is going to know," replied Mum.
"No ones going to know you say, I'm going to know, and to wear Monday's undies pfft that would be idiotic," Dad answered back with a streak in his voice.
This was only the beginning of our family disaster for the next few weeks things were starting to disappear and fast with dad losing his tuesday undies and me losing my favourite socks Isaac then lost his favourite bow tie, while Mum then lost her favourite dress. We thought we were going mental "It's not like they could just hop up and run away," said Isaac.
Mum suggested that we recap our steps. "When was the last time you had your items?" she said.
We all replied. "before washing day was the last time we had them."
"So maybe it's the washing machine thats caused all this drama," Mum said with a glimpse of hope in her eyes.
We checked the washing machine there was… nothing with nothing to prove I decided to put a Go-Pro in the machine to watch it in action to see if there was something suspicious really happening inside but what I didn’t realise was that the washing machine would take my Go-Pro too.
"AHHH ITS GONE!" I yelled at the top of my voice
"What are we going to do! lets just give up," Mum said to me.
"Fine if that’s the best idea," I moaned.
A few weeks later Isaac had dropped his toy car behind the washing machine and as we were looking for it a pair of undies popped up out of the blue just sitting there
"Mum, look I said with a big grin on my face,"
"Who would have guessed."
We both stood there smiling.

It was a monday morning, I just got woken up by my mum to get ready for school. I got out of bed and reached down for my uniform but it wasn't there I looked under my bed, under my pillows but i couldn't find my uniform anywhere. "Kaidin have you gotten in the shower yet!" yelled Mum.
"No Mum I cant find my uniform," replied Kaidin.
"Well you better find it quick, or you will be going to school in your onesie!"
"But Mum I can't find it anywhere, it’s like its just disappeared"
"Oh sure just like all your other stuff huh kaidin!"
I got a note to go to school with to say that my uniform is lost and that I have to wear mufti just for today which was a pain because every teacher I walked past asked why i'm in mufti and where my uniform is so I just showed them the note and moved on when I got home I went to go grab my iPod from where I always put it but i looked and that wasn't there either.
I yelled out to my Mum. "Mum have you seen my iPod!"
"No but do you know?" "Where did you last put it?"
"Mum if i knew where i last put it do you think id be asking you where it is sorry just trying to help i thought to myself that ill try to find it later so i run into my room to go on my PS3 but surprise surprise it’s not there mum oh what now kaidin i know youre up to mischief tell me where all my stuff is kaidin do you really think I would hide your uniform away from you so you would go to school in your onesise Now what’s gone missing now My PS3 the whole thing, the controller is here but not my HDMI cable, power cord or my Elgato i really couldnt be bothered looking for all my stuff because it will take me hours so i just thought of going for a bike ride i walk outside to get my bike and i couldnt believe it my bike had no tyres by this time ive had enough i went up to my mum and said mum i know you’ve put all my stuff somewhere please can i have it back kaidin i have hidden your stuff away would you like to get it back Yes where is it where is it where is it right here My mum led me to her bedroom where my stuff was all scatterd around the room My PS3 the power cord, the HDMI and my Elgato my iPod was under her drawers and my bike tyres were under Liams bed and my uniform was in my muns drawers Okay thanks mum for hiding my stuff thats okay ill do it again sometime hahaha yeah right
