What I've Learnt In Maths So far.

 We are learning about shaping up which is a mix of geometry and, well 3D shapes

In maths I have learnt about 3D shapes, this part of maths was quite tricky and I got the hang of it but it took about two weeks.

these are the dimension types, 

Length, Width and Height.

When you turn a circle into a 3D shape you could get a cylinder or a sphere.

where as when you get a square and turn it into a 3D shape you would get a cube.

but for a triangle you could get loads of different answers

Reading: Inferring

Reading: Inferring

Over the past couple of weeks we learnt how to Infer, Its pretty easy but its quite hard to get the hang of.

Inferring is when you don't get told something in a text but you can use your prior knowledge to figure it out. For example if I make up a person called Lucy, 

Lucy says to her mum "can we go out shopping" Her mum Shouts back "No I Can't Afford It". 

This is an example of the author stating this, but if we infer we can also find out that Lucy's mum is in a bad state and she needs some love and that she is a bit bankrupt.

In this text I Inferred that the light was muted because they had no windows, all they had was a very dim light that would provide them little to enough light to see.

This text is called the promise if you want to read it
