I choose the first picture. I think the people in the picture are in a stadium. They are all from the same team, (probably basketball).They all seem to be very happy and having fun. I think that they have just won the competition against their opponents. They all are taking a selfie with their coach.It seems that they all have been awarded with a medal after the match.I think that it is a happy ending for the game for the team and they all want to take selfies for their remembrance as they seem to have won the competition.

Week 2 Summer Learning Day 3

Activity 1 Night owls

I am an early riser and so is the rest of my family. My dad wakes up really early because he has to go to work. I wake up at 6:00 am to get ready for school. My mum prepares our breakfast and lunch before she drops me to school.


 Activity 2 A Local Delicacy

My favourite pizza is Cheese Pizza from Pizza Hut and how to make it is some cheese for the topping and some pizza dough, also you need some tomato sauce. You need to roll the dough and then flatten it, then you need to put some tomato sauce on top of it then after you need to sprinkle the cheese on top and the put it in the oven for 20 or 15 minutes.


Activity 3

These are the number of adults that will be required to move the giant squid
495kg divide by 25kg equals to 19.8
that means that it will require 20 adults to move the giant squid from one place another

THese are the number of children that will be required to move the giant squid
495kg divide by 15kg equals to 33
That means that it will require 33 kids in total to move the giant squid from point A to B

If the kids and adults are rquired to move the gianr squid together from point A to B
then the equation will be like this
425kg / 25kg = 17 adults
75kg / 15kg = 5 kids
