WHY I SHOULD GO ON THE HOROUTA WAKA

 Dear waka captain Anito 

Lots of people have been talking about how our island has been overpopulated, people have been running out of food and supplies so I want to be one of the brave voyagers to try to find new land. 

Firstly I am great at navigation when the waka runs off course I will be there to use the bright stars and warm currents to guide the waka back onto the track 

Secondly I will fix the waka when the rope snaps in a storm when waves are as big as mountains.Im a very good climber and not scared of heights when the sail snaps. 

Thirdly I fancy myself as a pretty good doctor, when members get struck off the ship and drown  I'm good at CPR or they just get sea sick, so I can save lives. 

So coming to the conclusion, can you please accept my letter and hope that I can go on the horouta waka.

Yours sincerely one of your horouta waka members.

My strengths

My strength is teslaating different shapes into a shape and naming 3D solids and enlarging block lettering.

Goals

 Need to work on my enlargement. I thought that I would be good at enlarging because I normally get it right. I need to work  on my navigation systems and my a to b shapes and naming the difference between the rhombus and the parallelogram.

What helped me

I think that the work I did on the workshops helped me to know how to name shapes and teslatate and enlarge animals.

Preparing

I prepare for my test by learning my 3D shapes by looking around at all the different shapes around the class.  

What the teachers did well in, and what they need to work on

I think the teachers need to work on i think that they could give us more time on mathletics  and maybe some more activities 

Conclusion

I like geometry tests and I love dealing with different shapes  and doing block lettering as enlarging different animals. Another reason is that I love tinkercad using different shapes that I didn't even know about .
