This week at Maths we looked at how to find the area and the volume of 3d shapes. We first looked at nets that would form a cube. Then we tried to figure out the differences between volume, area and perimeter.

 The volume of a cube

V= l x w x h
   = n( tiny three/ cubed)

The Volume of a Triangular Prism


A= 1/2 x b x h                                       V= n x l
   = b x h                                                    = n(tiny 3/ cubed)
   = n/2
   = n( tiny 2/ squared)

Emigration is when a person exits a country 

Immigration is when a person entering a place

Migration is moving to another place

Push factor means something that pushes people to move away from their country

Differences between secondary and primary resources

Primary resources are natural and secondary are processed 

This Essay will be discussing why a Filipino family emigrated to New Zealand. The main reasons were:

 A Filipino migrant moved from the Philippines moved to New Zealand to look for a job. 

They moved to the Philippines because of the Pull and Push factors. They came to New Zealand in 2008 as a joke at their workplace where someone said: “Let’s go to the Middle Earth.” Once they came here they couldn’t forget the memories they had here. They thought that they would have more opportunities in here so they got a work visa which took 5 years. 

 They moved to New Zealand because of the opportunities they can get living here. They were born poor and a single parent with no education and money. They used to be a maths tutor, plantsadora and a service crew to support their son. In the Philippines, 109 m people live there while here in New Zealand there are only 5 m people that live here even tho they are almost the same length. When they decided to live here they thought the lifestyle here was very different from the Philippines. 

 They migrated here from the Philippines due to the chances they saw living here. There were lots of push and pull factors that pushed and pulled them to live here.

Maths

This week in Maths class we continued our work from when we were at home. We started on our measurement topic. Using the resources on the teacher's website we tried to convert mm to cm and vice versa. We also learnt some measurement units.
