We are about finished. All we have to do is inbed our information to our slide or presentation and then we are ready to present. We are still making up our mind if we want to present to the whole class or just our learning coaches. We just don't know yet.
Before our iExplore was even thought up of, Aleena and I wanted to do, 'How was the number zero invented', then Ash (one of our friends) suggested that we should do the whole number system. I thought that it was a great idea and we have stuck with that idea until now.
We chose this iExplore because we wanted to learn te history of numbers and how they were discovered. I found it pretty interesting because no one had ever thought up of this idea yet. I wanted to learn more about numbers cause, well, we use numbers everyday and some of us don't really know how our base 10 number system was created.
Did you know that we use a base 10 number system in normal life and then we use a base 60 number system for time. Cool right!
I think this wasn't Aleena and I's best iExplore, but we still had interest in it. We could have thought up of a fun science experiment. That would've been cool.
Here is a interesting fact about numbers:
The number 0 wasn't in our number system before. It was then thought up of Hindu mathematicians. So, zero wasn't in our number system back in the olden days.
My next iExplore would be with Mervlyn. We are doing a science themed iExplore. We are researching about this cornstarch and water mixture. I think its gonna be cool. We are planning to give some people a experience with this strange mixture and grab their opinions about it. I think Mervlyn and I are gonna make it successful. Hopefully everyone likes it!!!
I hope you enjoyed this blog about my iExplore. This was pretty interesting to talk about. What do you all wonder?
