Reflection Time (Week 2) - P.E -

Reflection:
I think this week I've improved cause I've put more effort into the activity and towards the training that our taught us to do. I am also level 2 since I wasn't wearing the full gear for P.E. The majority of us wasn't really wearing the full P.E gear so I'm in line with the average. While the training was in session, most of us got our own self-motivated since we were all competitive. Laughing our hearts out we paused and took a break. After a while, our period of P.E ended.

SDL Reflection Time (week 2)

Last week I was trying to achieve the goal:
Ask feedback when I'm unsure.
I think I got the same level as last time since, 
I didn't really communicate with others.

This week I'm trying to achieve the goal:
Know what skills I needed to develop on
So I can learn.
Three ways to achieve this:
- Asking when I'm unsure
- Ask feedback from teacher/friends
- Learning my mistakes.

Vernier

What are the parts of a vernier caliper? - Wonkee Donkee Tools
What is a Vernier?
There are different types of Vernier tool in the world but we're learning about a particular one, the Metric Vernier. This type of Vernier gives measurements from 0.1mm up to centimetres. IT can measure objects to their accurite measurements unlike a ruler. It is used to accurately measure the internal and external diametres of an object.

How to use a Vernier:
First: Measure the object.
Second: Look at the main scale and see where it goes.
Third: Look at the vernier scale and see where the 0 of the vernier goes.
now it would be the main scale's number plus, the 0 of the vernier scale.
Fourth: Look wherever which line lines up the most accurately on the vernier scale and the main scale.
At the end you now have. Main scale number and wherever the 0 from the vernier scale is and the the which line lines up from the vernier scale and the main scale.
