My name is Rachel and I am working with the Summer Learning Journey (SLJ) team this year. I see from your bio that you are part Irish and part Maori. What a cool combination! My son, Aronui, is part Canadian (like me) and part Maori. Like you, he is also eight years old and loves chocolate. Do you have a favourite kind of chocolate? His favourite kind at the moment is the Whittakers Hazelnut Chocolate bar. Have you tried it?
Speaking of trying, I love it that you have completed so many activities for the SLJ this year. Way to go! I see that you have written out your answer for this activity. I think that you have doubled the number of days in the year to get 730. Am I right? You are getting close to the answer, however, for this one we have to include the amount of water that we need to use each day (3 ml). If there are 365 days in a year and we need to water the cactus 3 ml each day, how much do we need to water it in a year?
I hope that you'll have time to pop back and try this activity one more time. We'd love to be able to give you full points for the activity with the correct answer.
Wishing you and your whole family a very happy new year.
Kia Ora Niamh,
