Enlargement questions

What 2 things do you always need to say to describe an enlargement?

The scale factor

Centre of enlargement

What does centre of enlargement mean?

The centre of enlargement is the place where you start enlarging the shape

What is a scale factor?

A scale factor is how many times enlarged

Explain how to work out the scale factor on a grid, and with no grid. Use diagrams you have screenshot from the myimaths lesson.

To work out the scale factor on a grid, count how many squares on one of the sides on the shape that hasn't been enlarged. Then count how many squares that are on the same side as the none enlarged one and see how many times you can times it by. 

For example in the image below, shape A has 2 squares at the bottom side of the shape and shape B has 4 on the same side. This means that the scale factor is 2 because 2 x 2 =4

To work out the scale factor that isn't on a grid, we use project lines.

The black lines in the picture above are the project lines, we use them to help us to find out the scale factor. Use the centre of enlargement (X) to start. Draw lines from the centre of enlargement to each side and beyond. then measure with a ruler how far from the centre of enlargement to the end of each side is and then measure with a ruler from that side to the end of the enlarged side, if the none enlarged side is 3 and the enlarged side is 9 then the sclae factor will be 3. Check the other sides to make sure you are correct. 


What happens to the angle sizes in the corner of the shape when you enlarge it?
The angles stay the same

Life Ed Summary

In life ed, Michael has been teaching us about drugs, how to get out of situations, stories about people on drugs, what happens when you take drugs, puberty, delaying the decision etc. The main message of the year 8 life ed lessons is to delay the decision until you have climbed the ladder of puberty. There are 7 rungs in the ladder of puberty, which means 7 years until you have gone through all the stages of puberty and began the early stages of adulthood. The reason for this is that teenagers are a lot more affected by drugs/alcohol then adults are, as our bodies haven't fully developed yet, we also would not know how to deal with things, and get addicted a lot easier. 

We have been learning a lot about drugs as well. Drugs are very dangerous, they are categorised into classes, Class A, B & C. With A being the most dangerous and C being the least but still extremely dangerous. Michael showed us videos of past drug users and their stories of addiction and what happened. Most of the stories they got addicted to drugs at a young age, 13-14 and started stealing to get more. They were originally good kids but hanging in the wrong crowd and the peer pressure took over. It mucked up their sporting career and their potential. One of the stories about a drug user that Michael told us was a man on P, he was taking his daughter to school and she forgot something. The man got so angry, he killed her and buried her then helped the police look for her when knew he was the one that did it. Drugs stuff up your brain and make you do crazy things you wouldnt normally do when you think its making you feel better but you can't becasue you addicted. Drugs affect different people in different ways, because we all have different bodies and brains. If you didn't already know different drugs can do tremendously affecting things to your brain to make you not your self and make you look 20 years older then you already are, mess up your life, get you into prison. 

Alcohol is legal.
