Christmas Eve

Hello everyone today we wrote a story on the picture down below our teacher instructed the class what to do. I based my story of wonderland but in a Christmas way with the white rabbit and that. I really enjoy writing this because I could come up with anything. 

As I walk up to the house I notice the two big trees that look like a beautiful walk way and the dark shady sky with shiny stars glowing through. I look over across from the trees and I see more trees and the top of the beautiful lit up house with smoke coming from the fire place. the white snow shines with the light from the house its soft and free feel like a wonderland walking through the snow. Hi I'm Bliss I'm a white rabbit who lives deep in the forest but I found this wonderland of a place and thought I should look around. 

I have soft white fur that flow smoothly in the wind I have one ear the sticks up and one ear the flops. My nose and a soft pick with two black dots on each side and I have soft pink paws too bright blue eyes the glow in the moon light. I found this beautiful how and this wonderland of a place so I thought I should look around and adventure I hoped up to the first out and jumped inside and looked around.

There was this one guy who didn't like me being in hes town and wanted me gone or dead even one else loved me its like they have never seen a bunny before. As I walked out the house this guy was right there ready to get me I ran down into the town hopping away from him. He chased me all around the town till the Mayer picked me up and told him to stop. I cuddled into her scared of this man. 

She starts telling this man off for chasing me and trying to kill he apologise to her and she walks off me in her arms. As she walks around a look around the places looking at all the amazing house and decorations. she takes me back up to the trees and put me down. She sets me back off to my family saying goodbye hoping I would come back next Christmas Eve. 

  

Debating

 Hello in this class we have been doing debating so we get put into teams of three and have a argument for if we agree or disagree. We write down ideas and we say them in our group only one team wins and that's the team with the best ideas. I haven't done much in this class well much debating so it been a bit boring and maybe for others its been fun it wasn't that challenging it was a pretty laid back relaxed class. I don't really wanna go into year 10 next year I feel its just going to be as bad as this year is. 

Business and Enterprise

 Hello everyone today we got to explain thing about our Business and Enterprise, I love and hate doing Business and Enterprise because some year it doesn't go to well and some year it does or the product or dumb. This year I hope it goes well we are making candles and I love candle and I have a good group. 

100 words challenge

Privet everybody we got to write an 100 word challenge our teacher gave us a photo of pools with water slides. Here is my 100 words

It's a really hot day and my friends and I are burning up so we all decided we wanted to go to the pools. One of my friends knew this really great pool with a huge water slide and great pool. My friend drove us down to the pool. When we got there we all paid for the water slides and to go in after we all paid we got dressed and jumped in the pool. It was so nice and cool we got out and went on the water slides. We all went down together. That was a bad idea, it hurt but we had a fun time.

Science & Maths

 For the last 2 weeks we have been doing a project for maths and science. We drew a house, and we did all the calculations for it. 

Aim: We did this to put together some ideas that we have learnt, current, voltage, and area/perimeter.

Method: I chose to do house number 1, and a used 7 bulbs. 

Results: I measured voltage for each bulb on each pathway. 

    Pathway 1= 1 Bulb = 200V. 200/1

    Pathway 2= 2,3,4 Bulb = 66.67V each. 200/3. 

    Pathway 3= 5,6,7 Bulb= 66.67V each. 200/3.

Current was measured for each pathway.

    Pathway 1=  200v ÷ 1 8A

    Pathway 2= 200 ÷ 3 2.67A

    Pathway 3= 200 ÷ 3 2.67A

This was an okay activity I didn't really enjoy it I can't really do anything next time because it wouldn't change anything. It would still be the same boring activity. 

Health-vaping games

Hello, in Health we were set a task that required us to make a something for vaping my group decided to make a game called 5 second rules but its different its for vaping we made cards, tokens and a board. From there we began the process too make the game. We printed out and five and put it on some paper that made the board we also made the cards that had the questions on them and the person had five seconds to answer. it was a challenged because we had to work has a team and get this down without losing it or re-doing the whole game it was also hard to think about what we should do and also finding the questions. Our game is too teach people the bad parts of vaping like anxiety, stress, vape tongue etc. The making part was very annoying to make we changed the five out to a different board writing the cards our and doing the rules. Next time I would probably do a different game and not five second rules or maybe something other than a game because this game was pretty boring I didn't like playing it and it doesn't make sense.

Ellipsis (FANBOYS)

Hello in my English class today I finishes of my work my class were put into group, for different things I was put into ellipsis. those are the three dots (...) like in a sentence it would be like "Hey we should... never mind its fine" it can be used for when you go to say something but you don't or if you take a long brake before saying something. 

business and enterprise.

We are learning these vocabulary words so we understand what they mean like if we grow up and we ever need a loan we need to know what a loan means and how it works. We had to write 5 different words and write the meaning of those words.

Business and Enterprise is important to learn at our school because in the future if we get a job we need to learn how to organise money or how to like run business. Kids should start learning how to save and look after their money at a young age maybe like year 5-7 so they understand as they get older. To make sure they don't go out and spend money on random things they don't need or will get bored of in like and day or so. It's good to teach kids this stuff at a young age.    

If you start running a business and you don't know how to give out the money equally or how much to give to your co-workers then its going to be hard to start running a business. If you get a job at 13+ and you get paid for that job and you just go out and spend all of it after getting paid right away. You aren't saving your money for something you actually need its stuff you want so you would need to know how to save your money instead of just going out and spending it.  

Imagine you got paid 20 dollars and you go and spend 10 of that of something stupid like jewellery, candy, toys you don't need that you want it. You are spending your money of thing you don't really need it would be better to spend you're money on things like food, drinks, college, bill. You could even just put that money away and save up. 

Overall my opinion would be just to save the money or spend it on things you need not want. If you're running a business know how to share the money out equally or if you ever need extra money borrow a loan but remember to always pay the money back. Knowing how to save or spend your money right before just going to the real word without knowing anything about business and enterprise.

Current Circuits

Hello today in physic we are making circuit on this  kit.

Parallel Circuit

Reflection

Commitment- I have committed to my physics class doing all my work and getting it done on time. 

Achievement- I feel that I achieved the English class very well.  

Resilience- I feel I was able to do this in my Wananga class. 

Respect- I was able to respect all my teachers in all my classes.

Arts Kete- My arts kete is going well we are doing preformace and I'm doing music and lighting and working on helping the groups. Other than that im not doing much but its a really fun arts kete. 

I worked okay with a few relievers but sometimes I wasn't my best and had problems in the class but most of them I was pretty good with most of the relievers. I could have done pretty then I was but I choose not to and I didn't turn it around witch I should have.

My goal next week is to work on getting my work done faster and if we have relievers to be a good student and not course trouble that also goes to my normal teachers and actually listen to my teacher instead of not listening.

The Cay

Cow Eye Dissection.

On Wednesday period 3 we did an eye dissection on a cow eye my teacher showed us a video on how to do the dissection. Before this we have been learning about the different parts of they eye and what they do. After the video we go given a tray, scissors and a pair of tweezers to work with the eye.

The cornea is the clear outer layer of the eye that The cornea helps your eye to focus light so you can see clearly, The pupil of the eye is a portal which admits and regulates the flow of light to the retina, The iris helps control the size of the pupil to let more or less light into the eye,  lens is an important part of the eye's anatomy that allows the eye to focus on objects at varying distances. The retina contains millions of light-sensitive cells (rods and cones) and other nerve cells that receive and organise visual information. Your retina sends this information to your brain,  the clear, watery fluid between the cornea and the front of the vitreous. The aqueous humour bathes and nourishes the lens and maintains pressure within the eye the humour is also the middle of the eye but its not on the diagram. optic nerve It transmits sensory information for vision in the form of electrical impulses from the eye to the brain.

We had to cut off the fat from the eye then pierce into the eye to cut is open and then we had a look on the inside of the eye to see all the different parts of the eye. I didn't enjoy it the dissection was very gross and there was a risk on some gross liquid squirting out of it the person who I was working with couldn't pierce through they eye so it was really gross. I did really find anything inserting about the dissection. I didn't really expect it to be a bluey white. 

Do Now-Calypso

When I listen to the Calypso music I think of like beach music you will find in a movie. Maybe a relaxing day at the beach playing in the water getting a tan making sand castles. I can also imagine people dancing to this song have a good time. Like a type of music you might find in Hawaii its very up beat and enjoyable. Calypso music

I have to created my on metaphor or simile for someone's voice because in the book timothy is described as having a "soft Calypso voice".

"His voice sounded very soft but deep".

                                                                                                                                                                

Do Now-Pontoon

 The Pontoon bridges were used in history to allow the Persian army to cross the strait of Dardanelles in Turkey. They were built for permanent floating bridges, useful for sheltered (quiet) water-crossings. relative to the concrete bridge can be reduced trabecular high and self-respect.

Beatles- On This Day

 Hello my whole class did an on this day challenge all together  about the Beatles and two of there songs. 

Snow Day

 Hello everyone, today it snowed and no one in my class could stay reading because they were more interested in the snow and when my teacher asked if we wanted to go outside everyone screamed and ran.

It's the 9th of august 2021 and it has finally snowed after 11-10 year. It wasn’t snowing heavily but it was still snowing. It last snowed in 2012-2013 that had heavy snow that was about up to your uncles. The snow has been on and off today. My teacher let us go out and play in the snow for a little while because we were more interested in the snow than our books. It has stopped again (10:27am) but I'm sure it will pick up again. Sometimes it is heavy, sometimes it is soft. It's now gently raining with a nice shine of sun. It's still kinda a gentle snow but mostly rain when we were able to go outside. It was pretty cold but very pretty. I enjoyed being out there in the snow even though I was just standing there it was funny to watch everyone jump around. They seemed to enjoy the snow a lot. I also had a lot of snow in my hair. 10:36 it has started snowing again, the sun has gone away and it is kinda heavy again. The snow is very beautiful. You would think it's thick but it's nice to stand on and pretty to look through.

Do Now-Schooner

 The Schooner as a long but thin deck with 4-6 sails. One side in very long and pointy and one end is short it looks black maybe a dark blue and it can be other colours like red,white,brown etc with white sails. If you were standing on the Schooner you could probably see in the water and see whats close to the surface with the length you could probably stand on one end and see pretty far out then on one side pretty close in.

heat transferring

 Hello today is our last day of our chemistry class and we are learning about heat.

Moving heat from one place to another.

Conductor of heat- Can pass on heat from one thing to another. Like when you put a knife on the stove or when body heat passes.

insulator of heat- doesn't pass on the heat. Like a house when you wanna keep in the worm or a bed/ blankets.

convection- heat transfer without contact. cold air sinks as more since its heavy and hot air rises.

we lit tea bags on fire an once the fully burned the yet up into the air because the spared out this happened because of convection they were also less heavy so they could go up and they come down because they were heavy because they were cold.

STEAM

 Hello everyone today is our last week of doing our steam this is our third week of doing this. We made a cooling and heating top and this stop us from using a lot of energy. I have been working with Maddison, Nici, nevaeh and Sophie.

do now

 It is important for high school students to learn about politics

It is important for high school students do learns about politics. Kids need to learn how to make decisions and arguments. Like say you are fighting for helping more wild life the kids can learn how to debate about it. So overall I think that its important for high school kids to learn about politics.

Being able to be confident when public speak is an important life skill.

Being able to public speak is an important life skill. If you didn't have this life skill you would never be able to speak up in front of a crowd or a few people. Like if you were walk up on stage then just stand there not saying anything about to cry that's showing you don't have the confidence to do that, but if you are able to get up there and speak clear that shows you can speak publicly. So overall having the confidence to publicly speak up is an important skill to have

Stem

Hello everybody for the past 3 weeks we have been doing STEAM/STEM we are working to fix issues that may happen in 2050. my group is making a shirt with heating and cooling pads in it so we could cool down or heat up depending on the weather. Our inquiry question is How can we help heating and cooling without using heaps of energy. So we decided to make the shirt with it.

Book Review

 Hello everyone today in class we got to finish our reading book and now we have to write a book review here are some questions  my teacher was me to answer. 

The title of the book is called I am Malala. The authors are Malala Yousafzai with Patricia Mccormick. I didn't select the novel my teacher assigned it to me we had no choice is picking the novel. I thought the book was very interesting a lot happened in her life. my favorite part would have to be the part where she is in the van and got shot then she talked about her survival.

these are some of the character, Malala Yousafzai, Atal Yousafzai, Khushal Yousafzai, those are some of the kids of Tor Pekai Yousafzai the mother and Ziauddin Yousafzai the father. Malala's best friend was Shazia Ramzan and her doctor was Dr Fiona Reynold.

I would recommend this book to 13+ this is really a book for 12 younger  book it has a lot a difficult words and big words.

I would rate this book 4/5.

Science-Distillation

States of matter 

S. solid

L. liquid

G. gas

Whats evaporation? Evaporation is when a substance gets heated up and it turn from a liquid to gas. (Think of a kettle boiling) 

Whats condensation: Its goes from gas to a liquid by cooling it down. (Thing of your window when its cold)

whats distillation: Separate a solution using evaporating. 

Distillation Experiment:

Aim: use distillation to separate out the dissolved sugars in coke or coke zero (diet), from the liquid.

Hypothesis:

I think that coke will give us more sugar then the coke zero will. Coke is just made out of sugar more then coke zero is. I think the liquid will look lighter then it started as.

Results: it boiled to a point wear there was only sugar left some had a whole lot of sugar (normal coke) and some had not much (diet coke) and one had less water and one had more.

discussion:  I saw that it boiled because we were adding heat to a liquid and that turned into a gas because we gave it more energy (evaporating) then we called it down making less energy for it. 

Conclusion:  Yes it did work 

Chromatography

Chromatography is a pigment separate, pigments are different colors in one type of  color like a pen it take out the different colors it also gives the colors to things. 

Aim-To separate the different pigments from ink using chromatography

hypothesis- I think that the pen line will go up and take out the pigments, the colors we might see are orange blue and black. (depended on the pen

1- Draw a line across the filter paper in pencil, 5cm from the bottom.

2- Draw a coloured dot in the centre of the line.

3- Measure out 10mL of water and place in the test tube.

4- Place the filter paper in the test tube and fold over the side. MAKE SURE THE PENCIL LINE/ DOT IS NOT IN THE WATER.

5- Wait for 5 minutes and observe the results

EQUIPMENT- Felt tip pen, filter paper strips, test tube, measuring cylinder, pencil.

PB4L

 Hello everyone today in class we did a PB4L. So we got given a sheet of paper with the CARR values those are Commitment, Achievement,Resilience and Respect. On the sheet it have some expectations for all school settings, learning spaces, moving between spaces, outdoor spaces and digital/cybersmart. Then we had to pick one that we do from each one and one the we don't do from each one.

Commitment learning spaces- I'm always in the right place at the right time. When the bell rings I'm at class or when i'm in class i'm in the right space.

Achievement all school settings- I always do my personal best, I'm always try doing it to a high expectations and I meet my dead line most of the time.

Resilience digital/cybersmart- I listen and apply feedback I also report any problems online and i'll be willing to try new technologies problem solve. 

Respect outdoor spaces- I can respect the equipment and make sure school property is taken care of.

2 things I don't do. 

always have good manners and appropriate languages I don't always use these some time it get out of hand. 

report any damages and dangers. I don't always do this

 Anyone in Aotearoa New Zealand can vote? not everyone is New Zealand should be able to vote for the federal election. Some people could be to young to vote and might not understand what its really for but then some people might understand it and can vote. Like you could be 7 and not understand but you could be 14 and understand all of it. I feel that it should be 16+ instead of 18+ but if we had younger kids voting and could help more.

Your name is used for a lot of thing like jobs, check up like at the doctors, school and for who you are. It doesn't have to be your bio name, you could have changed your name like from Heaven to Josh. Your name is very important to your identity and it makes your character or it might not. Sometimes it good to lie about your name but most of the time its not. Over all your name is very important you and who you are.

STEM-Fitting Through Paper

 Today we started doing a STEAM challenged called fitting through paper. We had to find away to fit through A4 paper. My group tried cutting out the middle of it and that failed then we tried to just cut it in one big strip.  If the paper was bigger it would be so much easier and we could work better and if the paper was smaller well I give up I wouldn't be able to do anything with it. If the cuts were not as deep (long) it would be harder because they would make the cuts smaller and hard to work with. If the cuts were closer together it would be such a problem but still a bit hard. If the cuts your further apart it would be quite hard. 

Malala- Summary and Vocabulary

 Hello here is my finished Malala task. We had to wright a summary about each chapter we read and at the bottom is my vocabulary. 

Ch 14.

When Malala didn’t go to school for a month she watched a show called ugly betty. The way Malala described her was that she had braces and a big heart, Betty could also walk around New York City freely unlike Malala. She also realized that Betty didn’t have all the rights. After a month the schools reopened but only girls ten and under were allowed to go to school, girls over ten had to stay home. Those rules didn’t stop Malala from going to school, Madam Maryam told the girls that they can come to school but not in uniform, only casual clothes. This was called secret school. 

Ch 15.

One February morning Malala was woken by gunfire but it wasn’t unusual since she had woken up but several guns fired at night. This time was different. They were shooting into the sky for peace. The government agreed to sharia if the Taliban stop fighting, sharia is like peace.  Since 2007 more than thousands of people have been killed. Now since they have peace, girls were allowed to go back to school but they had to be covered in public clothes, so they could go to school. Malala was interviewed for girls rights then it ended up going world wide on GEO tv and a woman came to their home land and did a talk that made malala’s father look like he aged because of how bad the speech was. One day Malala saw her father and his friends watching a video on his phone and Malala saw that it was a girl being beaten and attacked but the talian she was hit 34 times, she was only a teenager.

Nancy Wake- Essay

 Hello everyone since week three my class has been writing essays on New Zealand leader I decide to pick Nancy Wake. I found her story very interesting so I wanted to write an essay about her, this is my essay. 

Nancy wake was a women leader back in 1939-1945.  Nancy Wake was born in Wellington on 30th of August 1912. Her full name is Nancy Grace Augusta Wake. She is the youngest of six children Nancy followed after her father becoming a journalist who joined the french resistance and later special operations executive during World War II. Nancy was also a secret agent during world war 2 and fighting for New Zealand while helping people. 

I feel that Nancy Wake is a very strong leader for her time because the Germans and the Gestapo unrestricted access to all parts of Vichy France and made life more dangerous for Nancy. When the network was betrayed that same year she decided to flee France. Nancy was only 16 years old when she ran away from home. Nancy knew that she was in danger so keep herself safe by fleeing France but she also did this out of bravery. Nancy knew she might be able to help that's why she became a nurse after running away.

After running away she became a nurse but she only worked briefly as a nurse. In 1932, Nancy inherited some money and used it to travel to London then into the mainland of Europe to train to become a journalist. Nancy ended up settling in Paris and working for the Hearst group of newspapers and as a journalist. This all happened after she ran away then she joined the war at about 23.

During the war  Nanay was a resistance fighter who led an army of 7000 Marquis troops in a guerrilla mission to sabotage the Nazi regime. She was given the code name ‘The White Mouse’.  She was credited for saving the lives of hundreds of allied soldiers. Downed airmen between 1940 and 1943 by escorting them through occupied France to safety in Spain.

After the war Nancy immediately was awarded the george medal, The United states medal of freedom, the Médaille de la Résistance, and thrice, the Croix de Guerre. She worked for the intelligence department at the british air ministry. In 1985, Nancy published her autobiography, The white mouse. She got married to her husband John Forward the couple had no children. Later on 19 august 1997 after 40 year of her marriage her husband died at Port Macquarie.

 

Do Now-Thursday

I feel that Principal's are the most important people in the school or at least one of the most important people in the school but I don't think that DP principal's are that important. Principals are important to us because they make decisions that teacher or students might not be able to make in the school and for the people. Principal's can make a decision like 'these two student need to stay away fr each other' or 'teacher can do this in class to help the student'. So I do feel that principal's are very important to our systems.

Shark Infested Custard

 Hello everyone today we played and game called shark infested custard in health. I used my verbal commutation and being inclusive the warm fuzzies I used was "you can do this" I cheered on my team and we helped each other. it went well we didn't argue or anything we just communicated it would have been nice to have bigger hoops though they were pretty small. I worked with Faye, Kristille, Chelsea, Hamid, Travis and Sereybuth. I worked at level 4 of Hellison's model. I cared for my team mates, I was encouraging and I worked without a reward. 

 

Game Day

 Hello today in class we had a game day it was raining to we didn't play our game outside but today I used the Ip skills verbal commutations and active listening. I used them by communicating with my team mate and I was listening to what she said. I worked with Kristille and we played uno, ping pong, connect for shots and guess who. I really enjoyed playing I learnt how to play a new game. I would definitely do this again but change nothing about it. I worked at level 4 for my Hellion's models I picked this because I encourage my team mate and I had care for my team mate. 

Concentration and Dilution

 Hello today in science we are doing concentration and dilution. concentration, a measure of how much solute has been dissolved into the solvent.  Like "the juice was strongly concentrated" so that would mean "the juice was weakly dilute". 

Aim: Carry out a serial dilution with potassium permanganate,

We can measure in two ways:

- How dilute is something... (how weak it is)

- How concentrated something is... (how strong it is)

The experiment we are doing is dilution. (serial dilutions)

what is it? 

making something less concentrated, there will be less particles in the liquid. serial in a scientific way means multiple. We are using test tubs the first test tub has 10ml of water then the rest have 5ml of water. We are also using potassium permanganate witch is toxic and flammable. 

I think that some of them will turn purple and some wont because the potassium permanganate has a purple tint to it. 

       

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                We are always gonna move is over from one test tub we are going to use a pipette to move 5ml's from each test tub. 

results: At the beginning the water was a dark purple then we keep moving them along they become a lighter purple and more see through. I think it become like this become the water washed out a lot of the colour made it more dilute. 

science-Filtering

Hello today in science we are doing filtering and a little experiment to do with filtering. filtering- is separating different size particles out of a mixture  based on there size. Can all mixtures filtered? no only insoluble particles... If it has dissolved into the liquid it has to be separated a different way. 

experiment:

make a mixture then separate it...

chemical liquids: 

copper sulfate- light blue, liquid, transparent.

sodium carbonate- colourless, liquid, translucent.

what I think will happen...

I think it might separate is you can make the filter right it will most likely all separate but if you don't have it right i might not separate probably. With the liquids I think they will combined and the light-ish blue with the clear, it might become a lighter blue. 

1. Pour approximately 50mL of copper sulfate solution into a beaker.

2. Add the same volume of sodium carbonate solution. A reaction will happen, you should see a cloudy blue precipitate form. Called copper carbonate. 

3. Watch demo then fold filter paper to fit inside the funnel

4. Place the funnel with the filter paper inside of it, into the mouth of a conical flask. 

5. Stir the mixture in the beaker, then carefully pour it into the funnel. 

6. Observe what happened.

what happened: It become dark blue and cloudy (Opaque) i don't know why it happened. When we separated it become copper carbonate we the come together it becoming a small solid (blue sludge-precipitate) then when we filter it become clear because of sodium sulfate.

Equipment:

Sodium carbonate

Copper sulfate
