Science experiments

Science experiments

On the 24 June 2015 room 7 students went to room 10, and room 10 students went to room 8. At room ten we were trying to avoid an apple from turning brown. Mrs Tofa is room 10’s teacher.

Ingredients

. 4 cups of water.
. Get a bottle of vinegar, water, and two fizzy drink. Any flavour.
. Put does 4 kind of water in the cup. Make sure you put water first.
. Then you dip the apple into the cups.
. You take it out and leave it out for ten minutes.
. See what will happen.
. Good luck:)

     We learned how to make bread too. I forgot what was the ingredients. I just remembered some.


Ingredients.

. Baking powder.
. we used something not good for you but we had to do it. We used fizzy drink, sprite.
. Flour.
. Pot.
. Mixing spoon.
. A flat paper.
. We put it in the oven.
. We took it out.

 

And we ate it. It was delishes.


The most thing i found difficult was mixing it.
The most thing i found easy was to eat it.


The thing i learned at room 10 was that you don’t need to use yeast. You can use anything.

Scientific Terminology


Condensation
1.
Water that collects as droplets on a cold surface when humid air is in contact with it.
The conversion of a vapor or gas to a liquid.




2.
Evaporation is when the hot steamy sun grabs the water from any lakes, rivers, or the ocean.









3.
Ice is solid form of water. Ice was made from water. when you put the water in a cold icy fridge the water can turn into ice.




4.
 
a stretch or area of water, such as a river, sea, or lake.: "the lawns ran down to the water's edge".












5.
The vapor into which water is converted when heated, forming a white mist of minute water droplets in the air..





















Not hollow or containing spaces or gaps.: "a sculpture made out of solid rock" "a solid mass of flowers" "the stores were packed solid". Having a consistency like that of water or oil. Flowing freely but of constant volume.
an airlike fluid substance which expands freely to fill any space available, irrespective of its quantity.: "hot balls of gas that become stars" "poisonous gases".






















9.
The cycle of processes by which water circulates between the earth's oceans, atmosphere, and land, involving precipitation as rain and snow, drainage in streams and rivers, and return to the atmosphere by evaporation and transpiration.



Today Mrs Raj did a few scientific experiments. I learned about Evaporation. Evaporation is when the sun grab the water. It makes steam. I think i'm going brainy.

A Special Time With Family.

A special time with family.


I had a very awesome time with my family. On the school holidays my family and i went to my village, Tonga. We didn’t walk there, we didn’t drove there but we flew there in a airplane. We went there to meet others families that i don't know.


First we landed. We didn’t crash. We landed safely. When we got out of the humongous plane we saw people waiting for me and my family. My mum said that there are our Uncle, Aunties, and cousins. I was shy when I got to meet them. But after two days we got to know each other.


Next we meet other Uncle, Aunties, and cousins. I was brave. I saw my cousin from New Zealand at tonga. It was amazing. I told my Parents why did all tongan people came to tonga”. My parents said, because we have to meet other families we know”.


Afterwards we went to a place called bounce and beyond. It had heaps of food and heaps of bouncey castles. I was very satisfied. My mum forgot to tell me something. My mum said we didn’t come just to meet families, we came to see our great, great grandpas and nanas”. They were very old. They are nearly 100 years old. So we kiss them and went to head back to New Zealand. I was crying. But I had lots of fun.

The lesson I learned was to always meet people from your family, and don’t forget to remember your grandpas and nanas too.
I used this writing rubic for my writing. It helped me alot. So if you have a rubic use it.

Korea and New Zealand

The most thing i found diffcult was to get ideas from a book to a netbook.
The most thing i found easy was to set this up.

Long weekend

WALT: write a recount using a rubric to help us.
SC: set a goal level you want to achieve from the rubric

Writing PROMPT: The Four Day Weekend!

Select at least three ideas (things that happened) from your long weekend to write about. Things could be:
  • A visiting a friend or relative
  • A sports game you watched
  • A board/card/computer game you played
  • A special meal you enjoyed
  • Going to the shops/movies/ park etc.  
  • Helping to look after a younger brother/sister.
  • Something you made.
  • A book you read/ movie watched
  • … Anything at all that you did over the four days.

MY GOAL: My goals are to reach level 2.
IDEAS:  3 main ideas using describing words to tell what happened.
VOCAB:
TEXT STRUCTURE:
SENTENCE STRUCTURE:


On a Saturday morning it was freezing and splashi day. We ran outside to play cricket but we saw the rain poring down from the sky. So we ran quickly back into the house to get dried up. We were sokin from the water. So we had a shower and stayed in the house.

Next we got our books and start drawing till the rain stopped. Tick, tock, tick,tock, tick, tock, but the rain wont stop. So we got so bored that we slept for an hour. We woke up and opened the curtains saw it stop raining. So we got our shoes and ran outside but when we got outside we slip because the ground was all wet and muddy. We walked back in the house, and got our house all muddy as well.

After that we had another shower to get cleaned. We couldn't go anywhere so we wanted to go to our cousins house. So we found good clothes to wear. By the time we hopped into our car it started raining again. We drove of to our cousin house. When we were getting there, their was a q on the road. We waited and waited and waited. Finally its over we said’. We were nearly there. But my brother Mason was thirsty so we went to by some water. Then he got hungry the we byed food to. it was exhausting. When we got there we hopped of the car and ran inside our cousins house. We stayed there for a day. The next morning we got ready to go back home. So we did.

We haven't been to our cousins house for a while. It was exciting to meet them.
they look bigger now from the other days.`
The most thing i found difficult was to get ideas but the recount rubric gave me more ideas.
The most thing i found easy to do was to make more impressive words then wet and cold.

Balloon Game.

Balloon game recount
Guess what room 7 students and Mrs Raj did together out at Glenbrae school court,
we blew up a balloon!!! Mrs Raj blew it. When we saw her blow it we were excited to play with it. We played that game for a reason. To work as a team. I was shocked because the balloon was big.
`
Mrs Raj said the boys will go first. We got into a little circle. We held hands, if we let go of our hands we had to start again. When we hit it the balloon it went swish, swoosh! The boys and
I  were screaming and shouting. We were like animals. I was about to hit the balloon with my head but Danny got to it before i got to it. He is tall. Pelenise is too short that’s why he couldn’t get it. We were amazed! The boys had their turn. Now it was the girls turn, after about 3 times the balloon went on the grass.  Pop went the balloon!


At the end of the game we were jumping, running and falling on the ground. We were fun filled.
The things i found difficult in the game was to lift up our hands.
The things i found easy at the game was to keep the balloon in the air.
The thing i found funny was that we were all shouting and jumping around.

Writing

WALT: use conjunctions to extend sentences.
SC: use conjunctions to add more detail to an idea.

I agree that your actions speaks louder than your words. Because when you talk its just 7% of your words, I will explain how you talk.

When you promise someone that you're going to help them with your homework  and they don't, that shows that you are not using their action.
Can you see the picture, that's how your action speaks. You can do it now if you want to.
If someone says that your words a louder then you body language they're wrong. Everybody can do that but make sure that you use some of your words to. Do you want to know how your action speaks louder than your words.

Property- If i come back from school and i just threw my jacket on the ground and step on it I have to  pick it up before my mum takes it away.

Post card
