dry ice experiment

 Today in Science we used dry ice to look at sublimation.

Subliming - Solid Gas  

Today we used 

A Beaker or Conical flask, Dry ice, dish wash liquid, balloons, and water 

When we placed the dry ice into the conical flask and the dry ice smoked up in the top part of the conical flask then we placed the balloon on to the flask and the balloon blew up. After a little while we tipped it out and added more dry ice and water into the flask but this time we added dish soap and the dry ice got all soapy and sprayed up in soap studs.

Types of Government

 In Social Study's for the past four weeks we have been working on the different types of government and Heros and villains of our world. We each got to pick one hero or villain we wanted to research and write a little blurb and timeline about them

This is my Research on the different types of government.

Here is my Research on my hero that I pick

Candle Experiment

                                                            Candle Experiment 

In science today we placed a candle in petri dish with water in it and lit the candle on fire we then placed a cup over top of the candle to lock out the oxygen. 

Aim - To see what happens to the water level when the candle is covered.

Hypothesis - I think the candles flame with go out because the oxygen has been locked out.

Results - The candle went out and the cup sucked up to the petri dish, so if you lifted the cup the petri dish would be stuck to the bottom.

Conclusion - The water rose because it was heating up. The flame was using all the oxygen and eventually it was all gone and the cup stuck to the petri dish. 

Health

 Today in health we played games. The games I played were Connect 4 and Uno.

I won 2 rounds of uno and I won 4 rounds on connect 4.

When I won I felt excited and pumped up to keep trying to beat Khaylanie.

Today I worked with Khaylanie, Bailey, and Nishitha.

i think we worked very well together because we didnt put each other down when the other person lost and we kept a good sport and a nice competitive style.

Out of the CARR values I demonstrated  Respect, Resilience, and achievement.

Marshmallow Tower & Drawing Challenge

 In health we are working on our interpersonal skills and today we did the marshmallow challenge.We worked in a team of four, (Anne, Nishitha, Jackson, and I). We were given 12 Marshmallows and 8 skewers to hold it all together.  

What IP skills did you use today? 

The IP skills we used today were, Verbal communication, and Active Listening.

Did you use any warm fuzzies? 

The warm fuzzies I used today were, "You really helped us out".

How did it help with the success/lack of success, of this activity? 

In our team of four, it was an unsuccessful activity, This was because we didn't use our verbal communication and tried to work individually.

If you were to do it again what would you do differently? 

I would change the way we stacked it, like try make a triangle with the marshmallows and sticks on the bottom and keep building it up into a triangle and just keep adding from there.

What level of hellisons behaviour model were you working at in this activity and provide examples of this.

I worked at level 4 of Hellisons Examples of what I did to show that I worked at this level are 

Drawing Challenge 

What IP skills did you use today? 

Active listening and verbal communication

Did you use any warm fuzzies?

I didn't use warm fuzzies 

The warm fuzzies i should have used were - Good job and good drawing

How did it help with the success/lack of success, of this activity

the IP skills I used helped focus and communicate on what to do.

It helped the whole time.

If you were to do it again what would you do differently? 

Maybe use different more easier pictures.

Who did you work with?

I worked well with Nishitha.

An example is when we were explaining the pictures to each other.

Themed bell

 Explain our bells - 

Each week we have some new or different songs depending on what week it is in the world. Some of those weeks are Pride week, Ramadan week, we have even had a star was themed day, and this week we are having Six60 play because many peoples have requested it.

This week the song is -

Six60 - All She Wrote.

This song is about - A letter from his sweetheart is alleged to have arrived for the sorrowful serviceman. "Dear John," he reads to his coworkers. So, they say, go ahead.

who are the members - Matui Walters is the guitarist

                                     Chris Mac is the Bass guitarist  

                                     Ji Fraser is the Lead guitarist 

                                     Marlon Gerbes is the Synthesizer

                                     Eli Paewai plays the Acoustic Drum Kit

                                     Hoani Matenga is the second Bass guitarist.

The band Six60 formed in Dunedin and in 2008. 

I think the bells are a cool funky way to start off each week and each morning to put everyone in a decent/good mood. And its a great way to tell people what each week is.
