The Past In Drama (TPID)

For the past few weeks we have been working on this.  Is what we think physical health is.

learning stories

For the past few weeks we have been working on our learngstorings this help look at what goals we have been working on and achieved. (ps the link does not work it is just to the blog that you are on right now)

my name is Rez

Today we read a book about a girl named rez and she told us about what happened in her childhood we had to answer these qustions so the teacher knows that we understand the book.

powder experiment

Aim: To learn about the makeup of different white powders.

There are  a number of different white powders in our everyday life. Some of these are harmful and others are not. Test the four white powders listed to see which one has been found at the airport.

Here are some examples of everyday kitchen white powders.

Flour, Cornflour, Sugar, Salt, Baking Soda, Baking Powder, Icing Sugar, Tartaric Acid

Citric Acid, Gluten Free flour

You will be given a small amount of 4 white powders on your cardboard. On the black cardboard using a magnifying glass look at the powders.

Look at them under your magnifying glass and record what you see. 

These are the four powders we will be using. Upload a photo of each powder. 

1.  Cornflour
2.  Baking Soda
3.  Salt
4.  Sugar 

Materials

1. paper
2. pen
3. powder 
4. squeeze thing
5. magnifying glass 
Steps: baking soda
1. put baking soda on the paper
2. look and feel the baking soda and describe what it looks like and what it feels like.
3. then divide the powder in to three
4. then in one of the spaces put four drops of water
5. then on another space put four drops of iodine
6.  then on another space put four drops of vinegar

	Sugar	Salt	Baking Soda	Cornflour
Appearance	cubic	crystal	smooth	powder
Texture	rock	soft	rock	smooth
Smell	nothing	tangy	grose	nothing
Iodine	brown to black	brown	brown	black
Water	wet	wet	wet	slid off
Vinegar	clear	clear	bubbly	wet

conclusion: when I put the Iodine in the sugar it went from brown to black. then when I put the water in to the sugar it just looked wet. then when I put the vinegar in the sugar it went clear. When I put the Iodine in the salt and it went brown. When I put the water in the salt it just did the same thing that the sugar did. when I put the vinegar in the salt it just went clear. Then we put the Iodine in the baking soda it went brown. when I put the water in it went wet. when we put the vinegar in it went bubbly. for the corn flour 
Making Sherbet

Once you have completed your blog and cleaned up all your equipment you can make sherbet.

Using the following recipe you can make sherbet.

Sherbet recipe

Recipe:

1/4 tsp citric acid
1/2 tsp icing sugar
1/4 tsp -baking soda.
Put all ingredients into a zip lock bag, stir, and enjoy.

Materials:

1.  zip lock bag

2.  tea spoon

Steps

1. put the citric acid in the zip lock bag
2. put the powdered drink in the zip lock bag
3. put the icing sugar
4. put the baking soda
5. mix it all together

Findings: sherbet

Sherbet
Taste	yuck
Colour	pink and white

Conclusion

I think that we should not make this again because it was yuck.

plastic projects

we are making art work out of trash and we got to vote for an H or an sign or an native bird and most people voted for the native birds.

the past in drama

In the past week or two we have been learning about eating healthy and something that states that eating junk food is bad for you. CLICK ME! yaaaaaaay

reflection on DMIC maths

What is the activity today? the activity is when to people works for there mum in the holidays. We got into groups of three or four and then we got to answer these questions. Ariana gets 10 dollars in the first day and two dollars more each day for ten days. And the other one is Mauie gets 1 dollar and doubles each day. Then it said who would you rather be?. Then one of the members from my group worked out that 1+1=2+2=4+4=8+8=16+16=36+36=76+76=156+156=312+312=624+624=$1228. and Ariana is 10+2=12+2=14+2=16+2=18+2=20+2=22+2=24+2=28+30=32+2=34 so Ariana gets 34 dollars in ten days so my group would rather be Mauie.

crystals

Aim: To learn about a saturated solution and how to make crystals

Definition of solution: 

A liquid mixture, when something is dissolved into a liquid (eg: sugar in water) 

Definition of saturated:

Having or holding as much as can be absorbed of something (when no more sugar or borax can be dissolved into the water)

In groups of three you will make three different types of crystals and compare the results.

Borax Crystals

Ratio; 3 Tablespoons Borax per 1/2 cup water

Materials

1) A cup or a glass

2) pipe cleaner

3) Borax

4) Popsicle stick

5) string
6) warm water

7) spoon

Process

Step 1: Grab a cup or glass

Step 2: Put 3 table spoons of borax and 1/2 cups of water

Step 3: Add all ingredients in to cup 

Step 4: Mix it together with your Popsicle stick

Step 5: attach the string to the stick

Step 6: Make a star with your pipe cleaner
Step 7:  attach the star to the string
step 8:  Put your star into the borax and solutions

Sugar Crystals

Ratio: 1 cup sugar to 1/2 cup water

Materials

1) A cup or a glass

2) Popsicle stick

3) string

4) warm water

5) spoon

6) sugar

Process

Step 1: Grab a cup or glass

Step 2: Put 3 table spoons of sugar in the cup

Step 3: Add all ingredients in to cup 

Step 4: Mix it together with your Popsicle stick

Step 5: attach the string to the stick

Step 6: Put your string into the cup

Salt Crystals

Ratio: 4 Tablespoons salt to 1/2 cup water

Materials

1) A cup or a glass

2) Popsicle stick

3) string

4) warm water

5) spoon

6) salt

Process

Step 1: Grab a cup or glass

Step 2: 3 tables spoons of salt into the cup or glass

Step 3: Add all ingredients in to cup 

Step 4: Mix it together with your Popsicle stick

Step 5: attach the string to the stick 

Step 6: put your string in to your string into the cup

Findings

Describe your crystals in the table below.

Crystal Type	Shape (Describe the shape)	Size (of individual crystals)	Hardness (Crumbly to Rock Hard)
Borax	snow flake	small	hard
Sugar	crystal	not	formed
Salt	hexagonal	long	hard

What crystals worked out best and why?:
