Homework.

These few weeks Whaea Mel gave us our terms worth of homework. we had nine different tasks to do for each week. For the first week I did a mindmup challenge with was to explain how my family manages stress. 

The second week I made a alternative piece of candy that had no sugar. It is called Watermelon and Strawberry Lychee Drops. We were asked to explain what our inspiration was. 

This week I was doing doing the sleeping chart. For the sleeping chart you have to record you sleeping times and see which one is the best. I haven't finished it yet but once I have I will decorate it and make it look good.

Here are the finished and almost finished pieces of work I have completed.

I hope you enjoyed looking at my homework because I am very proud of it. Feel free to comment what you think about my homework.

Wellbeing

This Term for kete 7ld are learning about well being. for the first week of school we had to make a poster about what a healthy person would look like. We had to work with partners so I went with Phillip and Wajihah. It took us a while to finish the well being poster but we finished it in a matter of time. Here is the poster in all its glory

Working in a group is a little hard for me because I normally work alone but I did help a lot with this. 

I hope you enjoy our well being poster. Feel free to post your feedback on what you think.  

Science

Hands on fire

Aim: I want to Safely be able to set myself on Fire.

Hypothesis: I think the hypothesis is that when your hands are lit on fire it will burn and start to sting.

Equipment:1.Water
2.Soap (Detergent)
3.Lighter
4.Safety Glasses
5.Lab Coat

Method
1.Be SAFE.
2.Wet your hands, Wrists and forearms.
3.Grab a scoop of bubbles.
4.Hold the bubbles in front of your face, as far away from you as you can. Lock your elbows.




5. To get rid of the fire, SLOWLY move your hands apart.

6. DO NOT DROP YOUR HANDS BELOW YOUR EYE LEVEL because the fire goes up and you will set yourself on fire.

Results:
The results are that when you set someones hands on fire the hands cause a big fire and that results to you putting your hands down. It will also hurt and could cause you have burnt hands

Conclusion:
In conclusion setting your hands on fire is dangerous but fun. you 

Science

Dry Ice and Water
Aim: To watch dry ice and water mix together  to make coloured bubbles.

Equipment:

2. 80 Mls Water.
3. 3 drops food colouring.
4. Detergent.
5. Measuring beaker.
6. Icecream container.

Which gas is the heaviest?
Aim: To find out which gas is the heaviest  out of co2 and o2.

Equipment:
1.Test tubes
2.Test tubes rack
3.Dry ice
4.Water
5.Balloon

In conclusion Co2 is the heaviest gas out of o2 and co2.

Here are some photos on our experiments.

Science

Today for science we learnt how to use the bunsen burner by ourselves. we had to set the flames in different colours to complete our task. We had to work in pairs of three but there would of been one person alone so Genica went went with Natalia while I went with Ella. It was really fun to use the bunsen burners because Last year we were allowed to come and see what Hornby High could offer to us and we used them and changed the flames colours to Green, Blue, Yellow or Red. While completing the checklist that we had to tick off while using the bunsen burner Mr Palmer signed our Bunsen Burner Licences so we could use the bunsen burners with no problem. Here is the checklist and my Bunsen burner Licence.

Bunsen Burner Checklist.

Rules:

1. The location of the lab fire extinguisher and safety blanket is known.

2. Safety Glasses were worn

3.Long hair was tied back and loose items of clothing tucked away.

4.The bunsen Burner was placed on a heat resistance surface

5. The bunsen burner is not too close to the edge of the desk.

6.The burner was connected to the gas tap correctly.

7.The rubber tubing was checked for cracks or leaks.

8.The air hole on the bunsen burner was closed before lighting

9.The splint was lit before the gas was turned on.

10. The splint was positioned correctly while the gas was turned on.

11.The student can adjust the flame safely.

Gif Making.

A few weeks ago Whaea Mel showed us a website called Giphy. Giphy is a website that lets you make Gifs like this one. I felt like Giphy was hard to use and it was. I had to use videos instead of photo's to make my gif so I went on another website.

A gif is a animated video like photo that can explain something or just is for fun. When I was making my first gif I needed help so I looked if there were any videos on how to make a gif. I looked on some blogs until I found a useful video to help me. It also helped because this person was in my class. The first thing I did was make a slide show for the gifs I would be making. Then I spelled the words hello as my first gif. After I made some more slides then deleted the words until it was the letter I wanted it to be. I did that until I finished the words 'hello'. I downloaded them with the file and download as feature. I then went on this website called Animated Gif Maker and started to put my downloaded images down to make the Gif. After that I ordered them the way I wanted it to be and made the Gif by clicking 'create animation.' here are a few of the Gifs I made in a few minutes.

Reflection:

Overall I think that making Gifs are fun. They do take time but once you are done you will feel proud of what you have done. I think with time I could be an expert on Gifs and teach everyone else in my class how to make gifs. If you want to learn how to make gifs then the links above will help you. Please comment what you think about this site and what you think about my gifs I made.
