Science Topic 2

On Tuesday my science class was testing out laboratory Equipment. Using the laboratory Equipment we did an experiment, on how long sugar takes to dissolve in hot and cold water.  The time that me and my buddy got for the hot water was 24 seconds and in the cold water was 1m.12s   

Task 1

Aim of the experiment:

How long does sugar take to dissolve in hot and cool water:

Equipment:

• A weighing machine or a pair of scales

• Spatula

• A pipette (or proper)

Results (the outcome):

Cool water: 1m.12s 

Hot water: 24 seconds

The average times 

The cold water is 1min to 1min thirty.

Flower Power

 

Today for tech my class was dissecting a hibiscus. 

The aim was to carefully dissect a hibiscus flower and bud.

The goal of this activity at the end is to know the parts of the flower and what the function of each part is. 

• Be able to dissect a flower and arrange the parts.
• To be able to speak of the flower.
• complete a diagram of the different parts.

flower thoughts:

Your thoughts about the flower. Cool, smells nice

What you have notice about the flower they are important

What you know. They help us by making fruit.

Science

Tuesday was the first day of the year sevens and eights new teach class. I am now in science. 

The first thing group c did was, writing down 5 science word I wrote 1. Bacteria 2.Flora 3.Physics 4.Brain  5.eyes

The second thing we did was, write down four things that make a plane fly. I did Thrust, lift, weight and drag. We also learnt that what each of them mean. Thrust means who it moves. lift is when the air comes from under the plane causing the plane to fly. weight this weights down the plane. Drag is making the plane go slower so that the plane does not go to fast.

Then the third thing we did was, make a paper plane and see how far we could fly our planes, across the room. The farest that I got was 7 meters then, the lowest i got was 4.90 meters.

distance	5.10m	7m	4.90m

Stereotypes

Quotes about education

"Nice and expensive items can be enjoyable, but there are very few things in life that can never be taken ."

to me this quote means, if you buy nice, expensive, enjoyable things can be stolen but knowledge will never. 

Food tech learning.

My learning experience for the first term of food tech. I have learnt how to eat healthier and that you have to be patient. 

Both of these are very important not just in cooking. 

My first ever recipe was a smoothie it was very easy then we did mince in a lettuce cup that was also pretty easy then we did steak in a bun then today we did popcorn chicken with a side salad 

which was very delightful but not in my common taste.  

My favourite dish was lettuce cups and mince because, I like lettuce and I like mince. 

My least favourite dish was steak in the bun because, I don't like steak.

So my experience at Tech was very cool and very new to me as I've just started this school.
