Do Now - Week 8

 English is the most important subject in school. In school, you need English to speak, write and read. You need to know how to write and read because if there's a sign and it says something you will need to read, if you don't know how to read, you won't know what it is saying. The most important subject in school is English.

Week 6 - DO NOW

 Your name is an important part of who you are. Your parent gives you a name so people have a word to call you. Most names have good meanings to them. If you don't have a name, people don't know what to call you when they are speaking to you. You need your name to fill out the form and for your passport. Names are a really important part of who you are.

Evaporating

 Hello, Readers!

Today in Chemistry class we are learning about evaporating, condensing, and distillation.

Evaporation is when a substance gets heated up and it turns from liquid to gas.

Condensation is when you turn a gas into a liquid by cooling it up. 

Distillation is separating a solution using evaporating and condensing.

The aim of our experiment today is to use distillation to separate out the dissolved sugars in coke or coke zero and to see what the liquid looks like after we separate the sugars.

My hypothesis is the zero coke is gonna have less sugar and the normal coke has more sugar and the liquid will still have the same colour after we separate the sugar.

Essay

 Hello, Readers!

In English class, we are writing an essay about who we think is the most influential person in New Zealand and I'm gonna be showing you all my essays about Jacinda Ardern.

When you think of New Zealand’s most influential person you would probably think of Jacinda Ardern. Jacinda Ardern is New Zealand, current prime minister. She was born on 26 July 1980 in Hamilton.  Jacinda grew up as a Mormon in rural Waikato. Her father worked as a police officer and her mother worked as a school catering assistant. 

Jacinda started her political career in high school. Jacinda was awarded 210k NZD from Harvard University in America. She joined the New Zealand labour party at the age of 18. Jacinda Ardern became the world’s youngest female head of Government at the age of 37. 

Jacinda Ardern did an amazing job of keeping everyone safe and not letting the coronavirus spread. When it’s level 2 Jacinda made people who take public transport wear masks so if they were infected with the virus they don’t spread the virus to other people. In an emergency text message to the resident, Jacinda said “This is a message for all of New Zealand. We are depending on you," it read. "Where you stay tonight is where you must stay from now on. She fixes the lockdown really well by not letting people leave their houses to see their loved ones and telling people not to panic and stayed calm. 

March 15 2019 was a tragic day for the Muslim community. A terrorist attack in the Muslim mosque in Christchurch. 51 people were killed and 40 were injured. Jacinda wore a Hijab to respect the Muslim culture. Jacinda Ardern did an amazing speech describing the shooting that happens at 2 mosques. She said this quote  “they are us” has named quote of the year.

Jacinda Ardern influence and motivate people not give up because when things get tough she keeps pushing and not giving up. Most people look up to her as a real role model. All the hard work and all the good decisions making she did for our country made her the most influential person in New Zealand.

 The Principal is the most important person in the school

In school, the most important person is the teacher. The teacher does a lot of paperwork behind the scene. Before classes teacher has to set up the task for the student and write stuff on the whiteboard. In my opinion, The teacher is the most important person in school.

 The IP skilled I used today was being inclusive. The warm fuzzies I used are a good idea. I used this IP skill by including other people in my group and myself in the activity. Today I worked with Hamid, Faye, Travis, Kristall, Leo, and Chelsea. We worked well together by sharing ideas and helping each other out. If I got to do this activity I would try not to let my group fall out of the hula hoop. The Hellison's Behaviour Model I worked on today is level 3.

Concentration and Dilute

Hello, today in science class we are learning about concentration and dilute.

Concentration is a measure of how solute has been dissolved into the solvent. 

We can measure in two ways:

- How dilute something is...(how weak it is)

- How concentrated something is...(how strong it is)

Dilution means making something less concentrated.

Today experiment we are doing is a Serial Dilution.

Aim: Carry ut a Serial Dilution with Potassium Permanganate.

Hypothesis: I think it will turn purple when we add it with water.

Observation: When I add the Potassium Permanganate the water turns purple and as I add the liquid with thethe liquid became less and less purple.

Discussion: the First test tube has more  Potassium Permanganate so its purple and the sixth test tube has less  Potassium Permanganate so its colour less with a tint of purple.

Science - Filtering

Hello today in science class we are learning about filtering.

Filtering is about filtering things and separate different sizes particles. Filtering only works with only particles of different sizes. Today's experiment is we are making a mixture and separating it. The 2 chemical we are using is copper sulfate, a light blue liquid, and the other liquid is sodium carbonate. 

Hypothesis:

I think that when we mix the 2 chemicals the color will be light blue and I think will separate. 

Method: 

1. Pour approximately 50mL of copper sulfate solution into a beaker.

2. Add the same volume of sodium carbonate solution. A reaction will happen, you should see a cloudy blue precipitate form. Called copper carbonate. 

3. Watch demo then fold filter paper to fit inside the funnel

4. Place the funnel with the filter paper inside of it, into the mouth of a conical flask. 

5. Stir the mixture in the beaker, then carefully pour it into the funnel. 

6. Observe what happened.

Observation:

When we add the 2 chemicals it went dark blue and become cloudy. When we put it through the filter the liquid went clear and see through. The sodium sulficate was the clear liquid in the clinical flask and the copper carbonate was the solid blue cloudy bit on the top that didn't filter through.
