I am a student at in Uru Mānuka. In 2020 I was a year 8 and in 2021 I will be a year 9. This is a place where I will be able to share my learning with you. Please note....some work won't be edited - just my first drafts, so there may be some surface errors. I would love your feedback, comments, thoughts and ideas.

Volleyball
My skills before we started the unit weren't that good; it was like learning something new.
My volleyball skills now are very good. I feel like I'm better than before.
A specific skill that you can use in a volleyball game is a set.
The hardest thing in volleyball is angling where the ball goes.
The thing I like the most about volleyball is spiking.
If I am doing p.e next year I would like to work on my spiking.

Calypso
Listening to this song reminds me of the times I've had in Tonga. The music just rhymes with my imagination. The song has no words but beats, it sounds like Mexican music, the beat and everything just goes with the Mexican music.
Simile:
This one girl's voice sounds like a dying cat when she sings. Her voice just cracks and her tune is just, ugh off like I would rather listen to this song 10x then hearing her sing.

they were used to cross rivers because it took a long time to built a regular bridge and swim across.
why are they built?
to connect with planks and rope.
how are they reusable?

do now week 2 (schooner)
schooner
Schooner has a sailing ship rigged with fore-and-aft sails on its two or more masts.
as you can see a schooner looks like it has a cross on it and things that i dint know the name of it.
if i was sailing on a schooner and looking out into the view i would stand in the middle and i would see lots of fish (if there are) and i would hear the wave splashing into the boat.

Convection and conduction are both types of heat transfer where energy is passed from hot to cold.
When an object is heated up, the particles in it start moving faster as they gain energy.these particles also try to spread out as the gaps between particles get bigger.
if an object is heated from one end, the particles can transfer heat along. This is conduction.
some objects are good at passing on heat- these are called thermal conduction-
objects which are bad at passing thermal insulators.
conduction - transferred through contact.
thermal insulators - do not pass on heat.
thermal conduction can pass on heat.
curtains
insulting-pink baits
blankets
polar fleece
convection- non contact energy transfer, usually in liquid
as heated particles expand and move faster they also rise up. As this occurs colder particles sink because they are more dense(as particles are closer together).
this process continues eventually the whole liquid would get heated up.
this movement is called convection currents
It can also be seen in air, as warmer air is less dense and rises.
convection-non contact heat transfer. hot stuff rises, cold stuff sinks.
- the teabag was lit on fire and they spread out into the air because is was hot but when it was cold it came down.
In 2021 may 31 Monday period 4 (today) we learned about filtering. Hello my name is sita and today we are learning about filtering,this is what is means
filtering-separating different sized particles out of a mixture.
Aim: make salution and to saparate a solution from a precipitae.(preciptate is the name for a solid that forms in a liquid during a chemical reaction)
hypothesis: i think its gonna explode.
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.
observations and discussion:
hygiene saftety
- wash hands. 1.hair tied up
- shower 2.no jewellery
- santize hand 3. covered in shoes
- clean 4.carry knife blade down
- hair tied up 5.no loose clothing
- apron 6.no running
- no nail polish 7.use oven mitts for hot trays 8.report breakages 9.use correct chopping boards 10. wash hands after handling meat. 11. use gloves if you have sticking plaster or cuts.
types of energy
- When the burner of a stove top is very hot, it is a source of heat energy
- walking, falling, flying, and throwing.
- Sound energy is produced when an object vibrates, which results in noise.
- Sunlight is the best example for light energy.
- electrical energy to charge our phones, and our muscles using electrical energy to contract and relax
- The coil spring of a wind-up clock. An archer's stretched bow. A bent diving board, just before a divers jump.
- A raised weight,water that is behind a dam, a car that is parked at the top of a hill
- A book on a table before it falls. A child at the top of a slide.
