Community Impact Project Week 7

This week in community impact projects we are going to try and pick as much rubbish as we can to recycle and make art. 

A little bit like this:

I think the purpose of this is to make the school cleaner and make some cool art so people can see it. Also maybe it might make other people not put as much rubbish on the ground or anywhere else. 

I think we are going to get a few big bags full of rubbish, I don't know why I think that but I just do. Maybe it might be less or maybe there might be more.

The colour I think we are going to see the most is white or clear but I really don't know.  It might be a few different colours but I think its going to be white or clear because there might be white or clear packaging. 

I think it will be fun to make a house or a person, I have no idea why but I thought it might be cool to do those 2.

Hope you like my blog post, bye.

Drama Week 6

In drama we got back in our groups from last week and we made puppets about the performance we are going to do at the end of drama. We will move onto something different at the end of the term. When we made puppets we had to search up paper bag puppets and we had to think about ideas for our puppets. After we searched I did strawberries and someone else in my group did a watermelon I forgot who though.

The next time we did drama which was today we made a plan to do our performance or we started our plan and wrote all the small details, next time we are going to write about what we are going to do. But today we were writing who was in our group, whats our performance means, our group name and who's in our group.

That's all we did this week, bye.

Athletics Day

Yesterday was athletics day and I'm going to tell you what I did and what happened.

When I got to school I normally get to school before the bell rings so I just hang out with my friends until the bell rings for class. When the bell rang I lined up outside my class until our teacher lets us in the class. When we got in class the competitive people had to go so before #my teacher did the roll she wrote all the names down of people who left to go to competitive athletics.

After the competitive people went to the gym all the social people stayed in class until 10:15. From 8:30 till 10:15 my class was just doing some of our work and a bus card activity. Right before 10:15 my class played a game. After we finished the game we went to our house meeting places. The houses are Shelford, Setu, Turner and Lewis. I'm in Shelford and my house colour is green, some of my friends were in Shelford we just talked and ate our morning tea until the house leader went through our house chant with us.

Right after going through the chant one more time the people who wanted face paint could get some but I didn't get any neither did my friends. When every one had there face paint on and ready we went to the field with everyone else. When we were on the field I went to see my other friends that were in different houses until our first event. All the yr 7 and 8 girls were in a group, that was the group I was in most of the day. First we did shot put and we had to line up the when it was your go throw the shot put.

After shot put we went to the sprint track but the sprints were going slow so after 5 - 10 minutes of waiting at the sprint track we went to high jump. If you wanted to you could jump more than once but I just jumped once and then watched my friends jump. When we ran out of time at high jump we went back to the sprint track and waited. We thought they missed us but right after we thought we missed sprint they called our to do sprints. After we all ran we had a few minutes until we had discus, some of my friends thought discus was on one side of the field but it was on the other side of the field.

A few minutes later we were at the long jump pit watching everyone before our group was called to do long jump. Everyone could do as many jumps as they want but they at least had to do one jump. I just did one jump but I watched all my friends. Right after my friends finished their long jump we watched the relay.

The relay was pretty cool but I was so hot that day I needed loads of water so my friend and I went to go fill up our drink bottle. After we finished it was 3 and we got to go home.

That's all about athletics day, bye

Scones

In science we were making scones and this is how we did it.

Aim: To look at different kitchen ingredients in scones and their effects.

The normal scone recipe:

• 1/2 cup Edmonds standard flour

• 1 tsp Edmonds baking powder  or 1 tsp baking soda                            

• 2 tsp butter

• 1/4 cup milk, approximately or 1/4 cup lemonade.

We had to do the normal recipe for scones then we had to choose a little different ingredient than in the normal recipe

The recipes my group did:

1. Normal
2. Normal but instead of milk we used lemonade.
3. Normal but instead of baking soda we used baking powder

Materials:

1. Milk or lemonade
2. Butter
3. Baking powder or soda
4. Bowl
5. Something to mix with
6. A Chromebook

Process

Step 1: Get in a group
Step 2: Find out what person is doing what, mixing in the bowl, putting it on the bake sheet, or getting the ingredients
Step 3: Get your ingredients
Step 4: Wait for the mixer to finish mixing the ingredients
Step 5: Put the dough on the bake sheet
Step 6: Do all that again 2 more times

Findings:

What scone	Height	Taste	Colour
Normal	5 cm	Dry	Cream
With lemonade	4.5cm	Sweet and moist	Cream and white
With baking powder	4cm	Moist but burnt	Golden

Conclusion:

My normal scone was 50 mm or 5 cm tall, it was dry and it was a creamy colour. The second scone was with lemonade instead of milk also it was 45 mm or 4.5 cm tall and it was a creamy white colour. Also the last scone was with baking powder instead or baking soda, it was a golden colour. The normal scone tasted pretty dry, the 2nd scone tasted sweet but moist and the 3rd scone tasted burnt but moist in the middle. The scones were all cooked for 10 minutes and they were also cooked and 200 degrees.

Procedure writing DLO

Today I am going to show you a DLO that I made with Hayley. We had to make a DLO about procedural writing. Procedural writing is basically making a step by step writing but if you want to know exactly how to do this you can look at our DLO.

Here is the DLO we made:

I hope you like our work, bye

Drama

This week in drama with Miss Tozer we were talking about physical well being and we were making a video on what physical well being is and how to show it. Our group did a stop motion and we did 6 facts how to keep your physical well being healthy.

Then with Miss Clark we were starting to practice for the end performance we were going to going to share with the yr 7&8s. Today we got into groups of 2 - 4 people in the group. The people in my group were Meleana, Danni and I. We had to choose one of the four parts of well being. We got put in spiritual and we had to ask Miss Tozer for some ideas and she just told us, Meditation, reading a book or praying. Because we tried to think of our own ideas. But when we couldn't Miss Tozer gave us those 3 ideas. We actually used one and it was meditating.

When we were preforming us just standing there meditating I don't know why but I laughed for no reason. So I feel over trying not to laugh and then we were done so I ran back to my seat. After that we watched all the groups and then we went to morning tea.

Hope you like my post, bye.
