Fantasy Modelling Book

Here is some writing I did

Modelling / Learning Focus / Success Criteria

Choose a picture that inspires you.

1. Write a simple sentence that describes something about the picture.
2. Add adjectives to the simple sentence, to add more detail.
3. Add more language features like similes or metaphors to enhance the sentence.
4. Use topic words directly related to the picture.
5. Use emotive language to create/clarify mood.

Paint a clear picture in the mind of my readers and give the reader detailed and specific information.

1.One more challenge.

2.One more simple challenge.

3.One more simple challenge until I could leave this world back to my own.

4.One more simple challenge thanks to my sword until I could leave this world back to my own.

5. One more simple challenge thanks to my sword until I could leave this world back to my own once I slay this dragon with its scales.

Hurumanu - Climate Change and Greenhouse gases

Hurumanu - Climate Change and Greenhouse gases

AIM: TO LOOK AT CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT.

THE GREENHOUSE GASES

The Greenhouse Effect experiment

Materials

1. 2 plastic bottles 
2.  3 heat lamps
3.  2 thermostatic 
4.  2 corks
5. baking soda

Procedure

1.  cut off cap parts of plastic botels to fit the corks
2. put corks in 
3. shove thermostat through corks  
4. put water in bottles 
5. put baking soda in 1
6. turn on heat lamps pointing at bottles
7. measure heat ever 5 mins

Findings: The Greenhouse Effect Data 

Minutes	Bottle 1: Water	Bottle 2: CO2 Gas
5	10	10
10	24	25
15	25	26
20	25	27

Conclusion:

The regular clean air will heat up slower because there is no gas traping in the heat think of the heat as water and the air like a sponge the regular air is a normal sponge soaking in the heat but the gas is a more absorbent powerful sponge is it soaks up more of the heat. 

Fossil Fuels

FACTORIES: Making clothes, cars, electronics, and processed foods creates a lot of pollution. When materials like plastic, cardboard, metal, and cement are made, harmful gases are released into the air and water.

COWS: Cows create a greenhouse gas called methane when they burp and fart. Methane is a greenhouse gas that is 25 times more powerful than carbon dioxide. With about 1.5 billion cows around the world, methane is having a big effect on climate change.

TRANSPORTATION: Most cars need gas or diesel to work. These come from oil, which is a fossil fuel. The carbon dioxide in oil goes into the atmosphere when the car is running.

LANDFILL: Our landfills are growing and using up more healthy land. When waste breaks down in landfills, greenhouse gases are created, including methane and carbon dioxide. These gases contribute to climate change.

FOOD: We need food to survive, but it creates a lot of pollution. Transporting food by ships, planes, trains, and trucks add carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. Clearing the land for farms and farming practices also create greenhouse gases.

ELECTRICITY: Electricity is a form of energy used to power almost everything in our homes. Electricity can come from renewable sources (water, wind, sun) and non-renewable sources like fossil fuels (oil, and gas). Fossil fuels release CO2 into the atmosphere.

lab Intro

Hurumanu - Science Laboratory introduction

Aim: To learn about the expected behaviour in a science laboratory.

Our R9 Class Treaty

1.    bags under your desk 
2.    no food and drink
3.   no running
4.   don't touch experiments
5.  report any breakage or spills
6.   do not taste or sniff anything

Safety in a laboratory.

teacher   shoes   practical  teacher laboratory   ask  sniff teacher  breakages 

1.   Follow the instructions given to you by the teacher.
2.   You must not enter the laboratory without your shoes.
3.   Report all accidents to your teacher.
4.   You must never eat or drink in a lab.
5.   shoes must be worn at all times.
6.   If you spill something you should tell your teacher immediately.
7.  You should wash your hands after every activity.
8. You should know what you are doing. If in doubt ask your teacher.
9. Never taste or smell chemicals.

In your group, discuss how the following scenarios could be dangerous.

1. Not putting your bag under your desk.  someone can trip
2. Running around in the laboratory. someone can trip
3. Not wearing shoes in a laboratory. you can stub your tow
4. Shaking a test tube with your thumb over its mouth? chemicals could harm your skin

How do we work in this laboratory?

1. Beginning and End of class: Lining up, Entry, Seating, 
2. Equipment tray: equipment list and details.

• Test tube - This is used for experiments using liquids. They have a bung that can be placed in the top. Test tubes sit in a test tube rack.Conical Flask - This is used for experiments with liquid up to 150 ml. The flask has a rubber bung for the top and the glass is heatproof.
• Glass Stirring rod - This is a 20cm glass rod used to stir and mix any liquids together.
• Test tube tongs - These are used to hold a hot test tube after an experiment.
• Spatula - This is for holding very small amounts of chemical powders.
• 
• Funnel - used to channel liquids into a smaller container.
• Measuring Cylinder - This is used to measure liquids for experiments. The liquids will be poured into a beaker or test tube once measured out.

Hurumanu: The Water Cycle

Hurumanu: The Water Cycle

AIM: TO LEARN ABOUT WATER ON EARTH.

Definition:

Scientific words:

• Evaporation. When water is heated by radiant energy it turns into water vapor.
• Transpiration. Evaporation from plants.
• Condensation. When water vapor cools, molecules join together and form clouds.
• Precipitation. When clouds get heavy the waters falls as rain, sleet, hail, or snow.
• Acidification: the action or process of making or becoming acidic.

THE WATER CYCLE SONG

THE WATER CYCLE EXPERIMENT

Bag 1: Normal Water cycle

Bag 2: Water cycle with CO2 added: like Oceans in climate change

Bag 3: Water cycle with ice added: like Antarctica in climate change

Material:

1. plastic bag
2.  water
3. litmus paper 
4. baking soda

Steps

Bag 1

1. Get a ziplock bag and a vivid pen
2. Draw the water cycle (label the parts of the water cycle)
3. Carefully pour 1 cup of cold water
4. Carefully drop 2 drops of blue food colouring
5. Stick the ziplock bag in a window where it receives sunlight.

Bag 2

1. Get a ziplock bag and a vivid pen
2. Draw the water cycle
3. Carefully pour 1 cup of cold water
4. Carefully drop 2 drops of blue food colouring
5. Carefully put 1 teaspoon of baking soda
6. Stick the ziplock bag in a window where it receives sunlight

Two Images:

Findings:

	The Water Cycle: Bag 1	CO2 Water Cycle: Bag 2 Acid
Does it cycle?	2	1
Amount of Water	3	2
Acidity	0	2

Key: Water and acidity amount: 1 = none 

2 = small 

3 = large

 Hi, guys today we were talking about self-management. In this topic, We talked about how we can manage our learning. She told us to get into a group of two and make a DLO. Something I did that shows that I am a self-manager is I was organized with all my things at the right time. What can I do to be a better self-manager? I can sit alone. Here is our DLO.
