Venn Diagram about Pirate Jobs!

This week and last week we had to make a Venn diagram about pirates and their jobs on deck. On one side we had to put pirates that work on land and on the other side we had to put jobs of pirates that work at sea and then in the middle it was the jobs that were on both. 

Something we also had to include was what job we would want to do if we were a pirate. I would be a Cabin Boy ;) I don't really know why I would want to be a Cabin Boy but that was the one that I was most interested in! 

Something I found hard about this was that I was kind of confused on which one they went on and I still am but I tried ;) 

Something I liked was reading about the different jobs of the pirates.

What pirate job would you choose to do if you could?

Piracy Throughout the Years :0

Hii! This week and last week for topic we had to make a timeline about piracy throughout the years. It had to be from the 15th century to the 20th which is now. Me and a lot of people were writing down notes about each century and the different pirates because we had to include where exactly they would operate and we could include famous pirates in that century. It was kinda hard to find pirates in the 19th and 18th century but I completed it so that was okay. ;)

 Something I enjoyed about making this timeline was putting all the info onto the timeline because it was fast and easy. Something I found hard was like how I said it was kinda hard to look for info about the 18th and 19th century and it was also kind of hard to write about a bunch of different pirates but yea. 

Here is my time line ;w;

States Of Matter

Aloha everyone!

This week on Friday we were given the task to learn about the States Of Matter! We had to look through the slideshow that talked about the 3 different types of matter which were solid, liquid and gas! After looking through the slideshow and reading everything there was a google form to do to test you on how much you learnt from it! I got 12/12 from it. After this there was the activity! In the activity it was teaching us about the matters and we had to make oobleck but on our hangout call Ms Wilton said if we don´t have the ingredients for oobleck we can make something else because its just supposed to be showing the changes. She even said we could just make an omelette and put cheese in it because it would melt and you can´t change that back into it form so I did!

I made a cheese omelette to show a change of matter. The eggs were like a liquid matter because it changed its shape to fit into the bowl or the pan, and the cheese was a solid because it stayed the same if I put it in the eggs. But when it was done the egg turned into a solid and the cheese melted. It kinda looked bad cause it kept breaking when I was trying to lift it from the pan ;(

I gave it to my sister cause I don´t like cheese but she said it was good!

Something I found hard was making this omelette and I don´t know why I think it was the transferring part and it took agesss

Something I liked about this was learning more about the different types of matter!

ANZAC BISCUITS!!!

Konnichiwa everyone! 

This is one of the last posts I´ll be doing today! So as a lot of you may now ANZAC Day is tomorrow! Last term we did a lot of activities near the end of the term for ANZAC Day and we were given today to again complete one or more activities that were related to ANZAC Day if we had the things for it or if we had enough time.

There were 4 activities that we could choose out of or do all of them and I chose to make the ANZAC Biscuits and DLO about the ANZAC Biscuits. I took 3 pictures for my ANZAC Biscuits. I also didn´t have any shredded coconuts for it.

Here is my ANZAC Biscuit Poster!

Heres the mixture!

It was kind of dry so I added a bit more hot water and since I didn´t have any more butter I just put canola oil :(

In the beginning I didn´t check if we had enough butter and ended up not having enough:( but it was okay still. I also remembered to wash my hands before I started baking. REMEMBER TO DO THAT IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!! When I had made the mixture and put it on the tray I opened the oven and realized that there were trays in there while it was preheating and I panicked but my dad said it was alright! 

In the instructions it says to bake for about 8 - 10 mins but mine ended up going in for 20 mins! 

Here they are!

There were 10 and I had given my mum and dad one before. I shared them with my family!

I took the photos on my trampoline because I thought it would be better lighting but when I was trying to take the photo with the chrome book it just blocked out the sun :(

Something I found hard doing this was not having enough butter and I was trying to get all of the butter out but on the food scale it said there was only 60g out of it ;(

Something I enjoyed with this was the finished product because it tasted really good and I enjoyed sharing them!

In the end I had loads of fun doing this activity and I cant wait for ANZAC Day and to get more butter so I can make more tomorrow! 

Chocolate Mug Cake!!!

Kia Ora everyone!

Hope you are all staying safe at home! So as you may know we are still in quarantine and have online school. On Fridays my class would usually be going to tech (Technology) today so it was kind of like our own tech at home! We were assigned to watch a cool video about physical and chemical changes! In the video it showed examples of physical and chemical changes and underneath the video there were paragraphs that summarized the meaning of physical and chemical changes.

Chemical change means: Chemical change is when a new kind of substance is made e.g if you mix a gummy bear with hydroxide together it makes a gas which is a kind of substance!

Physical change means: A physical change is when there is no new substance made e.g if you put mentos into coke it will start to fizz and carbon dioxide will come out of it. This is still a physical change because carbon dioxide is one of the things that are used to make coke!

So after taking in all the new information that i had learned it was time to move onto doing an activity! There were 4 different science experiments that we could choose from and we could either do all or just one. I chose to do one activity. By the title you can tell what experiment i chose to do, but if not I decided on making a Chocolate Mug Cake! 

While i was making it I was kind of worrying about it overflowing but when it came out it was actually small! I actually had made one in the morning but then just ate it and forgot to take a picture of it. oops. So i made another one remembering to take a picture before eating it. After making another one I didn´t like it as much as the first time and ended up not finishing it but it was still pretty good :).  After cleaning up everything I got it out of the microwave when it had finished.

It looked kind of weird the second time i made it but it was all good!

After taking it out and making sure to take a picture of it i topped it with ice cream and sprinkles and some chocolate. Yes i did eat 2 but the first time it had nothing on it and I was sharing it with my sister and mom!

For the experiments the reason we  had to try at least one out was because it was to see if we thought there was a physical or chemical change in it. For me I thought that this was physical change because all that happened was the appearance of it changed. So It was only a physical change that happened.

I didnt really have any troubles with doing this experiment and it was actually really fun and easy to complete! 

Here is the link to the way to make the Chocolate Mug Cake if you are interested in making a quick and easy dessert!

Like i´ve said before hope everyone is staying safe and remember to stay home and wash your hands!

Starry Night Poem

WALT recreate a famous artist's painting, while incorporating New Zealand Themes and Celebrations.

For this we had to recreate Vincent Van Gogh's Starry Night Painting and we turned it into a Matariki painting including the Seven Stars of Matariki. After that we made a poem about stars and after we did that Mrs Lee took a picture of our Matariki paintings and we put it onto a google drawing and then put in our poem.
