Today in the morning we were doing inspirational math with Miss Birch and we were doing it in groups the people in my group was Harry, John, Raneet and me we had to make a decision on who we would out of two kids they were doing jobs for there mum for the holidays the girl and the boy. The girl got 12 dollars and the boy got 1 but the boys price goes up and the girl gets two dollars everyday.
What was the activity today?
Today we choose who we would want to be out of two kids call Ariana and Matua I chose Matua because his money doubled up everyday in one week he got 191 and Ariana got 22 dollars in one week So that means that Matua
How did your group solve it?
What strategy did you use?
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.

Rubbish art
In you own words, what is the projects? The project is about trying not to litter your rubbish.
What is the purpose? To get all the rubbish of the ground and in the sea so the animals don't die.
How much rubbish do you think we are going to need? 500 600 because a car would be hard to make. why do you think that? Because cars are big.
What colors do you think we will see the most? Bottles that you can see to the other side. why? Because lots of people use them and then but them in the bin.
what type of art would you like to create? I would like to create a car.

Crystals
Aim: To learn about a saturated solution and how to make crystals
Definition of solution:
A liquid mixture, when something is dissolved into a liquid (eg: sugar in water)
Definition of saturated:
Having or holding as much as can be absorbed of something (when no more sugar or borax can be dissolved into the water)
In groups of three you will make three different types of crystals and compare the results.
Borax Crystals

Ratio; 3 Tablespoons Borax per 1/2 cup water
Materials
1) Water
2) Borax
3) Cup
4) Spoon
5) Popsicle stick
6) String
7) Pipe cleaner
6) String
7) Pipe cleaner
Process
Step 1: Get a cup
Step 2: Get a spoon
Step 3: Get the Borax
Step 4: Put it in the cup
Step 5: Put some water in
Step 6: Mix it around
Sugar Crystals
Materials
1) Spoon
2) Cup
3) Stick
4) Sugar
5) Water
Process
Step 1: Get a cup
Step 2: Get some Sugar
Step 3: Get some water
Step 4: Put sugar in the cup
Step 5: And then put some warm water in
Step 6: And then mix it up
Salt Crystals

Ratio: 4 Tablespoons salt to 1/2 cup water
Materials
1) Cup or glass
2) Salt
3) Warm water
4) Spoon
5) Popsicle stick
Process
Step 1: Get a cup
Step 2: Get warm water
Step 3: Put salt in the cup
Step 4: Put warm water in
Step 5: Tie the string on to the the Popsicle stick
Step 6: And then wait for about a day
Findings
That the sugar and the salt done the same but the the other one did not do the same as the salt and the sugar because the sugar and salt done nothing.
That the sugar and the salt done the same but the the other one did not do the same as the salt and the sugar because the sugar and salt done nothing.
Describe your crystals in the table below.
Crystal Type
|
Shape
(Describe the shape) |
Size
(of individual crystals) |
Hardness
(Crumbly to Rock Hard) |
Borax
| Icy star looking | big | hard |
Sugar
| nothing | nothing | Soft |
Salt
| nothing | small | Hard |
What crystals worked out best and why?: Borax because it had the star tied onto the rope
Conclusion: The best one was the borax

Hurumanu Drama
On Tuesday we done Hurumanu Drama we done puppets but we had to draw them first and then we had to cut them out at the I did not finish mine because I was drawing it I was working with Miss Clark my character was an old person and it was just like a normal person.
Athletics Day
Yesterday it was athletics day we got to choose what events we done I chose High jump 3000 long distance 200 m race. Shot put and 60 m race I came first in the 60 m sprints the 3000 long distance and then forgot to go to the 200 m race but it was not who came first. It was what time you got in all the races shot put was probably my baddest event the sprints was problem my best event and then I went to go watch my friends. It was really hot and sunny l done the 3000 long distance race in the morning when it wasn't really hot and then when it got near the end of the day it got windy we done relays at the end of the day and some of the teachers joined in at the end.

CIP Project
I have joined the Hornby High School CIP.
Because Hornby High School is the school I go to.
More things on the Canteen menu.
By working with the people from the canteen and asking people at Hornby High School what they would like to eat.
