Home Chemistry 1st April 2019

Aim: To learn the names of 10 household chemicals and identify if they are a solid, liquid or a gas.

Equipment:


1. Soap
2. Lemon juice
3. Salt
4. Vinegar
5. Sugar
6. Milk
7. Onion
8. Lemonade
9. Bleach
10. Baking Soda

Steps:

  1. Add the name of the ingredient into the chart
  2. Search for an image of the ingredient
  3. download and paste in into the chart
  4. Search for the chemical used in the ingredient 
  5. Find out if the ingredient is a Solid, Liquid or Gas

Task 1: Put the 10 chemicals in a chart with the titles - Name, Chemical ingredient(s), Image, Solid/Liquid/Gas.

Onion Gas
Sulfur gas

Bleach
Sodium hypochlorite

Baking Soda
Sodium hydrogen carbonate

Lemonade
Fructose
liquid




Conclusion:

For today's task I've learnt what a liquid, gas and solid is, and I've also learnt new chemicals that I've never heard of before and how they take part in different ingredients that I used daily. 

Find out what the difference is in the molecules in solids, liquids and gas.


The atoms and molecules in gases are much more spread out than in solids or liquids. They vibrate and move freely at high speeds. A gas will fill any container, but if the container is not sealed, they gas will escape. Gas can be compressed much more easily than a liquid or a solid


Gasesliquids and solids are all made up of atoms, molecules, and/or ions, but the behaviors of these particles differ in the three phases. ... gas are well separated with no regular arrangement. liquid are close together with no regular arrangement. solidare tightly packed, usually in a regular pattern.

Urumanu Playback

  Reflection Blog from our modified sports

What sport were you presenting?
My group and I we were presenting different fun ways and strategies 

What modifications did your group make, and why?
Our team (football team) we came up with two ways or two modifications of how to play, learn or modify Football. Football was still played the basic such as the ball must stay on the ground and it must be passed by kicking and we're not allowed to touch the ball unless it goes out of the boundaries then someone can only throw the ball back in.

One of the rules was that if your team score, the person who scored has to nominate one player from the opposite team, and they can either wait out (and support their team) or they have to go and wait patiently at the back of the the other team and wait for one of their team member to kick the ball to them and they have to catch it on the full, then they are allowed to come back in and play.

What went well?
What went well was that both teams (Ds and Sh) were both competitive and each team played by set rules and also they made sure that everyone in their team at least had a chance of playing even if they didn't want to play.

What would you change?
I would change how when I was trying to give out instructions or trying to explain to the opposite team how to play and some of them were constantly talking and yelling at each other, I think we need to work on how to show respect to each other when we are talking. 

By doing this as a leader never try to talk over someone that is constantly talking you can just wait patiently until you get their full attention.

If you disagree with someone's idea, don't yell at them and say their idea is not good enough just kindly say to them that you think that their idea can be improved by .... and then tell your idea. That is a way better way instead of trying to debate who's better. 

We needed to make a rule where people are not just sitting around and everyone if fully committed to playing Football.

What were the difference between your first and second sessions?
There was a huge improvement in our second sessions such as, we had more time to play the game instead of trying to get everyone's attetion while showing them how to play

The majority of us were fully committed to the sports we were learning how to play

some of us were finally listening to each other's ideas and showing each other respect

Reflection: Am I a leader? Why/Why not?
I think I am a leader, because I was able to listen to each other's idea and leading the group, and if we needed to solve a problem that I don't do it by myself and that the whole group takes responsibility.

CIP Project decision making

Today for Community Impact Project we decided to create a mural or masterpiece  out rubbish / trash picked up from the community. The mural is going to be about Birds an native animals related to Hornby High School / Hornby Community. 



How does this represent Hornby High School?
 This mural represents Hornby High School because in our school NZ Native birds are so special and has a important role in our school. Also our redevelopment (building) are going to be named after NZ Native Birds. 
It will also be really cool to make a art piece that we are all proud of all we can display that in our Hornby Community, showing our community how much Hornby High School care and cherish our Community. 

This photo (below) is a mural that I participated in making at our previous school: In the mural includes our school logo and the river and heart represents the river and how it's so important to our school.

Playback Urumanu

What did you do on Tuesday?
For Urumanu on Tuesday we had a game of Multi-ball where we played different ball games such as Basketball, Football, Netball and Rugby within 2-3 minutes. After that we got into our sports team I was in the Football team and we had to discuss within our sports group of two different ways to teach the rest of our Urumanu Class how to play Football. 

Within your sports group what worked well?
In our Football Sports group I think what worked well was that our whole group contributed and we all had amazing ideas to modify Football.

What do you need to change for next time?
For our Football Sports team I think what we can work better on for next time is that we need to listen carefully to each other's ideas and be respectful with each others opinions. But we will work good as a team.

What are you looking forward to when your present?
I'm looking forward that the rest of the class or the group of students that we are going to teaching that they understand the ideas of ways we have came up with to play football, also that we have a successful game of Football, also that we enjoy it and everyone follows set rules.

Here is a throwback photo of us playing Bench Ball! It was so much fun!

Angles - Movie Magic

     Movie Magic - Angles

WALT: I can explain a variety of camera angles used to make a movie.
For movie magic I tried or I have used fairly all the camera angles listed below to make my movie more effective and make it more mysterious for the viewers. Here are some of the angles and it will include a example photo.
  
   Over the Shoulder:
  An over-the-shoulder shot  refers to when the camera is placed just behind an "off-screen" actor so that their shoulder is in the frame while you capture the "on-screen" actor's coverage.

The Close-up
More intimate and ‘in your face’, the closeup aims at creating a stronger connection to the subject. Suddenly we can clearly see a person’s emotions and can easily connect with their humanity. If our subject is older, we may be able to see wrinkles of time, which tell a story within themselves. Close-ups are great when you want an intimate documentary style shot where the world disappears, and your subject is the clear focus.

The Long shot
Excellent for telling stories, long shots allow us to see not only our subject but also their environment. Depending on how a long shot is setup, we may find a person surrounded by their workspace, and thus we learn a bit more about their lives. Other times, a subject can be surrounded by seemingly endless isolated. Long shots help us to take photographs that establish a person’s position within the world.
The low angle:
Taking a photograph from a low angle, also know as a ‘worm’s-eye view’, makes subjects appear larger than normal. The lens sees the scene from a point of humility while the subject towers over the world. A photograph taken from a low angle to help establish dominance or power.
The Extreme-close up
The most intimate of all shots, the extreme close-up, goes beyond the standard close-up by focusing on a single feature. We may see a drop of sweat drip down a subject’s check or the fear in a pair of eyes. Close-ups may be shot with macro lenses due to how close they are to a subject. However they are shot, extreme close-ups allow us to get emotionally under the skin of our subjects.
