pH blog
- Aim: why did we do the experiment? To test the Ph of range of household chemicals.
- Equipment: what did you use for your experiment? – Spotting tiles, red litmus papper, blue litmus paper, universal indicators solution, safety glasses.
- Method: what steps did you complete to get your results for your experiment?
- Using the household chemicals and add it to the Spotting tiles.
- Adding the universal indicators to the spotting tile we can tell pH level of which household chemicals are acid, basic or neutral.
- Using the blue or red litmust paper we can tell by the change of colour of which also making adic,basic,neutral.
- Discussion: starting discussion questions (you can include more detail)
- Why did different household chemicals change different colours? Use following words in your answer: acid, base, neutral
- How did you know if these chemicals were acidic or basic?
Using universal indicators we can finding out which household chemicals are acid, basic or neutral. Different chemicals change colour because they were acid,basic, neutral. For example, floor cleaner turned purple in universal indicator meaning it was basic.
- Conclusion: starting conclusion questions (you can include more detail)
- did all your experiments work – if they didn’t, why?
- What could you do to improve next time?
Parachute
Title: Egg parachute experiment
Aim: make sure we had the slowest falling egg.
- Why did we do this experiment? to see how much air resistance slow down the parachute.
In this experiment we were timing how long it took egg parachutes of different designs to hit the ground. This was investigating the physics concepts of air resistance and mass.
Method:
- Numbered steps of the experiment. Should include planning, building, and dropping your parachute.
- First we plan the design of our parachute.
- Then we collected the materials we needed to make our parachute. These materials included: list materials here
- Blank paper
- Strings
- Plastic bags
- After making our parachute we took it upstairs and dropped it. We counted how long it took for the parachute to hit the ground using a stoptimer .
Results:
- Did your egg break? How long did it take for your egg to fall? did not finish my parachute.
Discussion:
- Did some of the parachutes fall faster than others? yes the fastest one was 0.67 seconds
Conclusion:
- How would you improve your design next time? build one the next time
PE athletics
Today I will talk about how athletics day was canceled and how I did by partisipateing in high jump, long jump, disscus,shotput and 100m sprints.
My resaults:
- In Disscus I got 17.3.
- For Shot put I got 6.5.
- Long jump I got a 1.
- The rest got a 0
The weather was rainy. It was hard to do it in the rain so it was canceled because of the rain. So we had to go back to class and get on with our school work
I felt good when I did disscus because I came in the top 5 in my class during PE.
someone that surprised me was Kahu when throw the shotput far and came in second during P.E.
My friend renz did well in 100m sprints because he was tired but then tied up with first place.
One thing that I could have done was try more in long jump
The highlight of my day was walking around school, talking to my friends and doing no work
Next year I hope to achieve disscus and partisipate in all of the athletics .
Key concepts blog
Describe what the activity was that you participated in? Today we did a hula hoop challenge for health. The rules are keep your feet to the beat and two people on each side.
Which two areas of hauora were affected when you participated in the game? The two areas of hauora that were affected by participating is Taha tinana and Taha whanau
How were these two areas of hauora affected? My Taha tinana was affected positively because it is healthy for my body. My Taha whanau was affected positively by being more societal.
Do you think fairness OR inclusiveness were shown today? How? Fairness was shown today. this was because everyone is showing respect to eachother.
How well do you feel that you participated in today’s activity? Why is that? I felt tired at first but I picked it up the second time I on to it and in sink with partner on the other side.

Salt march
The Salt March. This is a march that was done by mahatma Gandhi to stop salt tax.
The Salt March was one of the most famous early acts of civil disobedience led by Mahatma Gandhi. It was part of India’s protest to gain independence from Britain. The Salt Act prohibited Indians from collecting or selling salt, forcing them to buy from the British. This was a big problem as the British put a heavy tax on the salt. This hurts Indians as salt is considered a necessity for cooking. His resistance to the Salt Act started a campaign of mass civil disobedience called Satyagraha.
In 1930, Gandhi and 79 of his followers started to walk towards Dandi, a distance of 240 miles. During the 24 days of the march he spoke with thousands of people convincing them to join the march. When he reached the coast he started to collect salt in defiance of the law. Gandhi was arrested along with roughly 60,000 other Indians.
He was released from prison a year later and started to negotiate with Britain. Eventually he agreed to call off the satyagraha in exchange for an equal negotiating role at a conference on India’s future.
| Words to Use
Satyagraha, negotiate, independence, 60,000, Mahatma Gandhi, tax, disobedience |
My opinion:
In my opinion what Mahatma Gandhi did with the Salt March was brave even though it took him a month. He was probably very tired and sore but he persevered. I think this because he made sure he would not return till he had salt to stop the British government from taxing salt tax. My evidence for this is he was annoyed that the british was chrageing them tax for salt. He wanted to find the salt because he wanted legitmactiy for no salt tax. In conclusion Mahatma Gandhi did this against the salt tax imposed by the British government in India.

DNA extraction
On monday we did a experiment on DNA.
One thing I learn from this experiment, is that I know how to extract DNA from a banana.
what can you use dna extraction for? you can use it to study genetic causes of disease.
Method:
1..Chop up the banana in half.
2.Put the banana into a bag. Place the banana pieces into a sealable plastic bag.
3.Squash the banana.
4. Add salt to warm water.
5. Add washing up liquid.
6. Pour into the bag.
7. Sieve or something to drain the liquid

Making zombies.
What we did was make a zombie with genes of the zombies.
by the Lowcase s or uppercase S are the alleles to find out what skin colour of the zombie and the phenotype meaning it’s most likey to be white or black.
The way you can out what your zombies is going to look like is the tables and adding the lowercase and uppercase of the alleles of the mother and father.
gene meaning something you from parents
An allele is one of two or more versions of DNA .
genotypes means the genetic makeup of an organism .
Phenotype is your appearance on the outside like your hair,skin and more.
how to fill out a punnett squares? Have a letter and have to fill out in a table. if its SS or Ss it’s the same but if it’s ss it’s diffrent to them to.
What’s the point of it? To figure out where get your genes and other stuff from your parents.
