Science Experiments!

Welcome to my Science Experiment!

Today, our teacher sent my class some work on Changes of Matter. It is about science and we had to choose between 4 different types of science experiments. But first, We watched a video about science  and the difference between physical and chemical change. Physical change is when a substance changes its form but is still the same substance it was before, where chemical change is when a substance changes completely. My experiment is a physical change because it change its form but it was still milk and food coloring.

So the science experiments are:

Chocolate Mug Cake

Color Changing Milks

Bouncing Bubbles.

Milk Plastic Tags.

The one that I did was the Color Changing Milk. You need:

Milk, Food Coloring, Dish Soap and a Cotton Swab. You pour the milk onto a plate and put one drop of 4 different colors of food coloring. Put dish soap on the cotton swab and stick the dish soap side of the cotton swab in the center of the milk, where the food coloring is. Then you will see the change!

Why I think this happened?

I think this happened because of a chemical in the dish soap that the food coloring wants to be separate, just like water and oil. This is just my prediction.  

Would you try this experiment? 

Thank you,

Maxmillian Kolbe

This Week, We learnt about a man named Maxmillian Kolbe. Maxmillian is a great man who cared for people and you will be able to see that once you read this DLO. We learnt about him and another man, Father Francis Vernon Douglas, because there are people in this world who don't get recognized for their amazing work. They are amazing people with so much potential and they deserve to get recognized.

Something I found easy: Finding the information was and putting it into my own words was a success
Something I found hard: I didn't find anything hard about it because all you have to do is find info, put it into your own words, add a title then your good to go.

Hope you like it!

ANZAC Diary Entry

WALT use descriptive language
 This week, We read a book called ANZAC Violin. The book was about one of the soldiers named Alexander Atkins took his violin to war with him. He played the violin for the other soldiers during the bad times. In the book, the author added a part from his diary which was describing how the war was. So our teacher gave us the task to write a diary entry using key words from the book. We had to use an attributes chart To brainstorm ideas for what we were gonna write. It also had to be real, we couldn't talk about unicorns or dragons. We were allowed to make as gory as we wanted but it also had to be appropriate. Then we got started on to our writing. So here is my diary entry.

As I lay wounded, the awful sound of the screams went into my ears and into my head. All I could see was the injured people who were dying. The thought that I could be just like them haunted me. I could see the blood gushing out of corpses and people collapsing to the ground. I could hear the gunshots being fired and the people shouting. It was very dirty and a bit muddy but it didn’t matter. I took a deep breath and inhaled a bunch of dust. The painful sound of the bullets scared me. As I tried to slowly crawl away, Someone landed dead in front of me. I gagged at the rancid smell of the dead corpse and went around it. I got up and started to stealthily walked. I could see bloody dead corpses in ditches half buried and people slowly dying.

Thank you!

Technology!

Today, My class, Room 6 had Technology. Technology is when you learn about other things than Math, Literacy and other subjects. You learn about science and cooking and design etc. Today we learnt about electricity. Our Teacher, Mr Heath had this device where you turn the handle around and the inside would make some sort of electricity and if you hold the two wires, the electricity will bounce from the wire to your hand and will go through your whole body. If you hold hands with someone, that electricity will go from the wire to you and to the next person. That was just one activity!

Our second activity was making key chains out of acrylic! Acrylic is a type of plastic. We had to use the acrylic to make a key chain. The acrylic has paper on the outside of it so that you can write on it and plan out what it is gonna look like. After you do that, you start cutting. We used a coping saw to cut it because a coping saw has a small blade, small enough to cut a thin piece of acrylic. After you have cut out your shape, you can choose what to do with it after. I chose to use this hot surface thing to melt the middle to twist it. And I wrote my name so it looked awesome!

I had a very fun time at Tech and I can't wait to go again!

Respect In Room 5!

When we were doing the Summer Learning Journey posters, We found out about this thing called 'Biteable'. It is really fun and easy to use! It is a website where you can create animated presentations. All you have to do is choose your theme and write your words down. You can even preview your video to see what you have done! We used this website for this activity. There has been a lot of people who haven't been respectful so We had to make a presentation using Biteable about Respect and how we can show it everyday. This will help us realise that being respectful is a good thing and that we need to be kinder to each other so here is mine:

Hope you like it and Have a Great Day!

The Game

In class, we read a book called 'The Game'. After we read it, we had to choose if we wanted to make our own controller or make instructions for 'Snakes & Ladders'. I chose to make my own controller. We had to add labels showing what the buttons are used for and what they can do. We could either make our own or use the ones like PS4 or XBox but make different buttons for it. I made one up. I hope you like it!
