Mindfulness PBS

Today We had our first session of Mindfulness PBS (Pause Breathe Smile). When we were doing this I felt very calm and peaceful and my mind kept drifting off and wondering different kind of things. One of the things we did was when we started wondering we had to say wondering. It was very calm and peaceful to do and I really enjoyed it because it kept my body calm.

TECH - Arm Length and Height

At TECH one of the activity we did was ARM Length and Height. My two buddies that did it with me were Arman and Mote. 

Here is the work we did: 

TECH - Floating and Sinking

 For this TECH activity, we did floating and sinking. We tested different objects to see if they floated or sunk, we used different kind of balls, wood and polystyrene. It was very fun and cool to do.

TECH - Lab Eqiupment

 For TECH we got to use different kind of science equipment, some of the equipment we used was a (Petri dish,  Thermometer, Bunsen burner and pipette. Here are photos of some of the equipment. 

Maths

On Tuesday 18 May for Maths we were split into groups of 4. I was with my class mates Mason, Pitara and Taijah, the task we had to do was to try and solve this problem: 

So what me and my group did was:

First we added 1/8 with 1/8 so 1/8 +1/8=2/8 and then we simplified it,

and to simplify the fraction we divided 2/8 by 2 so 

2 divided by 2 = 1

and 8 divided by two = 4

and that equals to 1/4.

So you will measure the cocoa powder with the 1/8 measuring cup

TECH - Osmosis and Transpiration

Today at TECH we experimented. For the experiment we filled a cup up with water halfway then we put food coloring in it, once we did that we dipped in the salary. After doing that we put a plastic bag over the salary but we made sure we left it a bit open so that the plant could get oxygen.

I enjoyed doing this experiment at TECH, it was lots of fun.     

Architecht

W.A.L.T: We are learning to create accurate floor plans for building a house. 

We used floorplancreator.net to do this. Here are my floor plans:  

What I learnt from doing this activity is was that we had to start off with a floor plan then we would have to find where the rooms will be and then we put in the furniture. 

When I grow up, if I join the building industry I would like to be an Engineer. I really enjoyed doing this activity. 

 

 

TECH Science - Bubble making

Today at TECH we had science, for science we learned things about bubbles. One of the things I learned was how they are made. When a bubble is made you will need water and soap to make it, once you have soap and water you will need to mix them, and then it will turn into soapy water, then you will put a straw in the soapy water and then blow the straw and the bubble will come out. Another thing I learned was the bubble is like a sandwich because the water is in the middle and the soap is on the top and the bottom forming a sandwich and in the bubble is air. These are the things I learned today at TECH and I hope you learned something from this too.
