It's cool to be kind

Today I'm one of the student that got a chance to go to Hornby Elderly Daycare Center to see and to have a chance to talk to the old people there. Before we go there our teacher gave us a time to take one thing that we want to share to the people there, I decided to take my phone since there are some pictures and I decided to share my picture with my friends. That picture is we took after we watch a movie. Once we got there I feel so happy because there are so nice and some of them is make me remember my grandparents. After I share the things that I want to share to them we started to talk and ask some question to each other so that we can get to know each other. On the table I'm with Lhysette and we talk to the old and beautiful ladies their name is Pam, Maureen, Kay, Norma. I really enjoy talking to them because they are so nice and I know so much interesting things about them. I really want to go there again to have a chance to talk to the others that I didn't talk because we just have a short time. After that it's time to go back to our school we say goodbye at them and once we got outside me and the other student wave to them and they just laugh because we are waving until we reach the road. I really enjoy this and I want to go there again.

It's cool to be kind

Today for our community impact project we need to do a letter for someone important to us or to someone that close to us, you can right for your friend, teacher, family member or to anyone that important and close to you . At first I'm not sure if who I was going to write because i have so many people that important to me, but i decided to make a letter for my parents because they are the most important person to me because they sacrifice so much for us so i decided to write a letter to thank them and to say sorry for the wrong things that I did sometimes. I really like this topic for our community impact project because I have a chance to thank my parents for what they did for m and for my siblings. We did this activity so we can spread the kindness everywhere. I really enjoy this activity because it gave me a chance to right a letter so someone important to me.

Hurumanu - Solar Energy

Solar Energy

Catching the sun movie



Materials:


  1.  Cups (4)
  2.  Water
  3. Tin foil 
  4.  2 sheets of white paper
  5.  1 sheet black paper
  6. thermometer
  7. 1 large cup/

Steps

  1.   Get a cups, four small cups and 1 large cup and black paper, white paper and foil.
  2.  Put a water on the small cups but don't put too much.
  3.  Get the large cup and put it on the top of the one small cup.
  4.  After that place the 1 small cup on the white paper, 1 small cup on the white paper, one on the foil and the small cup with large cup on the top put it on the another white paper.
  5.   Get a heat lamp and make sure that light from heat lamp is going to a cup with water.
  6.  After that wait for 15 minutes before you measure the water and turn off the heat lamp and wait at least 15 minutes before open it again.

Which surface conducts / attracts the most heat?

Findings: 

I think our experiment going well because we find out the temperature and the temperature is going up and down.  But my group got confused because we have a lot of cup that we need to measure so we got confused. But i really enjoy this experiment because i learn how to measure the heat and i learn how the heat is forming.


Conclusion

I enjoy doing this experiment because i learn something new. We place our experiment kinda close to the door and while measuring the temperature of water we are sitting around our experiment which s helping to make more heat so that's why the heat is going up. I enjoy this because we did it right and we try and learn something new for science and because we did it right we an do our blog post right because we have the right details.

                                    Wind speed - Making an anemometer.

Anemometer

MATERIALS

   

  1.    4 cups 
  2.    4 straws 
  3.    Pencil
  4.    Tape
  5.     Pin

STEPS

  1.   Get all your materials and ready to start.
  2.   Get two straw and put the end of the other straw inside of the other straw.
  3.   Put a tape on the straws and you can create a x or + shape to see that you did write.
  4.   Put some pin on the straw to keep it secure and not able to broke if by the wind.
  5.   Under your cross and plus shape you can see something the pin poking out grad your pencil and push the eraser bit.
  6.  Now your done and you can the observation.
Once you have made an anemometer we are going to record the wind speed.

Group size: 5

You will need:

Anemometer (above) 

Roles:


  • Timekeeper
  • Counter
  • Recorder
  • Anemometer Manager
  • Wind generator
  1. Mount the anemometer in a place that has full access to the wind from all directions.
  2. When the time keeper says "Go", the counter in each group will count how many times the marked cup passes them in one minute and write it down.
  3. If possible, repeat the above step four (4) times and record the average number of spins on the chart.

FINDINGS

  • Record how many times it spins using the table below.
You will need to create the wind yourself by blowing. Get 4 different wind speeds by blowing.

You will need to time them and count the number of spins.

Time IntervalNumber of Spins
1.10 sec15
2.10 sec14
3.10 sec16
4.10 sec12
  • Can you make a statement connecting the number of spins of your anemometer and the speed of the wind? 

CONCLUSION:

I think i really enjoy this experiment because i learn something new while doing this because at first i really don't know what is Anemometer and how to use this but because of this experiment i know the it using to measure the wind. A also enjoy the part that we need to make our own anemometer and the time that we test it. I really enjoy this experiment because i learn something new that i didn't know before.

It's cool to be kind - Mufti Day

Last week for our community impact project in It's cool to be kind group before we start we watch a short film about kindness and we decided to have a mufti day and gold coin donation. On period one we share some ideas as a big group and after that we do some brainstorm as a group and share some ideas what theme can we do on mufti day. On our group we share some ideas like pigtails, black and white, denim, and bright colors, after that we share our ideas as a big group again and we some voting for what theme we can do to our mufti day some of us suggest a scary theme, black and white but after the voting out group decided that we are going to do a Radical Rainbow since a lot of us agree with it.  On mufti we also doing gold coin donation for kids can.  Kids Can is a charity that needed some things that they need but they don't have it, for our gold coin donation is going to Kids Can so we can help them. Last week we also do some posters and some of us do a DLO, the poster that we did is on around the school so that other students can see them since we are doing mufti and gold coin donation. The purpose of our mufti day is to help the Kids Can and to spread kindness on our community because being kind is one of the important thing that we need to learn how to do it. You can be kind just doing some simple things like helping others and be with them if they needed someone to comfort them if they had a problem. 

Here are the poster that I did for our mufti day and gold coin donation.
