Shark Infested Custard Game

 Kia Ora, 

Today on Monday for health we played a game called Shark Infested Custard Game. To play this game you would need about 5 to 6 people in a group. And you will also need 3 hoops to play this game, this is a competition so you will be racing with other groups to get to the finish line. So basically how you play is you have to put the hoops down on the floor then get inside the hoop with your team without falling off. Then you just have to put the hoops down, get in and try to reach the other end first.

My 100 Word Story

 Kia Ora,

Today for this week in ESOL we have been focusing on writing and some of the writing challenges we have done is called the 100 word story. A 100 word story is basically what the name suggests, you write a 100 word story. But your story needs to have exactly 100 words you can't get it over 100 or under, even if its 99 or 101.

Below is the 100 word story that I have made about speaking in front of the whole class and how I fell about it.

Speaking in front of the whole class is one of my greatest fears. This is because I am really shy and I get really nervous whenever I stand in front of a class whether I know the people or not. I also get pressured when I stand in front of a class because it’s like they are waiting for me to speak or speak faster so that really prevents me from speaking properly. Another reason why I might be nervous and scared is because my friends might be watching me and get teased for it. And those are the reasons.

DILUTING EXPERIMENT

 Which test tube had the most concentrated sample of Copper nitrate? The one who didn't have any water in it and the bluest one of them all.

When we added water what were we doing to the concentrated of the solution? We were diluting it down making the chemical weaker.

Which concentration of copper nitrate formed the most precipitate, why do you think this is the case? I think the first one formed the most precipitate because it was more concentrated and kinda had more chemical than the diluted ones.

DTE IDEASS

 For the last 6 weeks on DTE we have been learning a lot of stuff but out main thing we were working on was making a game using gamefroot.
