Experimenting with Ultraviolet light

L.I: To find the most effective UV filter.

LS2 has been trialling the electronic sensors for the Kiwrious project. We are working with Suranga, Sonia, Evan, Dawn and Yvonne from the AHL at Auckland University. I found that craft paper was the most effective filter to keep Zally safe from the UV light. My DLO will show you how I did this.

Maths Strategy

L.I: To find the most efficient strategy to answer the question.

This DLO shows how Liletina, Juel and I worked together to get this task done. This DLO also shows how you can find the quickest way to get the answer for the 9 time tables.This   We also use different strategies to get the answer.  

Lightning Storm

L.I: To use 5- 7- 10 to write creatively. 

Lightning Storm

That was the question that occupied their frightened minds as they crouched, huddling together, next the pile of dusty sacks in the base of the windmill where they were forbidden to be crossed. As Drew and Jack were in the windmill they saw the rage of lightning strike across the sky and were frightened causing them to spend more time in the windmill. The windmill wasn’t the safest place that Drew and Jack could find shelter. Crouching in the windmill, frightened to be struck by lightning. 

That Night Continuing……

Drew and Jack had spent the night in the windmill because the lightning was starting to spread across the sky causing it to be very unsafe. Waiting for the lightning to stop as Drew and Jack frighteningly jumped in the air after hearing a thunder roar as loud as a lion. 

The Following Day……

The next morning the lightning had finally stopped. Drew and Jack were finally safe to be outside, they didn’t have to stay in the windmill anymore.

Today  Suila ,Fau and I used the 5-7-10 challenge to help us with our writing skills. We could choose any sentence starter from the list and write about anything we liked.

Food Technology

L.I: To make pizza.

Today at food tech we followed the recipe to make a beef and BBQ scrumptious pizza. For our vegetables we used 1 onion, 1 carrot and 4 mushrooms. First we cut the onion so that we could fry it. Second we started to spread our sauce on the pizza bread and then we added all our veggies on the bread as well. After we finished adding all our ingredients we put BBQ sauce on and then Mrs Heka put our food in the oven. After 10 minutes of waiting we finally got to see the final results and it did not look so well as me and my buddy thought but it was so DELICIOUS!!!.

Matariki Venn Diagram

L.I: To compare the contrast.

In this Venn Diagram it shows how people used to celebrate matariki, how people celebrate matariki now and how do now and then do the same thing. I worked with Hosea and Liletina as a group and we found information about what people do on matariki now days. As we created this I learned some new interesting facts about matariki such as maori people make things out of flax like kites.
