So in Forensics, we have been working on making our own little crime scene, it was so much fun I might even do it at home, here is a slide show more about our little crime scene. It took up most of this term. We had to share and that would have to be my less favourite part because I don't like public speaking very much other than that I had fun.

So in wga, we had to read a story about why people get paid more
1. Explain in a paragraph why others get higher pay.
Some people get higher pay because they are higher up in the job like they got a promotion or they have been in the job for a while. Another reason why they might have higher pay is that they do a job that pays more for example a surgeon, reason why is because they could put more effort into the job because they want the job to be done perfectly and not done sloppy or really fast.
2. Say what Adam Smith realized about making money.
He realised that there are two things you have to keep in mind, what you are really good at and what you think other people want, you also have to remember that there are also many jobs out there that don't pay much but are also still really important.
3. At this point in your life, What kind of job do you think you would like to have? Why?
At this point in my life, I would like to be a doctor, I'm not quite sure what type yet but ever since I was younger I have wanted to be a doctor, I don't really have a big reason but I just like the fact of helping people

So in Debating, we have been working on how to debate and debate with different groups. My thoughts on this are good because we are learning to use our voices for good. It was fun because I got to state an option, and not be judged for it. I found it challenging when I had to come up with ideas about a statement that I didn’t believe in.

So in Science Forensics, and we are doing Foot Print Analysis.
We had three shoes to decide what one is which. The shoes had heaps of similarities because they were the same brand of shoe but you could still tell which one is which because some of them were worn on the bottom. Most of them had a normal arch, there are three different types of an arch, low arch, Normal arch, and high arch. There are heaps of different bottoms of each shoe.

So in the new hurumanu classes, we are writing about the subject here is what we are learning about.
Nici’s Paragraph Who are forensic scientists? What does a forensic scientist do?
Forensic science is something that helped people find out what happened at a murder site or a robbery (Any crime basically.) Some reasons why we need it is because if we didn't have it we would never know what happened, or who killed someone or how something happened. Another reason why we need it is that without it you wouldn't have an idea of how to solve murders. Forensics Scientists are someone that solves murders or any crime. They are like a detective but does other things than ask questions about the murder.
Nevaeh’s Paragraph: What types of evidence do they collect from crime scenes?
The evidence they collect is very important to the whole crime scene. They could collect almost anything from a crime scene, I learnt this in class, the evidence that can be collected are weapons, fibres, cells, CCTV, DNA ect. They can analyse substances such as glass, paint, fire debris and fibres which can provide crucial evidence in a case. This kind of non-biological evidence can provide vital links between the victim, suspect and crime scene.
Hayley Paragraph: What is genetic profiling?
Information about specific genes, including variations and gene expression, in an individual or in a certain type of tissue. A genetic profile may be used to help diagnose a disease or learn how the disease may progress or respond to treatment with drugs or radiation.
Candesse Paragraph: What are some of the jobs?
Visit crime scenes to find evidence.
take notes and map the crime scene
To analyse physical evidence such as fibres, glass, debris, firearms, bullets and marks made by tools or weapons.
Identify drugs found on people, in body fluids or at crime scenes.

So in Maths and Science, we have been learning about Ohm’s law and area.
Aim: To put together some of the ideas we had learnt
Method: The house plan I picked was house "A" and I had 5 bulbs. Below is a photo of my work.
Result: the results of my ohm's law working out is this:
Discussion: The term voltage means: a force difference expressed in volts, the volts on my house plan were 200 on my first path and 100 on my second two paths. The term Current means how quickly the electrons move around a circuit, the current on my house is 16.4 on the battery path, path one is 8a and the bottom two paths are 4a. The Term resistance means it pushes back against the current. I did the Calculations by using the ammeter and voltmeter. My calculation's tell me about my house plan and my circuit because they show me that the light bulbs in houses are the same as a circuit online or someone who drew it. The calculation's make sense to me.
Conclusion: I enjoyed this activity at the start it was a little bit confusing to me but then I got the hang of it. If I were to do it again it would do something different like I would do a different house plan or I would do a different amount of light bulbs.

So in English, we are working on our punctuation to make sure we are ready for year ten. To make sure we are using the right punctuation in our writing. We got put into groups and we had to learn about the punctuation we had been given, the groups are Ampersand, Ellipsis, and Semicolon. We had to fix the sentences with the proper punctuation, here are the sentences.
Unfixed ones:
“You are looking in the wrong direction” said the detective.
His favorite old television shows are “I love Lucy” “Batman” and “Bonanza”
“If you want to go outside” said Mrs Clark “you must wear your raincoats”
“Yes, it’s an important clue” replied Vance “But more important is the time of the call”
“Rarely” the doctor observed “has anyone survived such a fall”
At camp we sang “Daisy, Daisy” Oh! Susannah” and “Skip to My Lou.”
My Favourite “Christmas carol is Silent Night

So in Science, we dissected an eye.
Parts of the eye:
Cornea: The protective area of the eye
Pupil: The area where light enters the eye
Iris: Where it controls how much light goes into the eye
Lens: It focuses the light into the Retna
Retna: Converts the light into electrical energy
Optic Nerve: Carries the electrical energy to the brain
Humorous: Liquid mash in the middle of the eye that gives its shape
What we did and how we did it.
We had to cut off all of the fat attached to the eye, then we had to cut open the eye (the Cornea and Sclera.) to open to see inside the eye. After the eye was open we saw the Iris and the pupil, which is behind the lens. We had to split/cut the eyeball in half and avoid the Optic Nerve and remove the Retina layer.
I didn’t enjoy it too much because I was afraid it was gonna squirt all over me. I found it interesting that it bleeds out black, I didn’t really know what I was suspecting honestly. But when we cut open the eye it wasn't as easy as I thought it was gonna be easy to cut through but it was really difficult because we didn't wanna get it everywhere.

So in English, we have another Do now task and this one is about Langosta.
Why would the Langosta be useful on the Cay, it would be useful because it would be a good food source
What were the survival skill the langosta used, well it was buried in the sand so it couldn’t be spotted as easily, it probability ate whatever went past it or travelled a little bit, to where they couldn’t be seen. It would also need to hide close to the water so it can escape or not get dehydrated and cook in the sun if it is a hot day.

So in English, it's another do now task this one is about Hurricanes.
Hurricanes form from water rising and evaporating and once high enough it will cool down and turn into rain droplets and become clouds.
Hurricanes are most likely to form in tropical areas where the water is 80℉.
Hurricanes Highest peak is in September.
Curacao tends to be warmer than usual on the island during hurricane season.
Why do I think this relates to our Cay reading?
I think it is because Willmstade has water all around it, also where Timothy and Phillip are they might see a hurricane or one might hit where they are.
