Debate

 Kia ora, bonjour, Hola, Guten Tag, Konnichiwa, Nǐn hǎo, Salve and Zdravstvuyte 

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. 

Forensics

 

Kia ora, bonjour, Hola, Guten Tag, Konnichiwa, Nǐn hǎo, Salve and Zdravstvuyte 

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.

 

Forensic Science

 Kia ora, bonjour, Hola, Guten Tag, Konnichiwa, Nǐn hǎo, Salve and Zdravstvuyte 

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.

Drama

 Kia ora, bonjour, Hola, Guten Tag, Konnichiwa, Nǐn hǎo, Salve and Zdravstvuyte 

So in Drama, we are doing solo scripts and we have to break them down.

Who am I?

I am one of the lost boys 

 

Where am I?

I am in neverland 

 

What time is it?

Around the start of the day 

 

What do I want?

Make peter pan happy

 

Why do I want it?

Because peter pan saved me from ageing

 

How will I get what I want?

I will have to be patient 

 

What must I overcome to get what I want?

I have to overcome killing someone

English

 Kia ora, bonjour, Hola, Guten Tag, Konnichiwa, Nǐn hǎo, Salve and Zdravstvuyte 

So in English, we did a Meaning Match and we had to match the words to their right meaning I didn't get them all right, we are making them into sentences. 

Anarchy: He had found their idea of liberty to be anarchy, their native policy to be slavery, and their republic to be a sham.

Diverse: The opinions of the two factions are diverse

Jeopardy: The criminal trial system would be placed in jeopardy.

Stratum: It was an enormous task that affected every stratum of society 

Substantive: Having a firm basis in reality and so important, meaningful, or considerable.

Science/Maths report

 Kia ora, bonjour, Hola, Guten Tag, Konnichiwa, Nǐn hǎo, Salve and Zdravstvuyte 

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. 

Health- Five Second Rule

 

Kia ora, bonjour, Hola, Guten Tag, Konnichiwa, Nǐn hǎo, Salve and Zdravstvuyte 

So in health, we finished our game, our game is the five-second rule game. The Topic we were doing was about vaping and, the game was about questions about vaping and what you should, do to a vape, and what happens if you actually vape. Firstly we had to decide on which of the Big six questions were going to do to help with our game. Our question was, When and Why did Vaping become an issue in New Zealand? The purpose of our game was to teach people about vaping. From there we decided on our game and came up with questions for the game. We choose to create this game because we thought it would be fun to play with friends and family. We learnt that these strategies are helpful to use if, you are working in a group. It was challenging when we had to find/ reword the rules because some of the rules didn’t make sense. I coped with the challenge by asking my teammates for help. Next time I will talk more with my group. Im was really proud of how the board turned out.
