Music

Last week in music we went to the music sweet in HHS there was Guitar's, Drum's,Piano's and Keyboard's. We got to play all of them. With the key board we had to play Havana. Here is a photo with me and the electric guitar

The great escape

Part of writing we have to write 150 word's. So I am going to post 1 chapter with 150 word's

Chapter 1
I was ready, I got in my Blocart, pulled the rope. As I exited the driveway I saw cop’s. I decided to pull the rope real hard. I went on 2 wheel’s round the bend. I saw the light’s turn on. As I got further away the cop’s kept catching up. I got a good distance away so I ducked into a bush and got out. As I got out I saw the cop’s they were right behind me. I thought, “I am not going to be able to get my cart out of here” so I ran and found a guy ready to leave on his motorbike. I pushed him off and rode off. The cop’s were still behind me. I thought “I can’t get away” I pulled the throttle as hard as I could and I was off. I got as far away as I could

Tech

In tech in the past 3 week's we have been making pens. The design of my pen was a guitar with my name and ford motor co on the bottom. It took me a lot of try's to get it right but in the end I got it as good as I could. I used the green for it. I think what I could do better is sanding it down better and the thing I think I was good at was deigning the pen on laser works. To cut it we used the laser cutter at our school. Then I used the buffer to buff the edges and make it look nice. We had to use 3 pieces of materials and glue them together. I had to restart 3 times because the middle piece that had the slot for the pen ether broke and was not big enough

Music

In music we lern about decads

Instrumental Industries

This is my slide from music. Hope you like it

Left alone

They were gone, I don't know when they left but they must’ve forgotten me. How, How did they forget me?. I walked around a little… Out of the side of my eye I saw somebody. I walked over to them , they ran. They were not fast, I caught up to them in no time. I tackled the person. They were wearing a mask. I pulled it off and it was a boy from the other tribe. He had a harakeke bag with food and water gallons. I told him what happend and he said he will help me. But there was a twist, He said “ I'll help if you give me supplies.” I said “ ok” We got wood and started to build a waka. We were using flax to hold it togather. We got to the point Where we were done. I gave him the supplies.Then I set sail

Wind power

Wind speed - Making an anemometer.

MATERIALS: 

1. Pins 
2. 4 cups
3. Pencils  
4. 4 straws
5. Tape  

STEPS

1.   Put 2 holes in each cup 
2.   Put your straws in a cross 
3.  Tape the cross of straws together (go around with tape 3 times) 
4.    Then pin them done in the pencil with a rubber in it 
5. Then put the cups and straws together  

 Once you have made an anemometer we are going to record the wind speed.

Group size: 4

You will need:

Anemometer (over) 

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 timekeeper 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.
4. 
   

Waste

Hurumanu - Recycling

Aim: To learn practical ways of recycling so that we can make our world a better place.

The Zero Waste Climate Solution movie

How can we prevent climate change though recycling these products?

Plastics: Clutters the world
Cycling or walking: No more gas 
Paper: Less trees getting cut down
Steel: More waste gone

Video questions:

What is Zero Waste? One of the cheapest and quickest ways a community can immediately reduces climate impact

What can we do on the planet?

1.   Re-deign way to send things my reducing materials
2.   Re-duse use in our life styles etc: fix things,Share

What do we need to recycle? Put old food scraps in soil

What does recycling do?Wastes materials

How much of our rubbish is food scraps?90,000 tones for Auckland peoples

What does soil do to carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?

When a plant dies it make a type of soil carbon dioxide

What do we need to do?

1. Have Zero waste

What is a carbon footprint?

How can you make your Carbon Footprint smaller?

ENERGY SAVING TIPS FILM

Name some of the tips.

1. put food scraps in soil  
2.   Don't use as much plastic as we do

AT WHAT RATES DO DIFFERENT ITEMS DECOMPOSE?

MY INVESTIGATION.

Name: Jackson

1. How long do they take to decompose?
2. What resource / fossil fuel are they made from?
3. How is this resource recycled?
4. How does this object contribute to climate change

Styrafoam

1.Never

2.Cant be

3.nope

4.It never goes so i stay for ever

Water cycle

Findings:

	The Water Cycle: Bag 1	CO2 Water Cycle: Bag 2 Acid	Desert Water Cycle Bag 3
Does it cycle?	Yes	Yes	Yes
Amount of Water	2 Cups	2 Cups	1 cup
Acidity	1	2	1

Other comments:

Conclusion:

We found out the the all cycled and only 1 had acidity

Draw a labelled diagram of the Water Cycle

Water cycle words:

1. Precipitation = The weather
2. Hurricanes = When clouds from thunder
3. Storms = When the clouds release a lots and lots of water
4. Evaporation = When the cloud suck up the mist of water
5. Carbon Dioxide = Gas that comes out of cars and us
6. Water = Water is stuff in the sea, our cups, Bath, showers
7. Oceans = It is a bit of the world with water
8. Water vapour = Is when the water turns to mist
9. Freshwater = Water that we drink
10. Flooding = When the water come higher than the sea level it floods the place

Island story

One day I was out at sea on my way to a island.I was not far away from the island and my boat capsized. All my fresh water and my food was gone. I felt like I was not going to get there. I might die. I started to swim for a bit and then I saw a piece of wood floating in the water. I grabbed it and tried to get on. I got on with a little bit of struggle. I started to roll a bit but I got the hang of it. I floated on that for a day. But night started to fall and It was getting dark. I was getting tired So I layed back and Went to sleep. After a little bit the log flung form under me and I went back in the water. I thought to myself I was secured, The waves where getting bigger and I was too tired to swim. But out of the corner of my eye I seen A tiny Island. I floated over to it and Fell asleep on the soft sand. ZZZzzzz, When I woke up I had a look around and seen a shipwreck. I still had the engine and a winch and some wood. So I gathered everything up and started to build a boat. It started with striping the wood for nails and then making a form of a boat. I started with filling the frame in and I ran out of wood. But I have also seen the piece of wood I floated on. So I Got a sharp rock and filled the rest to the boat in. I put the winch to use and put the Engine on the boat. I was ready to go I got in my homemade boat Or should I say Island made boat and started to set sail. I was out at sea for 5 days and the boat ran out of gas. I Pushed the Engine off and floated to safety. When I got to the island 7 days later I went to the closed restaurant and eat $400 worth of wood and water. The end
