Movie Review On Home Alone

 Kia Ora Team 

For Inquiry, we had a table and we could pick what task we wanted to do I picked to write a movie review and I picked the movie Home Alone 

Here is my review :D

Home Alone is an awesome movie. It is one of my top favorite movies released ever!

Out of 10, I would for sure rate it a 10 out of 10 it is just too amazing to be true. The main character Kevin

has been in two of the movies out of the four of the home alone movies there are on Disney+.

Home alone is not on Netflix it is only on Disney+ and you can download it too. Kevin the original

character in the movie Home alone and home alone 2 is now 40 years old and he was 8 years old when

the movie was being filmed in 1990 between February and May.  Home alone has two burglars named Harry and Marv.

I hope you like my Movie review 

If you have not watched the movie do you have any questions that I can answer just comment them I will answer as fast as possible.

I am going to tell you about my EPIC holidays.

In the first week it was kinda boring I had a sleepover with my BEST FRIEND Sophia D on Tuesday night of the first week and went swimming because I had swimming lessons and when we were at QEll we saw our other friend Valley and we hang out with her at the pool. I then had a boring rest of the week until Friday came My family and I all went to our bach in Akaroa and spent 2 nights there, Here is what Akaroa looks like:

The big bad wolf?

 In Yellowstone wolves are perfect for the environment, they have helped the environment by making a bigger population of animals in the area like 

otters and song Birds. 

In France, wolves are very terribly vicious and frightening, and not a lot of people like them.

I love them and I feel like should not be treated the way they are!

Who's side are you on?

Ice Scientific Report

Wondering: I know that salt eats away at ice quick but can any other substance do the same?.

Hypothesis: I think Sugar will eat away at the ice the quickest.

Materials: Salt, Baking soda, Citric acid, Sand, Sugar, Containers, Ice, Measuring Spoons, Flat Surface, Timer, Measuring Cup. 

Variables:

Controlled: The amount, Temperature, Size, Timing, 

Independent: We changed the liquid to powder

Dependent: What we observe - Powder, Ice, Time 

Procedure: 

Pour ½ a cup of water into the containers that you are going to use for the experiment

Freeze the ice overnight  

Kia Ora Team

This is my ice scientific report

Measure and pour ¼ of a cup of each power into a seperate bowl each with the ice in the bowls.

Pour the powders onto the ice containers at the same time, while you pour the powder onto the ice, spread it around the ice so that it speeds up the process of the powders eating away at the ice.

As soon as the powders hit the ice start timing and observe the process

Results/Observations:

The citric acid, Baking powder and sugar are mixing threw into the ice 

The sugar looks like it is turning into liquid but the salt is observing the ice 

The sand might possibly come last because it is doing nothing to the ice

The citric acid looks like a slushie 

The sugar has a platform of ice on top 

There are some air bubbles in the ice on the citric acid 

The salt came first with 1h:14m 

Conclusion:

The salt interferes with the salt and makes crystals and mixies with the water that has already melted with heat and speeds up the process. My hypothesis ( I think Sugar will eat away at the ice the quickest )  proved me wrong and the salt melted the Ice the  quickest. A real life situation where you can use Salt is during winter when your concrete path or steps just sprinkle salt on the ice to melt it so your steps or path aren’t slippery.

All About Oil Spills

 Kia Ora Team 

Some ways to clean up oil are using absorbers such as hay, straw, booms,  and hair.  The boom contains the absorbent and is used straight away to try to limit the spread of the oil. 

Some other ways to clean up oil are burning the oil in situ. However, the smoke can also have an impact on the environment.  Dispersants can also be used.  Dispersants speed up the process of breaking down the oil and this then goes into the water.

We simulated this by using vegetable oil in water, with food colouring to simulate the chemicals in the oil that we tried to clean up with cotton as our boom, and materials such as tissue paper and kitchen roll for absorbers. We then use dishwashing liquid to simulate the dispersant.

What we noticed was that the dishwashing liquid (dispersant), broke up the oil, but it was much more difficult to contain. Here is my video of my adobe spark that I made:

Has you city ever had a oil spill ?

3..2...1... BLAST OFF!!

 Kia Ora Team

It is Tayla 

It has been really fun today we made some parachutes. I made mine with my 1 of my best friends Sophia/Phia. 

I am really happy with the time it took our parachute to drop for upstairs it took 2.89. Sophia and I were in the lead for about 15m but then we got out beaten:C  

We are happy with the time because it is better than our first parachute, Our first parachute too 0.93 so it is way better than our first one.

During this parachute making challenge we made 2 parachutes and we REALLY liked our second one way better than the first one we made. 

Sophia broke and ripped our first one because she forgot that we need a photo of it so I am sorry I have no photo of our first one. Sophia and I made a google slide about our parachute making so here it is:

WE CAME 2nd YAY

I hope that you enjoy watching our slide. 

Would you try this challenge?

If you do can you pretty please comment on this post with a link of your blog so I can see you parachute slide or photos

Southern Lights

Kia Ora Team 

The Southern Lights are some very pretty lights that look like this: 

How this happens is the light comes off the sun so fast you could not even blink it is unbelievable. what happens with the light that comes off the sun is very HOT and you could burn yourself of 1 second of touching the Southern Lights. Today we made a art piece with black paper and goose paper we ripped out the shape we want and then the fun part was flicking white dots onto the paper......after the paint dried  we got chalk and smudged the colours. The last thing I had to do was get a pastel yellow paint and paint the stars of Matariki so when I finshed that I left it to dry.

In maths we have been learning about Algebra and figuring out patterns so today we made our own patterns on our Chromebooks and then post it on our blogs for you guys to see 

I made this pattern with 2 of my friends Sophia and Emmelia 

Here is my DLO of the pattern we made 

During this week and learning Algebra I think I have learnt a lot. I am really happy on how our pattern turned out if I could I would do more of the pattern. when making this we used our devices and it was really easy to do because we got shapes and made this really cool pattern. 

Have you ever done this before?

Cicadas

Kia ora bloggers,

When reading a book, have you ever been curious about something you were reading, and wanted to find out more to help you understand what you were reading better?  We have been learning about how important this is this week in Literacy.

When we read The Magic School Bus inside the human body’ I formed some advanced questions using ‘how’ and ‘why’.  I made sure they were open ended questions that would help me understand the book more.  An example of one of my questions was “Why are intestines coiled up?’ and I then researched and found out that an adults intestine is 7.5m long, so it needs to coil up so that it fits in the body.

Next we got to chose our own book to read out of our virtual library and we had to form 3 advanced questions about it.  Our create task this week was to share these in a creative way.  I chose to do it with Renderforest and it was about a book called ‘Cicadas’

I really enjoyed this task as it made me realise how important it is to do this when reading to understand the text better.

Do you ever do further research when you are reading a book to deepen your understanding?

MATHS 

This week for maths we have been doing angles so we put angles in a house and we also made our own robots and then we put the angles in the angles inside the shapes. 

Literacy 

In Literacy we are getting fairy tails and fracturing them. I chose to fracture Jack and The Bean Stalk. It is now called Jade And The Ladder 

This is my original and fractured

Binary

I love binary it is fun to figure out because it is like a riddle that you have to figure out. On Wednesday we got our Antilles and figure out the code for it. After that we had to pick a colour for the 0 and one for the l and lastly one for the space.

The way that you figure this out is 

1.Get your Antilles

2. Then get the number that goes with the letter for Example A1 B2 C3 Like that 

3.make a chart that looks like this 64 32 16 8 4 2 1 

4.then the number that equals with the number with you letter 

5. with the numbers you dont use that makes a 0 the numbers you do use is l 

6. You should end up with something that looks like this ll0llll00 but it will be a different code
