Sophia D and I Made some Chocolate Mush Cake
We Kinda Liked The Cake It Was Very Chocolatey and dry. Sophia Took Her's Out 10 secs earlier than me and it was a little bit better
Here is our google slide we made:
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

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.

I Will See You Next Time I PostTalofa Team,
Since the start of the year we have been learning Samoan. This is my virtual classroom where I have put all my learning for you to also learn from. If you hover over items in my classroom, a hyperlink will pop up for you to click on.
In my classroom you will learn about:
Samoa as a country
Link to a traditional dance video
Basic greetings
The alphabet
How to count 1-10
Information about Siapo - how it is created, some examples
An animation showing a simple conversation in Samoan

Wahoo We have been learning about how mentos make coke explode so I have a lot of information on the google slide so here it is :
I Will See You Next Time I Post

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:

On Wednesday when the morning group is at tech we did some Samoan. It was very fun to do, we had to make a animation on scratch or google slides I chose google slides. The task that we had to do was make a basic conversation in Samoan. I made a wonderful scratch of this task today and here it is :

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
