Steam Table Challenge

 

 hello bloggers, today we are doing steam we had the challenge to make a table with ten pieces of newspaper and 1 meter of sellotape we designed a box with riped paper inside the challenge was to hold a heavy book on your table. We held two books at our table. Some people held ten books and a laptop but i think we did fine. I think we should put more structure but overall it worked! We worked in teams of 5 so check out my team's blogs: Lily-piper Honey Tilly Ava

the voulume is 240 what are the sides!

 hello, bloggers today we have been doing volume in math we had been given a volume and figure out the sides to make that volume width times height times length we figured out 15 x 4 x4 is 240 so those were our sides! 

here is a photo!

we tried really hard to match our measurement we ended up with the perfect measurement however taping it was difficult. I worked with Mathew for the activity so check out his blog too! here is my friend honey and Flynn for comparison their measurements wee 3 8 10 however they got 2.5 instead of 3 but that's ok! go check their blogs to

Matariki

 Hello, bloggers in honor of Matariki nearly being here, we have been doing ink printing! Our stages were..  1. make a draft- when we made our drafts we had to draw mountains of our choice and make swirls around our Matariki. Make sure to draw the stars backward or else when we print they would be around the wrong way! 2. once done the draft we had to trace it on foam- this process is best when using a ballpoint pen, we got given one sheet of foam so we had to make sure we treated it like a baby very carefully! Then get your ink.3. Printing- ready! you get your foam checked off and on you go to printing using a paint roller we spread the ink onto our foam plate. using your colors of choice e.g green-black and blue-purple and orange-red and any of your choice. You then roll your colors on your foam plate. drawing your design in the foam makes indents which the ink cant get into, making then blank spots when you print. Part of this process is pressing your foam plate on a piece of card with your ink on it of course. Peel your foam off the paper and boom it's a pretty Matariki painting. WAIT don't leave yet once you have let it dry you make a frame using the stencil our teachers have made. on a sheet card then draw your outline rather you could say inline. After you sketch out your line we cut along the line you have drawn with a craft knife BE CAREFUL. Trim your painting and glue on your frame. And now you're done! good job let me know if you try this out!! 

Bye bloggers.

Science

 Hello, bloggers today we did another science class before tech! In our class, we were learning about the senses touch to be exact. In addition, we did a little test where we had a caliper we also had a sheet to list the body part on them. use the caliper to poke each body part within  5 mm by 10 mm 15 mm and 20 mm we had to list whether we felt two dots or one dots. I worked with Sophie and we even had to do our lip and foot We made sure to sanitize it through bye bloggers.
