Hurumanu: Climate Change and the future

Aim; To look at the different ways we can prevent climate change in the future.

How is sea level rise going to effect us in NZ

What places will be effected?

new area for people to live .

how close the houses on the coastal areas like graymouth

people that can live in new area 

useing less fosil fuils and use electrick car or walk,bike our public transport.

What other places around NZ will be affected?

Tonga,Fiji,cook island and Samoa

people on the coastal area 

What does this do to our drinking water?

What are the main concerns?

there will be much more salt water in our fresh water sources that we drink form.

1. Use public transport.
2.  Electric car.
3.  Solar panels.

Curbing climate change

What is the one, silver bullet solution?

Nothing cause no scientist is going to figure out a way to get rid of climate change.

What is the mix of things we need to start doing?

1.   Solar heating.
2.   Renewable energy.
3.   Get rid of fossil fuel

What are 3 others you can think of?

1.   Walking.
2.    Biking.
3.    Reuse and recycle

our new kahui buildings

Ki ora
On Monday we got to see out new school building and we got to move into them as our new form class room. our class room is a moari name called Tikeke this name comes from a native bird and the other two class room and named after native birds ass well.

i felt pretty confused on what one was our class room because they all look the same. And even my teachers get confused on which  one is our class room as well. Maybe they should change the colours on the break out wall.

when i walked into our new building they looked cool but they were really identical like they were triplets I had seen our old furniture our new setting area our new break our new break out space were all our other supplies and tote trays that hold all of our gear. and the new science lab and the fake grass out front. and the teacher room that is up stirs.

MY BLOG

HELLO TODAY I AM GOING TO DO A BLOG ABOUT WHAT TYPE OF PROJECT THAT WE HAVE BEEN FOR THE PAST 8 WEEKS FOR ONE OF MY PROJECT WE DONE A KEY RING THAT WAS REALLY FUN THEN WE WENT ON TO MAE SOME VERY COOL PENS THEN NEXT I MADE A LIGHT WITH A CUSTOM IN PRINT WITH A TIKI AND A TANIWHA WITH MY NAME IN THE MIDDLE  AND I WAS THE FIRST STUDENT TO FINNISH ALL THESE PROJECT AND I REALLY HOPE YOU THAT YOU HAVE ENJOYED MY BLOG POST COMMENT IF I NEED TO MAKE SOME MORE IMPROVEMENTS THNK YOU. 

hurumanu greenhouse effect

AIM: TO LOOK AT CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT.

THE GREENHOUSE GASES EXPLAINED.

The Greenhouse Effect experiment

Materials

1. 1 plastic bottle
2. 1 Teaspoon Baking Soda and Citric Acid                                    
3. 1 heat lamp
4. 1 Thermometer
5. 100 ml water
6. 1 rubber bung 
7. 
   

Procedure

step 1 collect 2 bottles,2 lamp and 2 thermometers from the teacher.

step 2 set up bottles and lamps beside a power point on a flat surface

step 3 pour 100ml water and baking soda mixture into one of the bottles

step 4 start to record your findings taken from both thermometers these must be every five minutes. 

1. Add 100 mL of water to each of the beakers.
2. Prepare your lamps. Set them up next to each other with the necks angled so they will just fit over the tops of the bottles. Turn them on so they are ready.
3. Add Baking Soda mix to one of the beakers, and immediately cover both beakers with cling a rubber bung and thermometer. A tight seal around the edge will work best, and make sure thermometers are left visible so you can record the temperature.
4. Have students record the starting temperature – it should be the same in both beakers.
5. Turn the bottles so the thermometer is visible.                             
6. Record the temperature in both beakers every 5 minutes for 45 minutes or until the temperatures stabilize. At the end, have students answer questions at the bottom of their data sheets. 

Findings:The Greenhouse Effect Data 

Minutes	Bottle 1: Water	Bottle 2: CO2 Gas
0	21	21
5	25	20
10	24	19
15	24	21
20	24	22
25	25	23

Conclusion: have fun doing this experimenter and send me a comment on how it went  

hurumanu water cycle

hello
this is our topic for today here are what forms climate change in our world to day
These are parts of climate change. Hurricanes and acid rain, Also precipitation evaporation condensation are all forming climate change in our world. and that make climate change n the world

here is our poster about the water  cycle and can form climate change in our world

how they work

 acid rain form: evaporation is when the sun vaporises the water up in the sky the it forms into a cloud the when fertilser, and toxic  company burn and pollute the air then when it rain the water goes through the polluted air and make acid rain. and that make climate change in the world.

   

Maths blog / DLO

Hello today I am going to show what we have been up to this to term. I'm going to tell you what my favourite activity was,what I have learnt,what was one of my challenges that I faced, and what is my goal.

One of my favourite activity was doing page 101 in red book. And what I mostly loved doing was the mathletics booklets they were the most fun ist because I got to learn more strategy that could help me in the future.

I learnt more strategy that helped more when I got stuck on question and that was one of my challenges that I faced when it came to a question that I did not know. And I think that really good because it could help me when I get higher in the school.

My goal: my goal for maths is that I want to learn my 7 times table, my 6 times table and more I think this really good goal because it can help me when I come to a Times tabel question with one of these numbers.

Challenge I faced  the challenged I face was the before we got put on serdent table I found it really hard to work beacuse I got distracted to easy but I did get some work done and my other challenges was that when I came a cross a question that I did not know and when I ask they did not know beacuse I wanted learn this question beacuse it might help me with a question higher up in the school.

My song

Hi today I am going to share with you my song I hope you enjoy

Hello my name is cream cheese 2109

I like to play a game named  mincraft
You an build and you can kill
 but first you need to name your sever

But sadly I am a noob

Then chose out of saviour
 or you can chose creative
then you level up skills
And you can get your Dimond armour
then you fight mods

But sadly I am a noob

Did I find it hard? I did find this hard beacause I came up with a few song and but they did not make sense or I could not digger out other words.

Maths

For the past couple of days we have been solving a maths problem.

We had to use some strategy  to find out the answer

What was the question? We had to find out the answer. To 273 worms and how many sea gulls we can feed in one sitting.

How was it working in a group? Working in a group is easy but it you do run in some complacion like people talking over you and just simple stuff like that but then the group learns and then we can get a long. But at the end of the day I think our group was awesome.

What  I found challenging.
I found the question challenging because I felt like that I was not at that stage of trying to figure out the three questions.

What strategy we used? We use times table / multiplication

DLO Maths

L.O  use the colum method for additions question up to 3 didgits.

 Exsample:1                                                      
Add the ones fist
Then put your answer in underneath the question line
Then carry the one to the tens colum
Next if you get a question like this  45+18 add the one then you carry over from the one colum on to the 10s collum.

                                                                 Example question/medium

                                                                                  700
                                                                                 +
                                                                                   330
                                                                                 
                                                                 Answers   1030

                       I hope that you learnt a trick on two and hope this can help you if you are having trouble with this type of maths work please leave a comment tell me if I have made a mistake.
