The Springbok Tour Protests

 So back in the day NZ and South Africa liked playing rugby but then racisicim happend and thats how apartheid which another name for it is apartness and when that happend SA came to NZ again and then tried to watch some rugby at the stadiums but the police came to stop them from coming in so the South Africans wore helmets to protect themselves from the special police batons and not long after the maori all blacks where called honorary whites which upset them because of how all blacks that wern't maori got to go to SA to verse them in rugby because apparently maori were supposed to repesent NZ for rugby overseas but the rugby union said nah will send the non maori and then after that the hamaltion rugby game was cancelled due to hundrads of anti protesters occupiing the field i think due to all this protesting i think it all went well now that all people different can be also respected and i think that this protest helped for nelson mandella to become the new president of SA which means he got out of jail after all he did and was the first black president of SA

 Climate change is a lie I don't think so because it is already proven that Climate change is real if you don't believe me Check this out. Scientists know that the atmosphere the air we breathe in is warming up with Carbon dioxide As the air gets more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, the trees can't take in that much. With more trees dying, that carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is growing faster. People are making it worse because people are wanting more land making the trees either turn to paper or to wooden planks. This is called deforestation and it's happening right now. The oceans will rise because Antarctica is melting, making coastlines sink here's why as the air gets warmer and more trees and plants that make oxygen die the ice caps on antarctica or on the north pole will start melting

 

Prime minister

 for social studies we have been working on politics and what we would do if we were prime minister so my in my group was Sam Elias and Isaiah our group was named mufti party because we said to get rid of uniform kai time now by that i mean there will be still kai time just you won't have to wait in class you can just get the food and then leave to interval and the reasons we think this is because. 

it makes us late

it's expensive 

we can leave early on certain days 

some classes are longer such as P.E

and some classes are shorter such as maths

and that is some of our reasons why we chose these in the first place 

Journey of heat Chemistry

 what we have been doing in science is experiments and test like a dried ice experiment pomegranate crystal experiment and other experiments but we have been learning more about heat

conduction- conduction is when heat moves into a cold space

convention- convention is when a light material rise up like the purple liquid in the potassium pomegranate crystal

contraction- contraction is where something squeezes making it contract and tighten

expansion-expansion is when something grows bigger or becomes bigger much like the how the universe began  

one of the experiments we did was to fill a can with cold water and then heat it up above a Bunsen burner and wait for the water in the can to boil up and when the can smokes up then we quickly had to tip the can upside down and put it into an ice cream container filled with cold water and then watched the can as it contacted or squeezed tightly cause of the cold water how the particles reacted to the experiment 

Summary Blog Post on Digitech

so far my group and i has created a plan of our app design. We are do the app sett up on google slides and planning how the app is going to be like when it's created.

our  group has a grid that we write about where we are up to and who's doing what. Tevita is the quiz designer on what you know on sea life for all ages hrishaal is in charge of info for the app and the sea life jrae codes the app which means he has to code all of the things that Isaiah Hrishaal and Tevita write down and then he puts it into the app and then finally Isaiah has to gather all of the sea life info and pictures to show who is who and now i'll share a few facts about them 

so once the group finished with the reaserch jrae will start coding all the stuff and then the app should be finished and everyone is done 

here are our work in DTE

DIRTY WATER SCIENCE

Aim: To make dirty water

Method:

2. add 2 spoonful of dirt.
3. add 10 ml of oil.
4. add spoonful of pebbles.

Results:  

Discussion:

in this science experiment we are using solid things to mix with liquid like water now there are special words that can describe the solid things and the liquid things there science names are solute which is the solid and the solvent is the liquid dissolving is when solute becomes solvent and the solution is when they mix perfect now dilute means when there is to much water and not enough solute and concentration is when it's a balanced taste now filtrate is when solvent is passed through a filter and all of these is what we have used in the dirty water experiment.

Conclusion:

did it work yes it did the water is clean and it good enough to drink and if you ask would i change anything i have no changes.

SCIENCE

well you see The oesophagus is a muscular tube about 25cm long with a sphincter which means A (sphincter is a circular muscle that normally maintains constriction of a natural body passage or orifice and which relaxes as required by normal physiological functioning. Sphincters are found in many animals) value at each end its function is to transport food and fluid after being swallowed from the mouth to the stomach no absorption of nutrients takes place in the oesophagus and well you see that is what an oesophagus but there is something better than that and it is a 

stomach a stomach's job is The stomach has 3 main functions temporary storage for food which passes from the esophagus to the stomach where it is held for 2 hours or longer mixing and breakdown of food by contraction and relaxation of the muscle layers in the stomach digestion of food and that is the reason for our know we have to the liver and the liver is 

the Function of the liver the liver regulates most chemical levels in the blood and excretes a product called bile this helps carry away waste products from the liver all the blood leaving the stomach and intestines passes through the liver

Learning Reflection

 Question - A conclusion on what the Whare tapa wha is and how it illustrates Hauora
