My Mashup

Kia Ora bloggers, this week was the start of the new term this is my mashup.
For literacy, we made a science experiment with aspirin we had a crushed pill and a normal pill and we had to make a hypothesis of which pill we thought would dissolve quicker I chose the crushed pill and I was right this is the slide we worked on.


For our inquiry, we got told to do a worksheet about space there were 9 challenges and we had to get three in a row like noughts and crosses here are the challenges in case you want to do one. Thanks for checking in and have a good day! :)

QR code scavenger hunt with QR codes:
 The Solar System

Research the conditions on Mars and create a list of 10 materials/tools that you will attempt to bring with you on a mission to Mars.  Give each material/tool its own slide and explain why it needs to be brought to Mars.
Create an information poster that covers all the main points about the moon landing.  You will need to cover information such as astronauts, dates, time, information about the journey, what they did when they landed, what they took back with them, equipment etc
Research and create a presentation on how Astronauts do simple things while in space e.g. wash their hair. You would need to cover at least 4 different things.

The Southern Lights

Kia ora bloggers.
Today we were learning about the southern lights we did an art piece of the southern lights this is my one.

The southern lights occur when electrically charged particles from the sun hits the atmosphere then atoms in the Earth's atmosphere collide with gases like oxygen and nitrogen, making those gases to emit light.
The southern lights are called "aurora australis" And the northern lights are called "aurora borealis" The northern lights are on my bucket list to see because they are just stunning, do you want to see the southern lights? Thanks for checking in on my blog, and have a great holiday! :D
