Silly Stupid Super Oil Spills

Kia ora bloggers Oil is in and around our world, even in places you wouldn’t imagine. We use oil for cooking but we also use crude oil. The pumping and transporting of crude oil around the globe often have environmental effects. We have looked at various texts and videos to learn about some of these effects, and it ‘good’ timing as there was a recent oil spill (24 July 2020) in Mauritius that we could investigate.
Check out my video to learn more about oil, and see the simulation we did in class about cleaning oil from water.

 Have you learnt about oil?

Samoan Conversation

Kia ora bloggers but I will have to do a Samoan conversation animation, it was fun learning how to make a conversation with someone in Samoan, do you know how to say Hello in Samoan?              This is my animation Enjoy!   

Powerful Parachute

Kia Ora Bloggers we had to make a parachute for inquiry we had a group of Me Ankit and Ollie we made our parachute out of masking tape, string, newspaper, and for the weights we had metal nuts we decided to make a parachute large so therefore I would have more surface area to stay in the air longer.

You must launch a parachute from a directed height (the top of the stairs in the maker space), safely down to a controlled landing in a target area. The Slowest Descent Wins. 

we was going to add fabric on the bottom of our parachute but then we decided against that idea later on we had two other tests including our final test our first throw was 2.81 second then we decided to do it again and our next time was 3.21 seconds this was our final launch.

If I were to do this again I would spend more time working out a design. This is a picture of a parachute

have a great day blogger I'll see you next time thanks for checking in :)
