Solar-Powered Oven

Aim: To make a solar-powered oven.

Materials: 

1.   Pizza box.
2.   Scissors.
3.   Tape.
4.   Ruler.
5.   Tinfoil
6.   Gladerap.
7.   Sticks.
8.   Black plastic.
9.   Vivid.
10.   Newspaper.

Steps:
  

1. Draw a rectangle on the pizza box lid using a vivid and a ruler.
2. Get a pair of scissors and cut out where you marked the lines.  
3. Cut off some plastic wrap as wide as the rectangle you cut out in the pizza box.  
4. Put the plastic wrap against the pizza box lid where you cut out and tape it down and make sure it's nice and tight. 
5. Then Put tinfoil around that flappy part of the box.
6.  Put black plastic in the box where the pizza goes and on the sides too.
7. Now put food in there and put it somewhere in the sun then use the stick to hold up the flappy part. 

Conclusion:
The reason we couldn't do the experiment was that there wasn't much sun on the day we did it because it was raining because the main thing you need is the sun to heat up.

Investigation

Aim: To make a presentation that investigates different renewable energy.

Section 1: Title Page

Make a title page that incorporates all renewable energy 's Hydro, Solar, Wind, and Wave.

Section 2: Definitions

Define and provide a picture of each energy type.

1. Hydro Energy
2. Solar Energy
3. Wind Energy 
4. Wave Energy

Section 3; Investigate each of the 4 Energy Types.
(Hydro, Solar, Wind, Wave ) 

1. Type: Hydro
2. Is it used in NZ? Yes
3. Other Countries that use it? Over more than 150
4. How is it used to generate electricity? Hydropower plants capture the energy from falling water into a mechanical energy machine.
5. Draw and label a diagram of the main parts of the electricity generator? This can be done on paper and uploaded or on a drawing program on your device. I do not want any Internet images or pictures. They must be hand-drawn using a ruler and labeled.

1. Type: Solar
2. Is it used in NZ? Yes
3. Other Countries that use it? Other Countries that use it?Germany, Spain, Italy, Japan, the United States, and Czechia. 
4. How is it used to generate electricity? Solar panels convert the sun's rays into electricity that we can use.
5. Draw and label a diagram of the main parts of the electricity generator? This can be done on paper and uploaded or on a drawing program on your device. I do not want any Internet images or pictures. They must be hand-drawn using a ruler and labeled.

1. Type: Wind
2. Is it used in NZ? Yes
3. Other Countries that use it?  France, Canada, United Kingdom, Spain, Germany, The United States, and China.
4. How is it used to generate electricity? Wind turbines convert the energy in the wind into a mechanical power then it can help homes.
5. Draw and label a diagram of the main parts of the electricity generator? This can be done on paper and uploaded or on a drawing program on your device. I do not want any Internet images or pictures. They must be hand-drawn using a ruler and labeled.

3. Other Countries that use it? Western coast of Scotland, northern Canada, southern Africa, Australia, and the Northwest Coast of the United States.
4. How is it used to generate electricity? There is equipment on the surface of the ocean the gets energy from the movement in the water. 
5. Draw and label a diagram of the main parts of the electricity generator? This can be done on paper and uploaded or on a drawing program on your device. I do not want any Internet images or pictures. They must be hand-drawn using a ruler and labeled.

Puberty

Tane mahuta

                      C.I.P(Tane Mahuta)

Today in C.I.P the tane mahuta group want into the garden and picked out the weeds around the plants. It took long because there was a lot because over the holiday it grew so there was a lot but after a while, there was a lot of the weed gone because everyone was picking them out. In kiwi Kaha we played this game called spaceship it is when you got to find out the pattern to what the first person said, the second game we had to turn an object into something different from what it is.

Changes and challenges

Hi guys,

So this week we have been learning about puberty and it's most likely to go through puberty at the age of 8 and it ends at the age of 14 or 16. When boys go through puberty they start growing more hair in places like under the arm, around the rectum, and on the chest. When you are going through puberty your mood starts to play up like getting angry and sad and more, also as you get older your voice starts to get deeper. If you start to go through puberty it's ok because everyone has been through puberty once in their life.

Girls go through puberty a bit early than boys, as girls get older their hip gets bigger the reason it gets bigger is that. When they have a baby in their stomach they can carry it if you are a girl you are going to have this thing called period. For people who don't know what that is it is a thing that only girls have it, it is when blood comes out of the uterus.

Poem

Tyler
I am clever, chill, and fit
I am the son of Sione and the brother of Sione, Jack, and Manase
I have a cat Drago and my goldfish Lynx
The things I fear the most are spiders and other creepy crawlers
My achievements are finishing my work no matter what
I want to be in a shark cage and feed the shark
I was born in Auckland
I live in Christchurch
James Ward.

Wind

Extreme weather

Measuring weather.

Definitions:

1.  Anemometer:
2. Beaufort wind scale:

MATERIALs

1. Plastic lid x4.
2. Tape.
3. Scheuer.
4. Pencil.
5. Pin.

STEPS

1.  Tape to plastic lids onto a Scheuer.
2.   Do the same as number 1.
3.   Tape the Scheuer's together like a cross.
4.   Put a pin through the middle of the tape in the middle.
5.   Stick the pin through the pencil eraser.

Groups size: 5 
Roles:

• Timekeeper
• Counter
• Recorder
• Anemometer Manager
• Wind Manager

1. Mount the anemometer in a place that has full access to the wind from all directions.
2. When the timekeeper says "Go", the counter in each group will count how many times the marked cup passes them in one minute and write it down.
3. Repeat the above step four (4) times and record the number of spins on the chart.

FINDINGS

• Record how many times it spins and record it in the table below.

• You will need to time them and count the number of spins.

	Place name on school grounds	Number of Spins in 15 seconds
1.	Field	0.5
2.	Old J block site	1
3.	Grass hill quad	1
4.	Tennis Court gate	0

CONCLUSION:

The tennis court gate had 0 spins, the field had 0.5 spins and the old j block site and grass hill quad had the same amount of spins 1 I didn't think any of these places were gonna get any spins because it wasn't as windy outside. When we got to those places we had to time 15sec then once we get to 0sec we move on to the next location, we asked what other people got they said they got 0 spins for most of their's so not everyone had the same amount of spins. 

In the holidays I have been watching youtube, some of the YouTubers I have been watching are the Sdmn, KSI, miniminter, and moreSdmn, they are very funny. The videos they make are hide and seek and they do it in a very very big area and as they look for people they make jokes and they are just funny all around that is what I like about these YouTubers.

KSI is going to have a fight with this other YouTuber called logan paul, he use to be good but there was one video he shouldn't have posted I would talk about it but it is too sad. So KSI vs Logan paul they have already had one match but it ended up being a tie, so that was boring but there next fight is about to happen and I hope that KSI beats Logan paul so badly. Because Logan just annoys me so I hope that he loses, for people who don't know what KSI stands for it stands for Knowledge, Strength, and Integrity that's pretty cool. what does Logan paul stand for nothing, nothing at all?

Sdmn is a group of 7 YouTubers, Sdmn is just short for sidemen cause that's their group name but they spell it like that for short. They are all funny they sometimes make music against each other not all of them but they have all made a diss track to someone. Their music is alright but KSI and miniminters ones are the best KSI music are good like actual rap but miniminters music is funny. So I watch that just to get a good laugh if you are wondering how the Sdmn came together well. They all knew each other when they were younger so when they got into their teenage years they started making videos then they made a group Sdmn. MoreSdmn is just there second channel where they make other videos so I watch both channels to see what they made and see if it's funny and which it always is.

Twenty-five words

So this my poem that I made out of the 25 words.

Light white ice fall
blue snow water
runs fast past
feather puddles mountain
crusty burn
stars float fly
sunshine river
black bright sky
beautiful. 

So this was poem hope you liked it.
