The Wonder Project - Session 4 (Aerodynamics)

 HI Bloggers,

This week for session 4 in our Wonder Project, we were looking at aerodynamics. At first we watched a clip and then we were testing our paper planes. Colm, our ambassador, made different types of paper air planes and we were testing them out. We tested them by seeing how far they go. After that we had 5 minutes to make a plane of our choice. I got help because I don't know how to make a plane. But my plane was good. When we got back to class we talked about a prototype and the safety tips. Then we started to make our prototype rockets. For my group we made three fins, one smiley face on the lid, three circles as tiny windows and some designs. We cut the neck of a mountain dew bottle and put it on the bottom of the bottle. Once we were done we just packed and waited until the rest of the groups were done.

The Wonder Project - Newton's Law (Session 3)

 Hi Bloggers,

This time (for the Wonder Project) we had our third session. If you didn't know what the Wonder Project is then you should look at my old post. Today we were learning about Newton's laws. The three laws are: The law of motion, The law of directions and one more which I don't remember. When we were at the hall then we were doing an amazing experiment. We had 3 tables with three bottles at each tiny table. Three people would go up and they would stand there until they are told to start. There is a sheet underneath the three bottles. One bottle half way, one empty and one full. You are meant to pull the sheet and only one is meant to fall. The one that falls is the one without water and sometimes the one full of water. My classmate, Haunga did it in one go.  A lot of people were able to do it. After that we were drawing a rocket in our groups. When we came back to our class we were given papers to draw our own rockets but not in groups, independently. Then we got together and chose a design that your group likes. My group liked my designs and my fins. 

Here are some pictures and videos:

These were the rocket designs:

The Wonder Project

 Hi Bloggers,

This week, for the Wonder project, we looked at health and safety. We also did some test launches with bottles. The Wonder Project is a project where we bring 1.5 litre bottles.  Then we put fins on them and make them into a rocket. We put different amounts of water in. We put pound per square inch (PSI) with a air pump. We used 50-60 PSI. After that we launch them into the sky. Our scientist Colm was taking the test launches with two students.

Healthy Eating Poster

 Hi Bloggers,

Yesterday a nice lady from Heart Foundation came to our school. Her name is Isabel. So she came and we did a lesson about everyday foods and sometimes foods. We also did a small activity. We put different types of food under the four food groups and the sometimes foods. The four food groups are Fruits and Vegetables, Proteins (Meat, Fish, Poultry, etc), Grain foods, Milk and milk products. Here is my poster I made about Healthy Eating:

Swimming photos

 HI Bloggers,

Today I will show you some swimming photos. So I found these photos when I was looking through my drive. If you don't know what a drive is, then it's a place where all your documents and saved pictures are. The swimming photos are from 2018 but I haven't really showed anyone, I have showed a couple of people. I wanted to share the pictures with you. In 2018 I was a year 3 and my teacher was Mr Lunn. Here are the pictures: 

Thanks for looking at my blog. I hope you liked the photos. 

Sea level poster

 HI Bloggers world,

Today I finished my poster about sea level rising. So we were looking at climate changes and I chose to write about sea level. I wrote a lot of things about sea level. It is very important if you didn't know. I hope you learn something about sea level. Here is my poster:

Thanks for looking at my post. Have a great day!
