EOTC days out, Adrenalin forest, Canterbury Museum Christchurch and jelly park

Adrenalin forest 

Task: To tell the reader about the EOTC that you're most looking forward to and tell them what you are excited for and what you're nervous for. 

For our EOTC days out the EOTC, I'm most looking towards is the Adrenalin forest as I have been there before and it was so fun. I'm excited to go again so that I can go higher than last time and stay in the treetops for longer. I'm a bit nervous to try to go to the very tops of the trees and zipline around the treetops. I think that the thing that I'll enjoy the most is ziplining around the trees. 





Canterbury Museum Christchurch.

Task: To find I topic to read about and tell it back in your own words, and explain what you think about the online showing of this museum exhibit to show why and why not we should have them.

Courageous dogs: kid the courageous steward Clarence Howard Hare owed his life to his favourite dog, Kid. after being stuck in a blizzard and getting split up from the other group members. in fear of falling asleep and freezing to death he slipped done a slippery slope and succumbed to his sleepiness and fell asleep. 2 days later when he woke up he found that Kid had dug a small area out and had been warming him with this body heat. Kid died in the following year. 

I think that these online showings of history are very useful in time like this when with covid making everyone have to stay home, no one can go to the museum to learn.



Jelly park 


Task: To make a raft to hold you and 2 of your friends 
To make this raft you'll need one maybe two rolls of waterproof tape and 18 noodles. 

Aline the pool noodles up and down all next to each other and put the tape across the noodles from top to bottom so you make them stay stuck next to each other. Them sticking next to each other is what is going to keep you afloat and your friends afloat. you'll need to lie on your front or back to spread the weight of you and your friends.

dilution

 Aim:

To make a dilution series to investigate, concentration 

Hypothesis:

That the one on the end number 6 is going to be the dilutes of the lot and the first one will be the most concentrated.  

method:

we put 5mls from the number one test tube which had 10mls into the number 2 test tube which had 5mls of water in it (all the test tube except the number one test tube had 5mls of water in it) then we put 5mls from the number 2 test tube into the number 3 test tube and so on until we have reached the number 6 test t

Concussion:

my hypothesis is correct and the last one is the dilutes and the first one id the most concentrated.  



filtration experiment

Aim: 

the separate mixture we have made using filtration 

Hypostasis:

 I think if the liquid will change colour and if anything is produced then It could be filtered but if it just changes colour then it will not be able to be filt3er unless we use a chemical filter.   

observations:

when the two liquids mixed the resulting liquid had turned a darker shade of blue and the liquid had become a bit thicker. 

explanation 

this happened because the copper sulfate and sodium carbon switched places meaning that the copper sulfate head become sodium sulfate and the sodium carbonate had become copper carbonate making the liquids filterable because the copper carbonate is filterable because it is solid. the reason the copper carbonate does not dissolve is that the copper carbonate is insoluble.

budgeting guide

We have been learning about budgeting for a while now and I feel that I have a pretty good grasp on the subject.  This is a budgeting guide for those who don't know what budgeting is.

budgeting is where you set a budget for a length of time, such as between pays, for the month or when you're on a vacation. having a budget dictates how much you can spend and if you have any surplus from your budget then that can go into your savings that you may be able to spend on your wants. Needs are what you spend your budget on and wants is what you use your surplus or savings on. A good way to budget 


reflection I feel if I had more time on this then I could have done a better job of this and if I had managed my time better then I could have added more. I find that budgeting is a very cut and clean topic that's very hard to expand to a level where there's more to read 

Is there anything I missed and do you have any question for my work?

All of the information in this blog came from my learning in class 

volleyball

today we were doing volleyball. We were doing the standard hit the ball on the palms out hands on each other hitting the ball to the opponents or to other teammates. 

Here's a picture of me demonstrating it.  

Other hits are the set, bump, serve and spike.
spick it hitting down into the opponents.
set is with the finger hitting straight up fo someone else to spike.
serve is the serving hit for the backline of the court. 
bump is just bumping the ball in the air for someone to hit.
