Olympic value animation

We were learning about... Olympic values are excellentes respect and friendship

I found it easy to...add mote in the background of my slide show

I found it hard to...work on the same slide as EVE is on

I really enjoyed...working as a team with Eve and sharing friendship

Next time I need to...work as a team on the same slide

Coin Drop

 COIN DROP


How can coins, a glass cup and paper help us test Newton's first law of motion?


An object at rest stays at rest and object in motion stays in motion with same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced/outside force.


The law of inertia and gravity work on the coins, the law states that an object at rest will stay at rest unless an opposing force is acted upon it.



we were learning about...inertia
i found it hard to...hit it at the right speed
i found it easy to... set up the coin drop
next time i will... us my hand more seriously

Egg Drop

 EGG DROP

today we were learning about inertia Newton first law motion once the egg starts to move it didn't want to stop.The container of water emptied the eggs fall, providing a safe place for the egg to stop
moving so you could recover it unbroken.The gravity-pushed the egg caused the water to splash out and the reason why we did this experiment is because we like to learn about Inertia and the three Newton laws of motion

EQUIPMENT
1 cup of water
water
a flat tray or plate
1 egg
1 cardboard toilet roll

 we were learning about...Inertia
i found it hard to...hit it at the right speed and time
i found it easy to hit it
next time i will... be more gentle

M&M

Can you bet an ALL Black???

we started by stone stacking and gravity. we had to try to bet an all black

Read all about the British engineer who broke the Guinness World record for stacking M&M's.

British engineer breaks Guinness World Record

we were learning about...gravity and stone and m&m stacking
i found it hard to...stack the m&ms
i found it easy to...eat the m&ms
next time i will...take my time

Should we be prepared for a natural disaster

We were learning about... persuasive writing

I found it hard to... explore websites and note take

I found it easy to... recraft my writing 

Next time i will... add more detail

Balloon Rocket

 

Balloon Rocket

You will need:

  • string

  • balloon

  • tape

  • paper straw

Let's make a balloon rocket.


Now we've seen how it works can you level up? Try testing different angles, different size balloons, different amounts of air in the balloon.


How it works...

Our Rocket Blast Balloon demonstrates Newton’s Third Law of Motion: for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

When we release the balloon, the pressurized air in the balloon pushes against the air around the balloon sending it in the opposite direction down the string.


We were learning about...the third Newton's law of motion.

i found it easy to... listen to instructions

i found it hard to...talk it through with my whanau

next time i will...explain more with family and friends
