Health

In health for the past few weeks my group (Tennessee and me) have been working on a slide show and researching about binge drinking. Firstly we had to choose our big 5 questions for our topic after we did that we had to research about the topic and we had to use those questions to find our answer. It was challenging sometimes because we didn't know what to do in some bits of the work but we got there in the end, we chose to do a google slide because it was the easiest thing to do because we were running out of time, next time I will try to do more work.

Dilution Experiment

What is Dilution: 

Making something less concentrated 

there will be less particles in the liquid

Hypothesis: which test tube is the most dilute? 

last one 

which test tube will be the lest dilute?

What did I do:

  • first we added 10 mils to the first test tube then we added 5 mils to the other 5 test tubes and after that there was a chemical that got added which had made it turn into a sorta dark bright purple colour.

was my hypothesis correct - kind of 

how did I know - I just guessed 

Science

 Aim: separate a mixture we have made using filtration

Hypothesis: I think it will make the colour lighter and it will separate.

When we mixed it, the colour turned into a darker blue, after that we then filtered it and one the blue one changed into a solid and the other then started falling down to a liquid... when we were filtering it, the blue one didn't go down but the other clear liquid did.

Budgeting guide - business studies

in business studies my class has been working on budgets, we have been doing tasks about budgeting and all of that - here is my budgeting guide.

What is budgeting:

Budgeting is the process of creating a plan to spend your money. This spending plan is called a budget. Creating this spending plan allows you to determine in advance whether you will have enough money to do the things you need to do or would like to do. Budgeting is simply balancing your expenses with your income. 

 

Key things you need to know:


Since budgeting allows you to create a spending plan for your money, it ensures that you will always have enough money for the things you need and the things that are important to you. Following a budget or spending plan will also keep you out of debt or help you work your way out of debt if you are currently in debt.


How does it help us?:


Since budgeting allows you to create a spending plan for your money, it ensures that you will always have enough money for the things you need and the things that are important to you. Following a budget or spending plan will also keep you out of debt or help you work your way out of debt if you are currently in debt.


What happens if we don't have a budget:


In short, the most common consequences of not budgeting include a lack of savings, less financial security, out of control spending, a higher likelihood of going into debt and more financial stress.


for this I used my own knowledge and google

Business & Enterprise Kete

For the past 3 weeks we have been involved in B & E Kete 

My role for B & E was production manager - a production manager is a person who controls the production process.

Our company was called Oozy Oobleck.

Our product was Oobleck.

My reflection on how B & E went was ok. It was slow at first because no one came to get our stuff but then people came from everywhere and primary school kid came then it was all sold out.

My overall reflection of B & E was good but I think we could of done the packaging better because it came undone a little bit, the highlight of yesterday when we did B & E was selling all of my groups product and making a profit.

Place

for market day my group are selling our product in a space outside

the good thing about our product is that no one else is selling Oobleck apart from my group and our product will stand out because instead of green Oobleck we are selling blue Oobleck and normally people leave it plain or green.

people have to walk past to notice our product be because there are lots of people selling things and they also need to walk past to see there product.

Price

For B&E market day students are selling products so they can make money and see how much profit they can get, my group is selling Oobleck - Oobleck is a slime thing and when you punch it it goes rock hard and when you relax your finger or hand it melts.

the price of my Oobleck is $2.00. its just spouse to be fun and messy and all of that.

the reason why it is $2.00 is because it does dry up and we don't want it to be that expensive because of that reason and its not free because we need to make money and make a profit.

Science

 aim: the see what happens when you put a heated can in cold water

hypothesis: i thought it was gonna blow up

but it didn't instead it squeezed the can together because we boiled the can and the water inside and then we put the can head in into the cold water and then it got squeezed together.

Before heating, the can is filled with water and air. When boiling the water, the water changes states from a liquid to a gas (Water Vapor) The water vapor pushes the air that was originally inside the can out into the atmosphere. When the can is turned upside down and placed in the water, the mouth of the can forms an airtight seal against the surface of the water in the bowl. In just a split second, all of the water vapor that pushed the air out of the can and filled up the inside of the can turns into only a drop or two of liquid, which takes up much less space.

Science

Today in science we have been learning about particles and how when you heat up some particles it speeds up and when you freeze it slows down because they are liquid and solids this is how particles interact.

say if someone takes there socks off and they have smelly feet then the people around that person will smell the particles first then the particles will spread around and everyone would be able to smell it then it would go away

aim: observe the effect of temp on speed diffusion

today in our experiment we put cold water on one plastic lid and put hot water on another plastic lid and we put this thingy powder into both of the waters and it spread out quicker in the hot water then it did in the cold water because the cold moves slower because they have less kinetic energy and they warmth has more kinetic energy.

BLOG POST - WELL BEING

 In the last two weeks we have looked at Resilience - Emotional Awareness (understanding emotions) and Impulses. these things mean to control your emotions and to understand to control emotions

Being able to control my emotions in different situations avoids - drama, and any time of sadness and madness, and to stay healthy on well being.

Knowing how to react and respond in situations rather than acting on impulses means that you can control your manners and attitude.

The effect it that these things have on my Social Wellbeing (Taha Whanau) is

kind:

- gain more friends

- people be nice to you

unkind:

- losing friends

people being mean to you

angels and movements - looks can be deceiving - workshop 2

brainstorm:
- high angel - makes the character "other wybie" look small, week, vulnerable 
- POV - "other mother" - dominant and powerful 
- medium shot - gives us some ideas of the background but not full
- audience feels - powerful, we are looking down on wybie throught the "other mothers'' POV
- sad, worried for wybie - he looks small, sad, innocent - the first character in the other world to suggest something is not right

- director purpose - to make us feel sorry for wybie 
- makes audience think that maybe the ''Other mother" isn't so nice - foreshadowing

paragraph:
in the shot with the "other wybie" and the "other mother", high angel shots  are used effectively to show the theme looks can be 'deceiving'. this is demonstrated through a high angel shot from the point of view of the other mother. she is looking down the front porch steps at the scared other wybie. this makes the audience fell worried / sorry for wybie and makes the other mother seem / feel powerful. the purpose of this scene was to make the audience think that maybe the other mother isn't as nice after all. combined with the use of lighting, wybie is in a warm light but surrounded by darkness, the directer has created an atmosphere of caution - somethings not right. this reminds the viewer of the later scene where coraline is looking up at the other mother in horror and she throws her through a magical portal into a locked room. this shows that looks can be deceiving because the other mother wasn't nice like coraline thought

brainstorm:
- the camera is tilted and looking at coraline creepily
- the camera angel is called a dutch tilt  - a dutch tilt is achieved by tilting the camera so the horizon is no longer level. used judiciously,it can provide an unusual or dramatic perspective.
-the viewers probably feel creeped out because the doll is spying on her because when we see the doll we know that the doll was watching her because it was on the same angel and it was when coraline looked at it 
-the directer did this to make the audience either feel scared or to entertain them or both.
- the lighting in the photo is dark, half wall half coraline, a tiny bit of light above her head

paragraph:

in this photo the doll is watching coraline this shot is called DUTCH TILT. This is demonstrated through the dutch tilt shot when the doll is watching over coraline. The doll is looking at coraline creepily and she didnt notice until about 10 seconds after. This makes the audience think that the doll is watching her because the other mother has button eyes and the doll has eyes. The purpose of this scene was to let the audience know that the doll was watching her. combined with the use of lighting, it was dark and we could see coraline on one half of the screen but the other half was a wall. The directer has created an atmosphere of caution - something is watching coraline.

here is my powtoon about opportunity cost sorry if its short 

arthritis

what are the causes of arthritis  
A reduction in the normal amount of this cartilage tissue cause some forms of arthritis. Normal wear and tear causes OA, one of the most common forms of arthritis. An infection or injury to the joints can exacerbate this natural breakdown of cartilage tissue.

can everyone get arthritis 
Not everyone develops osteoarthritis. It is not an inevitable condition. Risk factors increase the likelihood you will develop osteoarthritis, but people can develop the disease who have none of the known risk factors.

who is most likely to get arthritis 
Age. The risk of many types of arthritis — including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and gout — increases with age. Your sex. Women are more likely than men to develop rheumatoid arthritis, while most of the people who have gout, another type of arthritis, are men.

what are the two most common types of arthritis
Two common types of arthritis are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Osteoarthritis (OA) is a painful, degenerative joint disease that often involves the hips, knees, neck, lower back, or small joints of the hands.

Tips for preventing arthritis
  1. Maintain a healthy weight. ...
  2. Don't smoke, or quit smoking. ...
  3. Try to avoid injury when playing sports or participating in recreational activities.
  4. If your job requires a lot of pushing, pulling, or lifting of heavy objects, take precautions to avoid injury to your joints.

how is arthritis treated
Treatment of arthritis generally includes rest, occupational or physical therapy, exercise, drugs, and sometimes surgery to correct joint damage. Treatments for osteoarthritis generally can help relieve pain and stiffness, but the disease may continue to progress.

workshop 1 unpacking things and ideas

theme/idea - something that links throughout the story

"looks can be deceiving" 
- things aren't always what they seem

EXAMPLE 1 = the beldam / other mother
- she starts off good and then ends up evil / soul eater / metal spider demon
- shows theme because the other mother changes over time without the audience and Coraline not noticing 
- important to the story because it helps the audience understand Coralines choice when she realises that having everything perfect won't make her happy.

EXAMPLE 2 = other world vs the real world
the other world is a perfect web / trap to catch coraline whereas the real world is boring but safe 
- shows theme because even though the other world seems better in every way, the real world is actually better / safer because it isn't a trap.
- important for her audience to understand why coraline goes back into the real world.

Statement - in coraline, themes and ideas are used effectively

Evidence - for instance, "looks can be deceiving" is shown through the character of the 'Other Mother" the other mother starts out nice but is revealed to be a soul devouring demon.

eXplanation - this makes the audience feel that we shouldnt trust things or people that seem perfect at first glance

eXplanation - this was done to make us feel weary or develop a sence of caution towards a new situation   

eXplanation - coinciding with this is the use of colour to show the "other mother" is becoming more evil, at the start she is surrended by warm colours that makes  us feel safe but by the end it is dark with neon green.

your link - this theme is also shown through the changes in the other world as it is revealed to be a spider web design to catch coraline
