Good or Bad?

Here I am examing the egg in the Coca Cola

In class we have been doing a science experiment it is about seeing if sugary drinks and diet drinks are harmful. I think they are. What do you think? My favourite part is looking at what the drinks are doing to the eggs.

Here are some of the procedure

Wednesday 15 November 2017

Today we started  our science project.

1. Firstly Marta and Andy poured Coca Cola  into a 200 mls container.
2. Next Rangimarie poured the Coca Cola into the container with the egg in it. We used the pH strip to see if the color would change.
3. We submerged the egg in the drink.  
4. We left it in there for about 1-10 minutes.
5. We tested Coca Cola. The color turned orange and yellow.
6. Then we had to take a screenshot of our pH strip.
7. Before we took a screenshot of our pH strip we compared the colours to the pH scale.

Here is my pH strip

I will observe the changes for a few more days.

Sports vs Music

I’m learning to use a variety of sentence types for effect. What I need to work on is using short punchy sentences and commas for phrases. I think I am good at using complex, compound and simple sentences and using semicolons and colons.

• Simple,compound and complex sentences
• Commas for phrases
• Commas for additional information
• Short punchy sentences for impact

• Use colon and semicolon

Sports vs Music

I think that music is more important than sports. Do you agree? I do. I agree that music is more important because listening to music can help your body, can motivate you and help you learn new languages. Just imagine a world without music. It would be so boring. That's why I think music is more important than sports.

Firstly, I think that music is more important than sports because listening to music can help your body. I know that sports can help your body. because it can make you healthy and fit. But a magnificent article has shown that music in particular can help with more common diseases. Such: as short-term and long-term dementia, Parkinson's disease and can help lower blood pressure. But on the other hand sports makes your blood pressure go higher and also if you're healthy and fit, you could still have a disease like Parkinson's disease. That's why I totally agree that music is more spectacular than sports ; also in sports you can get injured this is so tragic.

Secondly, I think that music is more important than sports because music motivates people. Music definitely motivates me. I think that music, especially hip hop, is really extraordinary. Don’t you think? I really love music because it motivates me. Does it motivate you? For example whenever I run I like to listen to music because it makes me want to run harder. Every time I want to give up I play a song that will motivate me. But sports dosen’t do this if anything it makes you tired. It makes you want to give up.

Thirdly, I think that music is more important than sports because music can help you learn new languages. Do you want to know new languages? I sure do. Playing songs that have different languages can help you to learn new languages. Music is so spectacular,exquisite and terrific. Don’t you think so?  I listen to songs that have all sorts of languages and it really helps. Music teaches me new words and every time I listen to a new song I learn something new. But listening to music also helps younger children because you can play songs like the ABC song and so much more there is such a variety. With sports it is a lot more difficult to learn new languages. So that's why I say music is more important than sports it is so much easier to learn new languages and music is just full of joy.

In summary I think that music is more important than sports because, as I have said before music helps your body, music helps motivate you and music can teach you new languages.

The Heroic Rough Riders!!!

W.A.L.T know the movie making process. What I liked the most about making movies was putting in the black and white background and adding sound effects. I learnt that making movies on green screen is really hard because you need to get your placing right. Next time I think that we need to work on keeping the camera very still. We can achieve this by having a tri-pod but what we were using was a book holder and it still did the job but not as good. Enjoy the movie. 

Reading D.L.O

We are learning to read with fluency

To be successful I will:

• Pause at commas
• Stop at full stops
• Sound natural (not like a robot)
• Adjust my reading speed when I come  to difficult words

When I listen to my reading I think that I done good. I think I was successful at everything.
What I found hard was reading the difficult words on this page.

Past,present and future

I was learning how to add the extension na te mea ( that means because).My favourite part about making this slide show was decorating. What I found easy was making this whole presentation. I was impressed that I could make this whole slide show in forty minutes. Next time I would like to screencastify my slide. Hope you enjoy my presentation.

9 parts of speech

W.A.L.T understand the 9 parts of speech. I found that understanding adverbs was a bit hard but I got it in the end. Next time I would like to make my D.L.O more creative.
