The Color of The Flame

The Color of The Flame
Today we had science YAY.

Today we were learning and using the Bunsen Burner.

We had to learn the safety rules first though obviously.

1. The location of the lab fire extinguisher and safety blanket is known.

2. Safety glasses were worn.

3. Long hair was tied back and loose items of clothing tucked away.

4. The Bunsen Burner was placed on a heat resistance surface. 

5. The Bunsen Burner is not too close to the edge of the desk.

6. The burner was connected to the gas tap correctly.

7. The rubber tubing was checked for cracks or leaks. 

8. The air hole on the Bunsen burner was closed before lighting.

9. The splint was lit before the gas was turned on.

10. The splint was positioned correctly while the gas was turned on.

11. The student can adjust the flame safely.

So after all that we could get started.

When we were using the Bunsen burner we had to make the different color flames e.g a blue to green flame. At the end we got a Bunsen Burner licence.
I liked using the Bunsen burner because i had never used one before. My favorite part was getting to see the flames change there color.

This is a photo of the types of flames we had to make.

Lunch Box Homework week 2

The Fabulous lunch box

This is a lunch box that has a balance of fruit and snacks. This lunch box is good because it has a good amount of fruit. It has an apple some grapes and a watermelon. It also has some carrots which is a vegetable. This lunch box has a total of 4 fruit and veg so it will be easy to get a total of 5 fruit a day with this lunch box. For the yummy treats it has nuts and croissant. To top it all off it has a juice box and a sandwich.

The fabulous lunch box

This would have to be my absolute dream lunch box.

Homework Week 1

This is my poem changed into a word cloud. 

Homework is something that everyone hates but you have got to do.

Homework is a task that you have to complete by the end of the week. 

We have a set of challenges for homework and we pick out which one we would like to do.

My gif on Homework

The one I picked for the first week of term 2 is a A - Z poem of emotions.

Healthy Person Diagram

We have been learning about what it takes to be healthy and what you can do to be healthy. In groups we had to create a google drawing that shows someone talking about being healthy. Me and Ruby were a team and we created this google drawing.

I love the google drawing because of the colour contrast from blue to purple. I loved making this google drawing with Ruby because we did something original. Overall I think that this was a fun task and the only thing challenging was getting pictures that are labelled for noncommercial. 

Learning To Give Change

LO: To learn how to give change

We have been learning to give change from big amounts.

We showed our learning by making this DLO ( Digital Learning Object).

What I have learned from making this is there is a way to teach something in less then 3 minutes.

So here is my DLO. 

My Link

This will teach you an idea on how to give change.

What I thought was a challenge: Well I did not really find anything hard expect when putting in the link that I did the type of link that everyone can view.

Hope you have learned something and be feel to comment : )

Our World Our Life

We have been learning about the 4 spheres. Geosphere, Biosphere, Hydrosphere and Atmosphere. To show are learning we used the digital tool called thinglink. I learnt a lot about each sphere and now I am sharing it with you. You may think you know lots about the hydrosphere but did you know water is a million years old. Well its true so I guess you don't know everything so why not stop and have a little read... 

So you learned something new I sure did. If you want to make a thinglink then go to your search bar and search thinglink.com Something you might find hard when making a thinglink is it takes some time to change from one to other. So just take your time and have some fun.
Please feel free to comment :)

Timeline

LO: Is to create an Insisomo timeline.

Today we explored the site of Timeline.knightlab

This site is for making a timeline using google spreadsheet.

I learned a lot of things using this site it is another digital tool I can use when doing my work.

This tool would be used when doing reading and searching up information.

Insisomo is when you use interactions which is In. si is for sight. so is for sound. mo is for motion. 

Together they make Insisomo and this is what I use when making a blog post effective blog post.I think I have met the sight and the motion task.

Some challenges you might face when making this is when your adding a new column. Make sure to to replace a 1000 with how many you want to add I learned that the hard way. I hope you have enjoyed reading my blog post and you have fun creating one to.
Feel free to comment with your feedback do this post.

Time To Create

Welcome, Today I am going to show you how to make a GIF like this.

I made this gif in 7 minuets and it is simple and easy.

I used a cool website called gifcreator.me.

Now lets start teaching.

I hope you have enjoy watching my DLO until next time.

My Audience

We are learning to create a positive digital footprint.

We often share personal information when we are online. The people we share with could be our friends and family or people we don't know. We need to make smart decisions about what personal information we share online.

Soft Materials

Today we have another session of soft materials. 

We worked in partners and mine was Lauren. In soft materials we learnt how to thread the sewing machine. I have used a sewing machine before but this was a different sort of model so I still learnt lots about threading the machine. 

Threading the sewing machine

Once we had thread the sewing machine we got to try it out on test fabric to see if we did it right. If we did then we could do some practice.

My test fabric try out

I had some much fun getting hands on a getting to use the sewing machine. I learnt a whole bunch of new things. I found out that all of the sewing machine are not different from each other.

Reading

For reading we have been going on to a site for Newsela and reading texts from there. We read this cool text and I have done a DLO about it. The text was called the history of earth day.

Earth day is a day  is celebrated to show how much we love the earth. Senator Gaylor came up with this idea. The reason he made earth day up because we where not treating earth very nicely. So this way everyone is coming together and helping the earth. I really liked finding out about earth day and I want you to join in on earth day!!!

Soft Materials

Today we went to technology for soft materials. 

 WALT: learning how to use a sewing machine.

Today when we went to tech we learnt how to use a sewing machine safely we did this by learning what dose what and what moves when we press the peddle. To practice this we started sewing on a template. That looked like this.

This is me having ago.

Once we had finished sewing our template we got to do a Challenge. For my challenge I did a butterfly.

Which looked like this.

I loved doing tech it was so fun and I loved it

Reflection  

I loved doing technology today I learnt to use a new sewing machine. I had fun and learnt a lot of new skills.

Exploring Blogs

We are learning to create a positive digital footprint.

We often share personal information when we are online. The people we share with could be our friends and family or people we don't know. We need to make smart decisions about what personal information we share online.

Refection

The heart of the school

The heart of the school

WALT was to learn how to make a WordCloud and to present information.

Term 1 has flew past and bam it's term 2. I have some work that I have made on the first week of term 1 about words the describe on what makes Hornby high a good school. To show the words in an presentable way we used WordCloud.

• First we went on to WordCloud and had a little look around and tested things out.
• Then we started typing in words to describe a good school e.g value.
• Once we sorted out the words we change the colour and the shape the words would be.
• Then we finished it and upload it.

Overall I had  an awesome time learning how to use WordCloud and all it can do.

Now I would say I am an expert! 

Here is the link go have fun making your own.
