Cats are better than dogs

 Cats are better than dogs 

Throw the past  week in hurumanu 3 we had to chose out of 5 options and I chose cats are better than dogs.I don't think cats are better than dogs but this is what but there was no option for dogs are better than cats but this is what i write.

Cats are better than dogs.

Do you want your clothes to be destroyed and your furniture to be treated to bits well? I'm going to tell you why a cat is for you.

Dogs sniff each other 's dogs but that's not clean, they are everywhere and they need to walk at least 30 mins a day. 

Do you want to pick up dog poop for twelve years? It is even harder when it is runny.

Yeah i wouldn't either .And what if your dog poops and you don't have a poop bag you will get fined. 

Do you want to wait 5 mins just for your dog to wee on a tree just to leave a mark for another dog yeah me either. 

If they are not trained they can wee on your carpet  then you'll need to clean it up and wait for it to dry all day.

And they can wee own your neighbours lawn and they can complain to the police and may get fined. 

At night if your dog barks your neighbours can get irritated and complain and your dog can get taken away for a day.

A reason that dogs bark at night is because they might hear noises from your neighbours house or across the street or they just want to go outside.

Cats don't bark like dogs do there, not as noisier either. Because they just sleep all day.

But dogs need to be walked 30 mins a day which is time consuming and if they don't get walked they will get miserable and fat and then they won't like you.

And cats clean themselves but having a dog means you’ll need to drive or walk your dog to the dog wash which is time consuming and costs money.

Hurumanu 1

In Nga Tangata, Hurumanu 1 we studied the lives of some local,national,international heroes.

A hero is a male or female or a group of people that save people in danger.

I made slides about 6 sporting heroes. They were, Richie Mccaw  ,Chelsea Bremner, 

Valarie Adams , Jack Lovelock, Usain bolt  and Serena williams

I also made some slides about a local hero who achieved good things writing for children.She was Margaret Mahy.

We read about a musical group called Crowded House. They were said to be heroes for just one day when they performed in Christchurch.  We discussed the meaning of hero worship’.The hero I worship is Michael Jordan.

Earthquake heroes I researched were. Erwin R Poloczac,Craig Tompson,Allisen Partridge,Andrea,Robinson,Mayor Bob Parker,Amo Perellini and St Johns ambulance.

            I also wrote about myself as a superhero.  My alias I Here is my story:

Hi, I'm Unknown. I'm a superhero and I'm gonna tell you my past. So when I was 15 I was a pilot and one day I was doing a test flight while I was testing the jet. There were some random alien type planes shooting me out of the air.I got hit so I was about to have a crash landing. Seconds before the crash landing the motor exploded which was an energy core and somehow i absorbed it and now I have super powers. These are my super powers Super strength, Super speed,flying and my favourite is teleportation. And now I try to find the aliens that shot me out of air.

   

 

Skittles

 Aim.. To use water to extract the dye from skittles using the process of chromatography. 

Materials

1 5 Skittles 

2 Water 

3 Petri dish 

4 Beaker 

Process 

Step 1 place the skittles into the petri dish around the edges 

Step 2 pour 50 ml water gently into the middle of the petri dish   

Step 3 watch the colour combination.

Here is a class Graph on what colour came shown first 

Colour	Tally	Number
Green		0
Yellow	l	1
red	llll/ l	6
Purple	ll	2
Orange	l	1

Why do they bleed out at the same rate. Because they are the same flavour 

Why do the colours not mix together. Because of the sugar

Washing machine timeline

In hurmanu 3 we have been talking about inventions. This weeks tasks was to create a timeline of something that has improved over the years.i chose the washing machine and it improved from hand wash to technology that we have today. 

Science experiments

 Aim: To demonstrate how to heat liquid inside a test tube.

Equipment:Bunsen burner,Heatproof mat,Lighter,Test tube,test tube tongs and safety glasses.

Method:

1 Light the Bunsen burner  

2 Fill your test tube to approximately 5 ml water 

3 Turn the collar at the Bunsen so it is a blue flame

4 Holding the test tube with the test tube tongs tilt the test tube on a 45 degree angle an and place the bottom of the test tube into the flame ensure that the mouth of the test tube is facing towards others.

5 Gently wave the test tube in and out of the flame remember you are trying to heat the liquid gently 

6 Once the water starts to gently bubbly,take is away from the flame carefully pour the water into the sink.
