Ballys Adventures

WALT make a slide show animation. I did this Using google slides to do this you have to make way more slides then you would usually. After every slide you have to make the teeniest difference. This was my first one. I hope you like it.

Paper Chairs! STEM.

We are learning to problem solve as a team.
We made a chair out of paper and tape it had to be 10 cm.
My team was  Mayah Talulah  Miller and Me but Miller wasn´t here so it was the three of us. We had about half an hour to make our paper chair. At the end I was pretty proud of it but when it was testing time we didn´t even make through the first stage. Stage one was a Chicorita plushie (Chicorita= Pokemon), and stage two was a long Tuatara. The thing that went well was probably all of us having a role to do, and the what we need to work on might be working as a team. It was pretty challenging making a chair out of paper I mean it harder then you think it is right.

Have you ever made something out of paper?

Explanation Writing

We have been learning to write an explanation about animal life animal life cycles. We had to do google docs about the life cycle of  Frog the life cycle of a Panda and the life cycle of a Tuatara. The thing that went well was that we got heaps of information about different animals. my next step is probably not saying they a lot at the start of my sentences.

Have you ever seen a life cycle before?

The Life Cycle Of A Tuatara!

Have you ever wondered about the life cycle of a Tuatara, egg to its full grown life well today your gonna find out!

The Egg Stage.

Tuatara eggs get buried in soil. They lay about ten-nineteen eggs at a time they stay in the soil for up to twelve-fifteen months. The Tuatara grows in the egg for time it is in the egg and they are soft and leathery                                                 (the eggs). The weather depends on which it is a male or female it will be a male if it is cold and a female if it is warm.

The Hatchling Stage

Secondly the Hatchlings come out of the eggs and are left to defend themselves. They also have three eyes the Hatchlings are twelve to fifteen centimetres long.

The Juvenile Stage

For the first fifteen years they are called Juveniles. Juveniles can not have babies. They avoid adult Tuataras cause they are cannibals and that's why they hunt in the day. They grow scales over their third eye because they don't ́t need it anymore and are about forty five- sixty centimetres.

The Tuatara Stage

Adult Tuataras sleep during the day and hunt during the night because they are nocturnal animals. They bask in the sun to get body temperature. They hibernate through the Winter to avoid the cold temperature and not much food like Bears. They have babies every three to four years. The food they eat are Beatles, Crickets, Spiders, frogs, Lizards, Centipedes, eggs, birds and members of its own species.

Stem Friday

W.A.L.T : To problem solve as a team.
Today we had stem, our challenge was to build a bridge that was off the ground that is made of ice block sticks and rubber bands. Before we did anything we work out how we are going to form our project after that we started to create the bridge at first it was all a bit challenging but then we all kinda got the hang of it all. The thing that we did good was we all were working and creating stuff for our bridge,Next time i think we all could have a positive mind set at the start.When e tested our bridge sadly it did not work but at least we tried our hardest.

Have you ever done stem before ?
Please check out my blog.

Fantastic Friday STEM

W.A.L.T work together to problem solve.
At the end we managed to get the marble through our project that we made, at the end it was really cool out come and to see other groups work really hard.
something that was challenging was having a good mind set that is something we need to work on and that was challenging.
Our next step is to work as one and try a little bit harder.

The Balloon Experiment

Last Wednesday we did an experiment with some balloons we learnt about density and surface pressure and how things float so we did an experiment with some balloons we acted like the balloons were the water and that we were floating on it. We were learning to write recounts in a recount there are...  The intro which has to have the five w's the five w's are who, what, when, where, and why. After the intro there is the main body that includes all of the main parts in the recount. Then there is the conclusion that is how you felt and all of your feelings.

The Balloon Experiment.

Last Wednesday  Room 4 did an experiment with the balloons.

We did it in Room 4. We did it because we wanted to continue on stem for surface pressure. 

 At first we didn't know what we were doing but then Miss Hart pulled out a packet of balloons and handed one out to everyone. We started to blow up the balloons and put them in the middle. Miss Hart asked some people to help get a move a desk upside down onto the balloons. After that we got into a circle and she got the desk on the balloons. The people that went on first were Kate G and Nevaeh. They looked like they were pretty scared and after a while they got off. Miss Hart chose some more people I was the first person I got on straight away and stood up and waited. She chose five more people they were, Quinn, Alex, Aimee, Ocea, and Bryce. Bryce kept on jumping up and down and trying to make the balloons. But I told him to stop.

I felt pretty nervous about getting on the desk on the balloons but pretty excited at the same time. But I loved it! It was probably the best experiment ever!
