Why schools should start at 10 am.

 I believe that schools should start at 10 am because:


Students and teachers wouldn't be as tired. Being less tired means people would be more focused. More focused means more learning.


Teachers and students wouldn’t be so rushed in the morning, which means that people won’t forget stuff, and it’s also better for your mental health.

Having better mental health means that students would get a better view on school and it is also better overall. 


Students would more likely come to school, better attendance. Which also means they will learn more as they are there more of the time.

More learning = better future.


Students will be a lot better, which means they are nicer to teachers and that means that the teachers will be happier and they will be nicer to the students.

Reflection on rubber band cup mover.

                   Rubber band cup mover.

My group and I were unsuccessful of moving the cup, but we did come up with lots of ideas.


 

The IP skill that I used today was…. communication with my team and active listening, listening to there ideas.

Using this IP skill helped to….Get more ideas and working on our ideas. This helped with the activity because…. We needed these skills, otherwise we wouldn't of gotten anything done.

Using this IP did not help with the activity today because…. Sometimes we got frustrated with each other.

Today I worked well with…. Dylan and Zoe example of when we worked well together was…. we got lots done on our activity.

If I got to do the activity again, I would….. Try other ideas.

I worked at…...level 4 of Hellison's Behaviour Model. Examples of what I did to show that I worked at this level are... Helped my friends.

























Dirty Water, Chemistry.

                              Dirty Water.

The aim of this experiment, is to be able to dilute dirty water to be able to get it to the point were it is drinkable.


Method - 

Make the dirty water. 
use a 250ml beaker and then get 200mls of water.
Add 2 spoonfuls of dirt.
Add 10mls of oil.
Add a spoonful of pebbles.
Stir it for 2 minutes.
Label a piece of paper to keep the beaker on.
Take a photo of the dirty water.


Now we stir the water for a minute, 
measure 100mls of the dirty water and poor it into another beaker. 
Add 100mls of clean water into the dirty water and poor the other dirty water out.
And then repeat again. 
And now we take a picture of the diluted dirty water.

After that we out together this thing together this thing that holds the funnels which we put the filters in for us to pour the diluted dirty water into so that it filters it and we will do that a few times to hopeful help get it to the point were we can drink it.

Here are some pictures of the diluted dirty water, the clean water that got filtered, and the filtering system.






















Solute = The dirt in this product.

Solvent = The liquid in the product = The water

Solution = Anything that has had something that has been dissolved in it.

Dissolved = when the solid disappears.

Diluted = When the solution is watered down lots.

Concentrated = When there is lots of solid present. 

Filtrate = The product after it has been filtered - The clean water.

In my opinion it worked very well. The water was completly clear when we filtered it! I wouldn't change anything.. Actually I might change my team, hahaha
