Term 2 Assembly

Isn't it awesome starting at school again for term two? "too me it is". I like coming back to school because I get to meet my friends again. On the 5 of May our school had a Assembly it was really cool because every assembly on the first day of every new start of a term they always have short performances from every team from team one to five.

The first one was team one, team one was all about the Zoo. The teachers made a video for the hole school too watch. They had a great video because it shows how they would keep the animals safe and us safe too. They are taking all of the team one students to the Zoo  "I wish I could go.

Team Two was all about Flying machines and how they work. they also made a little video too. On the video there were Hot air balloons everywhere after the video one of the teachers were dressed as a helicopter and another teacher was dressed as a plan and the last person was dressed as an pilot they all looked funny nearly everyone was laughing. The last character was a fairy who didn't know how the machines work so when she pointed her magic wand and dusted every teacher on the stage with magic dust and they turned on witch was very funny.

Team Threes performance was all about colour. I like there one the most because they told us how a rainbow is created plus I like colours too.Well when it rains a shine of like shines through one single rain drop then travels through many other rain drops that also creates different multiple colours and creates one gigantic rain bow that starts who knows were.

Team Fours one wasn't much of a performance it was mostly a documentary about Displacement and Buoyancy. Displacement for example is like a boats going into water and when the boats sets in, the water expands and the water rises up closer to the deck of the boat. Buoyancy for example is a little bit like Displacement but it's all about floating I still like it though plus it's good to learn new things once in a while.

Team fives performance was all about Sound It was really cool because all the teachers created different kinds of  home made instruments they all looked really weird but at least there instruments made a sound. Some instruments made oddly weird noises but I still like them.

They see with there ears

SCIENTIFIC METHOD

 Ask a Question/ or Make an Observation:  

                  What are you curious about? Or what you seen that makes you wonder?          

  Research Your Topic:

                  What information can you find out about your topic.

   Write a Hypothesis

                  What do you think is the the answer to your problem or

                  the reason for your observation? Make an educated

                  guess that you can test.    

Plan and Perform Experiments:

                A) You will need to plan or design your experiment to

                test your hypothesis. B) Predict what you think will

                happen in your experiment. C) Test it and gather data.

Analyse Your Data/ Conclusion:

                What does you data show? Did the experiment confirm

                your hypothesis? Your prediction may not have been

                Correct. That’s O.K.

Report your Findings:

Echolocation

Echolocation:
Did you know that Bats uses echolocation. If you don’t know what it is well echolocation is locating with sound. You’ll have be very clever too know how to use this kind of technique.

Bats:

Bats use echolocation to use echolocation you have to locate anything in front of them and anything on the side of them too. Bats create noises with their noses and the noise creates sound waves that hits an object and rebounds to them and they know how far away the object is and how close the object is also what kind of size it too.


Ben:




There are very few people that use echolocation. But there is a teenager called Ben Underwood who had lost his eyes by cancer when he was three years old. So as years past through, one day him and his mother were riding in there car and past big buildings Ben says to his mum “ Mum can you see that big building out there” his mum was shocked when she heard him say that and his mum replied “I can but can you” that's when he could use echolocation.


When I finished watching the video about a Ben I thought to myself “if I close my eyes and make random noises will it rebound off the wall ?” Ben is just a normal teenager but he just doesn't have eyes to see. I never knew echolocation could help people that a blind could get them around place’s.

Mikaiah and Brodies Show not tell

1)

Emily overheard her sister Laura on the phone saying that they were going to the mall. Emily, ran into Laura’s room saying “Can I come? Can I come?”

Laura said “NO you're too young you don’t know what you’re doing.” Suddenly Emily went storming out swearing at her and slammed the door on Laura's face. She locked herself in her room and started punching holes in the wall kicking things, around and then left, to calm down.

Laura thought “Far man that girl is really spoilt and she wants to come with me?”


2)
Emily felt nervous about asking to go to the mall. Emilys heart was pounding as she went in to Laura room her legs started wobbling as she was so nervous she felt like she was going pee her pants and when Emily asked to go to the mall with Laura she said “sure i'll take you out for the day”

3)
Mary started jumping up and down because her sister Jan was taking her to the mall. Jan was waiting inside her car while Mary was looking for some fresh clothes in a bunch of dirty clothes. It took about half an hour for Mary just to get change by then Jan got very impatient with Mary. Jan started frowning and said “How long is that girl going to be?”if Mary had came out but every time Jan looked out she wasn't coming. Jan got very very angry, then started beeping the horn and started shouting at her to hurry up.


Mary was nervous to go to the mall with Jan, when she asked she said “Jan can I please come with you to the mall? As she asked Mary, Jans legs started shaking because she was so nervous. She was so nervous but when she heard a yes from Mary she just shocked with excitement started jumping up and down until she ran out of breath to be happy any more. When they got into the car she kept on saying thank you over and over again until they reached the mall.

Fia Fia night

Practising for Fia Fia is actually really fun but I bet performing on stage will be really nerve wracking and frustrating for me. The group that I joined is called Jump Jam. I joined Jump Jam because it’s a really fun activity to do. For Jump Jam you have to use a lot of energy and really strong moves too

Our costumes for our group is Army clothes for some and the other costume is Black T-shirts and pants, some of the front row people got to even wear mirror glasses which was really hard to see in at night time but it was still cool. We got some face paint and couple of bands to tie either on your head, arm or leg.

On the night of Fia Fia we had to go to our holding rooms at 6.00 pm so we can get changed because it started at 7.00 pm. In the mean we got to play on the computers or board games while we were waiting for Mr Burts call on the speakers. I was on the computers playing Running Fred.

It was time to go out and perform but we had to wait for about 7 or 8 groups until it was our groups turn to perform. When it was our turn I stood on the stage and the only thing that I heard was people shouting and screaming at us. I could only see lights because of the glasses but I still had a really exciting time at the Fia Fia night.
