Team tui LCS expo

For L.C.S this term we worked on making and learning about our culture groups traditional clothing or accessories. We had a choice if we wanted to either partner up or work on our own. Me and Kaedyns chose to create a Pale fuiono that is a traditional head piece from Samoa. We had to research about the past and history on the country and then search for information on our item.

GTS Matariki Festival 2023

 

 

Yesterday GTS had hosted a Matariki festival. First thing we had done as a whole school was watch the performances in the hall. We had 4 schools come down to perform their kapa haka group. The schools were Glenbrae, Glendowie primary, Best start and Pt England. Once we had watched all the amazing performances we had went off to our classes to welcome the family’s to the learning we had worked on the past term. We had various activities hosted around the school in each class. There was also various food items sold around the school. 

All about Rome

This is my all about Rome work. I enjoyed learning about Rome as I learn’t more than I knew.

Air pressure experiment

Title: Air pressure experiment 

Purpose:

To understand air pressure.

Hypothesis/Prediction (What I think will happen and why?)

My hypothesis is that the air pressure from the hair dryer will make the ping pong ball float. The reason I think it will float is because the air will be pressing against the light ball that will lift the ball making it float.

I think all that would happen is that the ping pong ball will just float depending on the pressure of the air.

Equipment/Materials

A hair dryer and a ping pong ball.

Method

Grab a hair dryer, and a ping pong ball. Basically all you need to do is plug the hair dryer in, place the ball on top then turn it on. Now the ping pong ball should float.

Discussion

Once I plugged the hair dryer in and turned it on. I put the ping pong ball on it and it started floating. Once it floats for an average amount of time it starts to stay stiff in the air.
