Projects

By Anonymous -
For projects we had a choice between trying for a science badge, and working in our school science fair. Harrison and I are working together on our experiment where we test which bridge can hold the most weight. The contest is between the warren truss, the deck truss and the beam bridge. We believe the deck truss will be able to hold the most weight.

For our second Immersion my group were with Liv . We were working on adding more detail in our school. We went on a small trip to the high school  to take photos of what we wanted in our own school. On the second day we split of into groups and were all given a photo that we took at the high school. The point of the excercise was to write about what we saw in the photo's. On the third day we got to draw a symbol or what we thought described our school the best. I drew a griffin above clouds to represent the school motto; reach for the sky.

The rusty nail: Immersion work

By Anonymous -
The rusty nail On the 15 of June 2017, a quarter of lc7's class learnt chemistry. One of the exercises was to put a nail in a glass of salt water, and another in glass of fresh water. We had to write up a hypothesis of what we thought would rust faster, and I thought salt would. We waited five days, recording different changes that we saw, and on the fifth day took the nails out. most of the class, even the LA was surprised to realize that fresh water actually rusted faster. This was a surprise to me, for as our LA Nicole said when you take your boat out of the ocean you rinse it down with fresh water. So this was rather puzzling.

On Tuesday the 19th of September Lc7, Lc4 and Lc2 went to Auckland live. We participated in three workshops. In the first one we learnt about theatre and all the different roles. We got to act in a short play and got to choose a role to play in the play. (Pun unintentional)  I acted as a witch.     In the next workshop we watched another presentation although this one was about listening. The act was about someone who had eaten a pack of biscuits that was meant for someones birthday. There was only one left and the person who ate the packet was told to guard the last biscuit. It was really interesting the way they used noises to show what the person was thinking and how they felt. In the end she ate the cookie anyway. For the final workshop we had to follow the leader. That was basically all we did. We got to see some of the new inventions for the people who can't walk and some of us got even go on them.
