What did you learn about ?
I learnt … that there are some situation where you got to think of the positives and the negatives of it.

When discussing “Thought Challenges” what did you notice about yourself?
When I think I often react both Positive and Negative.
Here is an example of one situation I've been in

Challenging Thoughts

SCENARIO    / NEGATIVE    / THOUGHT CHALLENGER    / POSITIVE

My Friends making me cry/ I’ll just sit here and cry/ Will I let this thought control my life/ Nah I got better things to do instead of listening to them

What solutions can you try when you face a challenge during the Business & Enterprise kete?
Here is an example that I had in year 7

Step one ->You want to make pom pom balls and I want to make glow in the dark mini jars

Step two->We will just make another Idea -We can make both

P

Step three->Take a long time to come to an agreement -More time wasted doing two

Step four->We ended up making pom pom balls ( Because a certain staff member didn’t like my design)

Step Five->We will start the planning next time

Digestive system : Science: Updated

Mouth:

• The mouth is used for digest food
• We use our teeth to chomp down the food

Oesophagus:

• It is a chub that sends the processed food down

Why do we have a mouth?: To chomp down all the food so it can go down the oesophagus and so on.

What else do you do with your mouth?: It moves and makes you talk and taste

Moko A.K.A Maori Tatto's ( Social Stidies)

In Social Studies we are learning about  Maori Europeans and we are focusing on the topic of Moko ( Maori Tatto's) I learned that the left side of the face means it's the mother side and the right is the fathers. The most confused bit of the whole this is the drawing part. I also learnt to be able to have a face tattoo back then you have to be strong. (I don't know why I do ghoul eyes)

English: Matrix for Myths, Legends, Fables and Tales : Updated

LO->Students will understand that traditional stories show aspect of different cultures.

In English, we are learning to understand and find the meaning of stories

My story I chose was The Monkey and the Turtle ( Which is a fable). There are different tasks to show your learning so these are some links of how I showed my learning with this story...

Haiku:

The monkey is mean,

He threw away all the greens,

The turtle is sad.

Monkey is hungry,

But the turtle is helping,

In the end it’s bad

Why do you think the author created this story? Mybye they wanted a diffrent storyline than the others

What is the purpose (reason) for writing this story? To teach a moral.

What is the author trying to explain? Don't steal other peoples stuff or you will be punished later on.

What did the characters learn? Don't do bad things or you will be punished.

How did the characters grow or change? Spoiler: One charter dies ( Got cut up) and the other drowns

Why did the characters act this way? Because the other one stole there fruit.

Why do you think the story came into existence? Because the author wanted moral and a different type of story.

What did you learn about the Philippines from reading the story? That you will be punished if you do a bad thing.

What do you think the purpose of this story is? For a diffrent type of story and a moral.

Why do you think this story is important to the people of the Philippines? Don't do bad thing because you will get punished later.

What could I do better?:
Make it pop with different colours instead of keeping it the same one every time. ( especially the background)

One thing I might change about this story is the ending it's too brutal. I would make the Monkey have karma until he dies of natural courses.

What was the first video game to come out?

in 1972 the first game to get a hit is a game named Pong. The only console that you can play it on is the Atari 2600. It is a game about moving your moving your cursor to get the slides to bounce back the moving square -- it will speed up as you progress through it. The game was only selled in Sears (it even had there logo on the console.)



The first Pong game to come on to PC was in 1977. Then Nintendo continued to develop and introduce new game consoles. Other companies, such as Sega and Sony, created their own home video game systems.

Food Test : Science

Testing for Simple Sugars- The Benedict's Test

Aim:
I want to find out how to test for simple sugars

Equipment:

• Bunsen Bunner
• Test tube tongs
• Benedict's Solution
• Food Sample
• Test tubes
• Safty Glasses

Method:

1. Place about 2mL of the food sample into the test tube then add 5 drops of Benedict's Solution
2. Gently heat the test tube over a blue flame. DO NOT BOIL!!

Result:

A positive test for a simple sugars results in the Benedict's Solution changing form a Blue colour to a Yellow colour to an Orange/Red colour.

Conclusion:

When you heated the chemicals it went the colours down of the rainbow starting from Blue and went down but normally it would stop at orange but if your lucky and it didn't expold you would get red.

Testing for Complex Sugars- The Iodine Test

Aim:

I want to find out if a simple of food contains complex sugars.

Equipment:

• Test tube
• Food Sample
• Iodine Solution

Method:

1. Place about 2mL of the sample in a test tube.
2. Add 3-5 drops of iodine and mix.

Results:

If complex sugars (i.e starch) are present the iodine solution will change from a brown colour to a blue/black colour.

If the iodine solution does not change colour then no complex sugars are present.

Conclusion:

We used breed for this and indeed it had complex sugars because it turned black.

 Testing for Protein-The Biuret Test

Aim:

To test if a sample of food contains protien.

Equipment:

• Test tube
• Sodium hydroxide( NaOH) 
• Copper sulfate ( CuSO4) 
• Food Sample

Method:

1. Place about 2mL of the sample into a test tube and add 5 drops of sodium hydroxide.
2. Add 5 drops of copper sulfate.
3. Shake the test tube gently from side to side.

Results:

If the solution remains blue, then no protein is present. If the solution changes to a purple colour then protein is present in the sample.

Conclusion:

The liquids chances from to orange/Yellow to Green to Purple, but my group took its time and we got the formula out of place so we ended up using the teachers we got a video of it but it's not family friendly.

Maori Culture Prior to European: Maori Weaving ( Social Studies)

Social Studies Maori Culture Prior to European: Maori Weaving

( Can't really see it but I will add the information to it at the end of this post)

LO-> To understand the life of Maori prior to Europeans arriving and it's connection to today's society.

What was your research about? My topic is Maori Weaving

2 Things you found interesting? They have so many different names for it and that's it so far

2 Things you thought you did well?  The layout and the glueing

Something you want to do differently? Didn't have time to make it colourful.

Infomation from up top:

Types of weaving:

• Tāniko – a technique used to decorate the borders of fine garments, as well as bird cages, bird traps, and eel baskets. Tāniko is similar to European twining. These days tāniko is used to make belts, purses, bodices, armbands, headbands, and bandoliers.
• Arapaki or tukutuku – ornamental latticework, usually found adorning the walls of wharenui.
• Piupiu – the art of making a flax garment worn around the waist.
• Whatu – the weaving technique known as the ‘cloak weave’, used to produce fabric.
• Whiri – various forms of plaiting used to make poi, waist girdles, and headbands.
• Raranga – one of the weaving styles used to make kete (bags and baskets).

At first, Māori women used flax in the same way they had used the pandanus plant in Polynesia – weaving baskets, containers and mats from the leaves. They then learned to get the strong fibre (muka) from the leaves by scraping the green flesh away with a sharp shell. The muka was pounded until it was soft, then washed and sometimes dyed. Twisted, plaited and woven, it was used to create a wide range of items, such as fishing nets and traps, footwear, cords and ropes.

There are two different clothing for men and women using flax fibre, kiekie, silk thread, leather, and pāua shell

:maro (a piece of clothing covering worn around the waist for men) and a Bodice ( piece of clothing that covers the body)

Blog refection about Resilience : Health

What did you learn about?: 
I learnt that people give up easily.
My favourite saying connected to resilience is... "Resilience is accepting your new reality, even if it's less good than the one you had before."

Was there anything you felt difficult to understand? Why?:
It was difficult to understand information about… Nothing was hard for me because I know the meaning of resilience.

How did you relate to the video “Who Moved My Cheese”?:
The video “Who moved my Cheese” is about… 4 charter named sniff, scurry ( mouses) Hem and how ( Humans) finding cheese every day but it kept dispersing so sniff and scurry ran to a different location to find the cheese meanwhile Hem and Haw just stayed there for a couple of days until Haw just ran and found another spot and made notes on where to turn to find that location. So sniff, scurry and Haw just waited until Hew got the message. And that was basically it.
Link to it
I related to it because Sometimes I give up but I try again.

How can you apply your new knowledge to the Business Kete?:

I will be Resilent even when the business work is hard.

I wonder how long does hair grow back on your head?

It takes 3 day before the stubble begins to appear but, if you want to have the hair below then it will take 2-3 or even 6 months, It grows a half an inch every month. Hair can grow up to 3 to 5 inches in one week.


If you can't wait for your hair to grow back here is a website for your hair to grow faster
