Visiting Music Suite

Hi everyone, in Week 7 on Thursday we visit the Music Suite for our music session.But first our teacher have to split us half in a groups, so me and my friends are going there in a second half of the period. When we're waiting we have to practise our stomp performance until the end of period 3. When it's time for us to have go and visit the music suite we have to bring a pencil or pen and nothing else. I had fun going in there because I saw a lot of different instrumental like Electric guitar, Acoustic guitar, drums, keyboard ( if you're using the keyboard you can have a chance and play the song Havana), piano, flute,ukulele and saxophone. If you're exploring the music suite you also have to answer the quiz with your partner  that Mrs. Beer gave, it's only all about which family instrumental those the instrument goes to and what can you see in the room that you're into because each room has different instrument in it. If you and your partner done every question you can give it to Mrs. Beer and she's going to check, and every correct answer you'll get 1 stamp so me and my friend got 8 stamp each. When you're done you can explore the music suite until the bell goes, I had a lot of fun exploring it even though I wasn't able to try some of the instrument but after all I learn a lot about the other instrument in the music suite.

Instrumental Music

Today for our Music lesson we are learning about different instrumental families like example the string family, orchestra,percussion, woodwind and the brass family,also the teacher show us the definition of the different families and also some videos of the different members of the family. After we have done watching the videos and learning the definition we have to make a presentation that will include the definition but only in our own words, that's why we need to listen to the teacher properly.
 Also at the last part of the slide there's a Music Biography thingy just like what we did last time it also included the name and challenges in their life. It was really fun hope you like it.
Here is the presentation:

Water Cycle- Science

Hurumanu: The Water Cycle


AIM: TO LOOK AT THE WATER CYCLE AND HOW CLIMATE CHANGE IS AFFECTING IT.

Definition:



A green box with icons and white text. Text reads: Where is Earth's Water? 96.5 percent is in the oceans; 1.7 percent is in lakes, rivers, streams, and soil; 1.7 percent is in polar ice caps, glaciers, and permanent snow; 0.001 percent is in water vapor in Earth's atmosphere

Scientific words:


  • Evaporation. When water is heated by radiant energy it turns into water vapor.
  • Transpiration. Evaporation from plants.
  • Condensation. When water vapor cools, molecules join together and form clouds.
  • Precipitation. When clouds get heavy the waters falls as rain, sleet, hail, or snow.
  • Acidification: the action or process of making or becoming acidic.

We will be conducting an experiment that looks at the different ways that climate change is affecting the water cycle.
An illustration of the water cycle showing how water travels from rivers and streams to clouds to snow and back again

THE WATER CYCLE EXPERIMENT

Bag 1: Normal Water cycle
Bag 2: Water cycle with CO2 added: like Oceans in climate change
Bag 3: Water cycle with ice added: like Antarctica in climate change

Material:

  1.  Plastic bag
  2.  Vivid Marker
  3.  1 cup water
  4.   2 drops of food colouring
  5. Litmus paper ( only for the soda water )

Steps:


  1. First thing you have to do was to get a plastic bag and get a vivid pen.  
  2.  The second thing you do was you have to draw on the plastic bag.
  3.  The third thing you have to do was put water on the plastic but not too much.
  4.  After you have put the water in your plastic bag you need to put food colouring  on it but only 2 drops
  5. The last thing you have to do was to stick the bag on the window.

Findings: 

In my opinion the water will moist in the bag and it will be a bit foggy in the top, and I also think the water will became less - Evaporation.

For the second there would be more air forming in the plastic bag because when you blow a balloon it will fill up with air, if we did this right the yellow paper will became red.

Conclusion: 

In science my group told me that they we're looking at the water cycle, and they learn 4 new words that was about evaporation.They did some research and the have to find out the definition of the water cycle and they have to include the new 4 words that they had learn. In their experiment they include a lot of stuff like the zip lock bag, in the zip lock bag they have to draw the water cycle in the drawing there a piece of a land, in that land there a tree, it has ocean,clouds, the sun, and the rain. It look's really fun doing this experiment and I want to learn more about it.
In the second one it was also the same but there's  a special paper called Litmus paper and when we check it the paper will become red.
