Science Fair TAKE 3

Abigail and I have decided (once again) to change our science fair topic on grass seeds. Our question will be something on the lines of What type of grass seeds grow the fastest and the best?
And yes Miss Morall, i know its a WHAT question, but its not comparing brands, its comparing types of the same brand and you never said we couldn't do that.......
This is what we think it might look something like this...
Yeah just pretend those brown squares are pots OK? umm yeah that's my amazing drawing skills coming though...
So that's defiantly what we are doing science fair on are we are pretty sure this time!
Comment!

Science Fair!

In room 7 we are doing a Science Fair. I am working with AW but we are still not shore on what to pick for our topic. :/ We thought about doing a volcano diagram, but we thought it would be to plain.Then we had an awesome idea of How To Make A Home-made bomb. So we asked miss Morrall. She said no :( And that sucks because we really wanted to blow up the school! :(
Anyways, so me and AW are now thinking of doing What Brand Of Bubble Gum Makes The Biggest Bubble? So yeah. If you want great tips on how to pick a topic for your science project, go to http://www.sciencebob.com

If you have any ideas please let us know and leave a comment! :)

What I have learnt this week:

On Wednesday, the year 7 and 8s had sports options. A group of about 15 girls (and one boy, but unfortunately for him will soon be lady as he is in a gym where Woman Find Strength.) Emphasis on the "Women" part. Any way, so we all went to Contours Gym. We learnt a really cool way to get fit and that's the amazing fitness program called Zumba. It really fun and active way to get fit in your own home of at a gym. We danced to about 6 or 7 different songs. They were really groovy Mexican dance songs and were a fun way to move around. I found doing Zumba really awesome and i would defiantly recommend it to people who want to lose weight. This session would probably be my favourite so far cause is was actually fun exercising, but the other two sessions aren't so much fun. I wish id have given 100% to this work out because i thought it was fun, but i really want to get more fit and do it again. Next time ill be sure to do 100%. ;)

Chinese Video Dialogue








This is a Chinese video filmed by AC and SL. We have said hello, our names, greeted each other, asked for telephone numbers, asked what food and drink we like and saying goodbye. We think that we need to improve on our tones, pronunciation, and trying to not to look at the piece of paper with what we need to say. Although we have to improve on these things, we think we did a pretty good job on the video. I think [Sophie] that this is a great video, and i think i improved on my Chinese during these few terms. Me think [Anthea] that we did do a really good job for a beginner but i do agree with Sophie that we need to learn our lines better so we don't have to look at a piece of paper. It did take a lot of trys to get this right, but this is a great video for someone who has just started learning Chinese, last term. :) ENJOY!

SAMS Learner T-shirt

In room 7, we have been creating our very own SAMS learner t-shirts. We had to draw images that relate to Explorer, Self-manager, Ccommunicator, Thinker, and Contributor.. We also were aloud to choose a couple of words to have on it. For
Explorer I have drawn Green coloured paw prints going around the page and I have also drawn a map with a magnifying glass on a map of New Zealand. Its brown for the map and Green for New Zealand. I have choose these colours because i thought that having green paw prints was very creative, because animals don't usually have green paws, and i did New Zealand green because i thought it would suit it really well.
For Self-Manager I drew a piece of paper and a pencil and some history and a science book. i choose to do a light pale pink colour for the piece of paper because i didn't just want to leave it white because that would be boring. :) For Communicator i drew a telephone, a facebook sign, and a MSN sign.
For Communicator i did a telephone, a facebook sign and a MSN sign because they are all ways of communicating, through internet, and telephone. I choose to do them that colour because i thought it would really suit my t-shirt.
For Thinker, i drew a big bold orange question mark because thinking can really be anything and you can think abouth anything at all. I chose orang because its a colour that really stands out.
And Contributor. I drew a stick figure of a girl and a boy playing together and lots of people holding hands around the world. I chose all these bright colours because it helps make a statement. So if you really wanted to get a message across, people would notice the bright colours. :)
