Earth Layers Model | Science

 Earth Layers

Aim: To make a project that explains each layer. 

Method

  • I will make half earth, which shows each layer of the earth. 
  • I will make the base which is half earth.
  • after I made the half earth, I will glue them together to make a solid base. 
  • paint the crust witch is the land and the water of the earth, the mantle, the outer core, and the inner core. 

For this topic, I will be making the Earth layers. this will be describing what the earth inside will look like, and how the layers were ordered. I will also describe what each layer is made of. I made a replica of the earth layer by layer after layer of glue and newspaper. each layer of the earth is getting hotter and hotter, the mantle is the molten rocks due to the hotness of the core. the outer core is a full molten iron and nickel. 84% of the death is the mantle. we also reach this down when we dig 6 km down to reach the mantle.

Earth has been around for billions of years, and eventually, the earth will die in billions of more years. this earth won't last forever,

Kiwi Fruit DNA | Science

 Aim: To get the DNA of the kiwi fruit.

Method:

  1. Mush half a kiwi fruit in a ziplock bag with a splash f water and a small teaspoon of salt. 
  2. Strain the solution through a cloth into a beaker.
  3. Add a squirt of dishwashing liquid and stir. 
  4. Pour into the test tube.
  5. Place the test tube in a beaker filled with WARM water.
  6. Slowly pour 5mL of methylated spirits down the side of the test tube. 
Picture: 




Discussion: Where did the DNA come from? the DNA came from the kiwi fruit we waited a few minutes to settle the mixture of salt and the much kiwi fruit.  after 1o minutes we added the 5mL of methylated spirits and wait for the reaction to happen we slowly can see the type of slime kind and that is the DNA of the kiwi Fruit. 
Conclusion: this actually works, I get to learn the DNA of the kiwi fruit. I've also known that DNA is in layer and layer before you can actually see the DNA properly. DNA is inside the nucleus.

Wind Racer

Aim: To make the most efficient wind racer which would either go the furthest or looks the most creative. 

Method: 

  • Gather all your equipment
  • Set up your trolley and your bamboo stick, by placing the stick in the hole. 
  • Cut a plastic bag into a partially large rectangle a size that would suit the stick. 
  • Repeat with newspaper or paper. 
  • Tape your first rectangle to the rod.
  • Repeat with your other material. 
  • After use sticks to create a structure for the sail, we used skewers but you can use another material. - Since we used a whole newspaper page, we stuck 2 skewers together from the ends. Making it longer. 
    • Stick one pair at the top and another one at the bottom
    • Depending on the size of your sail and rod place one or two pairs in the middle too. 
  • After, make sure everything is secure by using tape in places that are weak. 
  • Finally, decorate to make the appearance look more appealing. 

Equipment: Newspaper, plastic bag, tape, trolley, bamboo/metal rod, skewers.

Result: Lego Challenge–Wind Racers – The Lego Librarian

Discussion: Pull and friction were acting for the push and stop, but 2 more forces are pushing to each other to not fly the wind racer up or pulled down in the center of the earth. Gravity, and support.

Conclusion: I thought at first the this won't work at all, but when we tried it out is actually pretty cool to do, and it definitely works.

News Article About the Pacific Ocean | Social Studies

 Hello, for today I will talk about the problem in the Eastern Pacific Ocean. there are lots and lots of plastic in the Pacific Ocean and it creates multiple pollutions. and it's called the plastic patch. 

The problem in this scenario is that fish are being killed by this plastic patch. after decades in the ocean, this will turn into a plastic soup, this is created by the thousand of plastic being turn into a small piece of plastic and turn into millions of small particles of plastic. small fish think that this plastic is food. but in reality, this plastic might be the last thing they will eat. so the main problem here is that more plastic is being made as time goes. in 2050 there might be 50% of clean water and 50% of garbage in the sea and more and more fish will die. 

This affects the fishes that live deep down. the courses of this are that fish, other animals, and we will be affected by this. because the water around the world might have pieces of plastic in it. even the water we drink. we get fresh water because of the seawater and the sun is the one who is providing us some freshwater. 

The solution is that we need to stop making plastic and use a material that can recycle and easy to break down, maybe in the future we can make this happen. or we just have to not throw lots of garbage in the ocean.

Esol | Holiday Trip

We are currently reading a book that talks about a trip, so I will talk about my trip to Milford for today. 

In the new year, we went on a trip to Dunedin. But I didn't expect that we would also go to Milford. In Dunedin, we were so tired and. And a friend of ours let us sleep in their house. So the next day, we hit the road and headed to Milford. At the start, I didn't know where we would go. Not until I saw lots of falls one after another, lots and lots of them showed up. “ You know why there are lots of falls right now? “ my sister told me. And I said ‘why?’, she said: “ well it just rains earlier so lots of water will pour down and that creates the falls”. Then later we arrived at Milford. Later that a big boat will show us around Milford and show us the big falls. And I also saw some dolphins, they were fast.
