LEARNZ chat

LEARNZ chat
Hello,
On the 19 March 2019 Room 3, 4, and 5 went into Room 3 to Have a chat with LEARNZ. Students from Mt Hut primary, O.L.A. ( our school ), and lots of other schools. Here are some of the facts that we learnt:
  • Fossil water exists
  • We will never run out water
  • People can change saltwater into freshwater; this process is called desalination
  • There is a minimum flow for the Rakaia river
  •  They move water from one river to another river that has dried up
  • West Auckland has put traps in their waterways to stop rubbish from flowing further down Stream.
  • Special feed for cows and animals because it is better for our waterways.
  • McKenzie pollution is really bad.
As you can see, we learnt alot.
See you next time!

The Spaghetti - Marshmellow Challenge

The Spaghetti - Marshmallow Challenge Kia Ora everyone,  I hope you have enjoyed my blogs so far. This post will be about the science challenge that we did today. The materials were pretty limiting. We only had: 1 meter of string 1 meter of tape 20 spaghetti sticks 1 marshmallow We had to craft a tower in only 18 minutes! The first plan for my team was: Step 1: Make a square base Step 2: Make spikes from all the corners of the base Step 3: Stick the spaghetti sticks into the marshmallow Step 4: stick four spaghetti sticks into the marshmallow, outwards Step 5: around the top of the outwards-pointing sticks, make a square base Step 6: Put a cross connecting the corners of the higher square Unfortunately when it came time for judging, the marshmallow made our tower lean, then fall over! I hope that I have inspired you to create something like this and be creative! Adele P.S: Here is the photos of my partners & the tower!
