about the science experiments

On Friday the 9th term 2 we did a experiment on tornadoes there were groups in my group was Tema Ricky juzaiah and ken we all worked in a group but sometimes we would fight even we would disagree  with one another but we would fix it and help each other.

on the first day of doing it our teacher explained what we had to do she told us that we had to get a big card board piece and glue pieces of paper on to the card board plat form. it took so long to glue it on but we finally finished when we did we had to make the labels the labels were results, research, question, equipment and method we had to white all the labels onto our chrome books then we had to tell our teacher to print it 

she printed them all out.

we had to cut them all out and glue them onto the card board then we had to do the exciting experiment

the thing we needed was salt, baking soda, washing power and big bottles 3x.

the first bottle was to put 1/3 cup of salt into the first bottle the second bottle was to but baking soda then the last bottle was washing power then..... SHAKE!!! yup we shook that up until all the consistency was mixed all up then we made tornado with it how to make a tornado all you have to do is to turn the bottle upside down and twist it like this here is some examples from some students.

have you ever been in a tornado well i haven't but the people who have is the people that are the south Auckland as you know on the news there was one person that sadly passed away but two people were injured and taken to the hospital all though people were scared terrified and didn't know where to go.   

This is my wits poster that we made but theirs a twist in steed of English i dd it in Samoan because of Samoan language week with the help of my Samoan teacher. so basically the wits poster is about your self like the first one is walk away and the second is ignore three rd is tell teacher and last is stop so yeah. its been a blast for this year. so have a good Samoan language....... by: Ashley ainea

 Have you ever seen a volcano erupt? Well On Monday kea was lucky enough to do an amazing science experiment that miss bound showed us. the ingredients was baking soda dish washing liquid food coloring and vinegar when miss finished she also told us what type of volcanoes like cinder cone, composite, lava,dome, shield my group did the shield in my group was Belinda SJ margaux asi yon and me the first step was to get a lot of sand and shape it into a volcano shape it took a lot of tries because there was a lot of cracks in it  we had to go get some water to fix it when we poured it into the volcano the volcano collapsed and we had an idea we got a lot of water and poured it into the volcano we got more sand and mixed it

We shaped it and made a whole at the top to put the small  cup in it then we went to go get more sand and put it into the box that we made the volcano in after we just had to shape it we told out teacher to come and check it out she said that she will come and bring the items she came with the ingredients she first put in baking soda then one full cup of vinegar food coloring and then dish washing liquid we mixed it and then poured it in the cup of the ingredients then we waiting……. OUT it went, the volcano exploded. We waited for what my teacher said she wanted to take a picture with us. We took a picture and had a little play with the volcano. We could not break it because the other kids wanted to play with it. We finished and went to go look at the other kids volcano .

We went to go look and my friends mele uhilas one we saw that she was just doing the shaping with her group in her group was henna lumi sarah tailta and aaliyah we wanted to help them so they could do the exploding part she said thanks for helping so we left to go watch other group doing the exploding part.

We finished and mall told us to come watch my other teacher we went to go watch my other teacher do the coca cola experiment we waited for the other kids to come and watch then he put the mentos in i thought that the coke bottle was going to go up but when he tried to close it it went all over him we all laughed and then we went back to class t learn more.
