Physics

Today Anna and I did the independent physics task.  Our hypothesis wasn't correct because we guessed that the tennis ball would roll faster on the wooden walk-way. The tennis ball rolled on the concrete the quickest. The times were: carpet time: 2.85 seconds, wooden walk-way time: 2.65 seconds and finally the concrete time: 2.35 seconds. So as you can see our hypothesis wasn't correct.  We believe that the concrete was smoother than the wooden walk-way, and this is why we got the results we did.  The concrete had less friction to slow the tennis ball down than the wooden walk-way.

Cartooning

Today I did CARTOONING with the one the only KERRY!  Today I did one member of the 2011 winning R.W.C team the N. Z ALL BLACKS which was BRAD THORNE! Anyway as I was saying we all had to draw a cartoon or photo image of an All Black player of a All Black coach. I am so sorry that I don't have a picture but I didn't draw the picture on the computer I drew the picture in my work book. Any way I had an AMAZING ten minutes drawing so all I have left to say is : Why don't you give cartooning a try I'm sure you'll be amazed at what you will see. :)

Debating

Today we did debating with Alana as a workshop. There are two teams. One team would be the affirmative team and the other a negative team. I was on the affirmative team. Today we had to debate on saying yes man kind is good or no man kind is bad. The negative team won because they had talked to each other and thought about what they were going to say and thought carefully, were as my group just put there ideas down without talking to each others.
BUT THAT WAS FUN!!!
