My DTE project post

 My DTE project post

For the last term we have been working on projects for dte we got to pick whether wanted to code a project on scratch or make a robot i picked coding a game on scratch. We were allowed to make any game we wanted on scratch i decided to make a game where you have to go through obstacles and if you touch a certain colour you reset. next time i would probably add more levels and more characters or possibly make a completely different game. Overal it was pretty fun even tho i didnt do as much as i wanted to.

The Springbok Tour Protests

The Springbok Tour Protests 

  1. What is another word for apartheid? Rule that separates black from white, Racism.

  2. Why did the protestors need helmets? Special long batons they would hit with and they would also get kicked violently

  3. Why do you think being called honorary whites upset the maori all blacks? Because whites wanted them to know whites were better

  4. Why was the hamilton rugby game cancelled? Anti tour protesters occupied the field chanting

  5. Do you think this protest was successful? Why? Why not? It wasn’t successful because many was injured but at the same time some people got the message

  6. How do you think the New Zealand protests helped Nelson Mandela? The protest helped Nelson Mandela get the message

Effect of heat

Effect of heat

Contraction: Opposite of explode goes in not out. For our experiment we got a soda can filled it up alittle bit got a bunsen burner filled it up got a ice cream box filled up with cold water once the can was steaming we put the can in the ice cream box and the can imploded 

Expansion: Get bigger. Ball and hoop test at the start the ball could go through we got a bunsen burner heated up the ball and then tryed putting the ball through the hoop and it didn't fit through unlike earlier

Conduction: Heat going through a solid. We got 5 pins put some vase;ine on the pins put it onto a peice of metal got a bunsen burner put it at the end of the metal and see how long it took for the pins to fall off the heat melting the vaseline

Convection through liquid: Is the same as conduction but transfered through a gas or liquid. Crystal experiment we got a mini dish thing filled it with warm water got some small crystals and a straw put the crystals through the straw and waited to see how long it would take the the crystals to cover the dish thing 

Convection through gas: We got a tea bag cut the top off took the tea leafes out propped it up got a match lit it on fire and this was meant to lift the tea bag off the ground but certain tea bags work with this but ours didn't work
