8 Tips of water safety

 

What do we need to remember to be safe in the ocean or a pool?

Swim where there is a Lifeguard

Gymnastics

 Today  my focus is  Frontflip

Before We've been doing gymnastics I was scared to turn my body down and like backflip and frontflip, because Im too fat that's why I can do backflip or frontflip. So it was first class in P.E in our gymnastics. First I was just watching my friend backflipping and front flipping on the mini-tramp. Suddenly my friend name Kush told me to try on the mini-tramp, I was so scared and nervous because I don't know when I jump what gonna happened to me like gonna break my bones or like break my back. But when I try it once I didn't expect that I'm gonna do it nothing gonna hurt my body. I frontflip not perfect but at least I try it and not scared to do it.

Aim Next Year gymnastics P.E

Next year I choose P.E because it helps my body fit and exercise, So I decide next year on gymnastics I can frontflip standing, because not I can frontflip but I can't stand back, so that's my aim next year is to frontflip standing.

My activities from today:

1. Trampoline
2. Mini tramp
3. Beem

Here is a video of me practising a frontflip

Electricity

Static Electricity

A build-up of electrical charges on an object

Current Electricity

A flow of electric charge.

Electrical Charge

electrical particles that are negatively charged

Circuit

A system that provides a pathway for electrical current to flow through

Cell

Supplies energy to a circuit, by pushing current from the positive to the negative end

Voltmeter

A device used to measure voltage, or electrical potential energy difference

Ammeter

A device used to measure current in a circuit

Wire

a thin, flexible thread of metal

Resistor

An electrical device that resists the flow of electrical current

Bulb

In a circuit, this shows if electricity is flowing by lighting up

Switch

a device that opens or closes a circuit

Battery

A device that converts chemical energy to electrical energy

1- Fill in the table

	Static electricity	Current electricity
What is it caused by?	The imbalance between negative and positive charges in an object	An atom usually has the same number of protons  (which have a positive charge) and electrons (which have a negative charge)
Do the negative charges move?	Negative charges can move freely from one object to another	An electric circuit is caused by the movement of the charges through the conductors of the circuit.
Does it power appliances?	Electricity usage monitor that tells you exactly how many kWh a device or appliance is drawing.	If the electricity provided is desired to do work, the load/appliance can be placed at the middle of the electric circuit

2- What are some examples of static electricity:

1. If you rub your shoe on the carpet, your body collects extra electrons

2. When you touch the playground your body get static electricity.

3. Walking across the carpet and touching a metal door handle and pulling your hat off and having your hair stand on end.

4. When you jump on the trampoline get electricity static.

Write up for a Van der Graaff experiment:

How does the Van der Graaff machine work?

A Van de Graaff generator pulls electrons from the Earth, moves them along a belt and stores them on the large sphere. These electrons repel each other and try to get as far away from each other as possible, spreading out on the surface of the sphere.

What was one of the experiments they did with the machine?

Is when they hold there hands on the machine and the machine is turning on and the static is all in there body.

Describe what happened, what did you see?

I see when my friend standing there holding the machine and the static was all in there body and their hair was standing up because of the electricity coming on their body.

Why did you see this happen?

Because my friend wanna try it and There hair went up because of the electricity going in there body and the static. I saw the teacher holding the small machine ball and he touches it to the big machine and it static and there is like a static light and the sound is loud.

Explain how lightning happens linking  to the ideas of static electricity

Often lightning occurs between clouds or inside a cloud. As the storm moves over the ground, the strong negative charge in the cloud attracts positive charges in the ground. These positives charges move up into the tallest objects like trees, telephone poles and houses.

Bullying at school

Why do bullies behave badly? Because they don't like that person and they don't want them in school because of life or something like he's better than us at maths or other subjects.

What are bullies hiding when they pretend they don’t care? They say that they were not bullying him and people who watch are bystanders who just look at them and not standing for them and not taking action.


What is important to keep in mind the next time you meet a bully? Don’t be scared of them if they say mean things, call the teacher and stand by yourself and don't get scared of them and don't get hurt.

Reflection and Refraction

Definition

Reflection
The bouncing back of a wave when it hits a surface through which it cannot pass.

Refraction
The bending of a wave as it passes at an angle from one medium to another

Incident ray
Incoming ray

Reflected Ray
the light ray that bounces off a surface

Refracted Ray
The Ray that has bent as it enters a new medium

Normal line
An imaginary line is drawn perpendicular to the surface of a mirror or any surface

Angle
The amount of bending that a light ray experiences 

Complete the sentences using the following keywords:

Reflection   light   reflected    normal   same    incidence

When Lights hits a mirror, the angle at which it hits is the Incidence as the angle at which it is Reflected. Scientists called this the Law of Reflection. Incorrect science terms, the Reflection Law states that the angle of Normal is equal to the angle of Same when measured from the Reflection.

Diagram

Research Task:

1. What is a periscope? Is an optical instrument that uses a system of prisms, Lenses or mirrors to reflect images through a tube. 
2. How does it work? Light from a distant object strikes the top mirror and is then reflected at an angle of 90 degrees down the periscope tube.
3. Draw and label a periscope?
   
   

Fitness Reflection

How do you take notice and connect to the natural world around your yard or in a nearby park or reserve where you walk for exercise, (15-20 minutes)


For me, in the morning I always walk outside and doing some exercise and doing some biking outside with my brother and sister, We even play football, basketball, dodgeball, volleyball. it's fun because playing outside and getting fresh air.
