Term 2 Goal Reflection

Here are my reflections on my term 2 learning goals.

why did the popcorn dance?

Have you ever wondered how t make the popcorn dance? Well me and some people from my class have done an experiment. There were allot of steps but it was really fun.

Firstly you fill a transparent glass three quarters of the way up.

Then you put two drops of food colouring in and stir.

Next you put in vinegar and lastly the kernels in. To finish of, you put in baking soda and away they go.

The popcorn kernels started jumping up and down it looked liked they were dancing. They started to go up and down.

The kernels went up and down because when they were at the bottom they got surrounded by bubbles and floated up. When they were above the surface the bubbles popped and the kernels went down. This is repeated until the baking soda ran out.

With all these ingredients there is a way to make popcorn dance. You can see it for yourself too

The Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) is a bird of prey found in North America. It is the national bird and symbol of the United States of America. This sea eagle has two known sub-species and forms a species pair with the White-tailed Eagle. Its range includes most of Canada and Alaska, all of the contiguous United States, and northern Mexico. It is found near large bodies of open water with an abundant food supply and old-growth trees for nesting.

In the late 20th century the Bald Eagle was on the brink of extirpation in the continental United States, while flourishing in much of Alaska and Canada. Populations recovered and stabilized, so the species was removed from the U.S. federal government's list of endangered species and transferred to the list of threatened species on July 12, 1995, and it was removed from the List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife in the Lower 48 States on June 28, 2007.

Bald Eagles are not actually bald. The name derives from the older meaning of the word, "white headed

this picture is of the planet my group made. we did uranus.

first we got a baloon and paper mached it. we did about 5 layers of it.

then we painted it with white 2 times. afer that we painted it what ever colour the planet was. as you can se we painted ours blue.

what i did well was making the colour we needed for the planet.

what i need to improve on is paper maching faster.

Dalmation

The Dalmation is breed of dog whose roots are often said to trace back to Dalmatia,a region of Croatia where the first illustrations of the dog have been found. The Dalmation is noted for its unique- or brown-spotted coat and was mainly used as a carriage dog in its early days. Today,this dog remains a well loved family pet and many dog enthusiasts enter their pets into

the compititions of many kennel clubs.

Gorillas

Gorillas are the largest extant species of primates. They are ground-dweling,predominantly herbivorous apes that inhabit the forests of central Africa. Gorillas are divided into two species and four or five subspecies. The DNA of gorillas is highly similar to that of a human,from 95-99 perscent depending on what is counted,and they are the next closest living relatives to humans after the two chimpanzee species.

i think gorillas are neat,they have big hands and they have big feet.

i would like to go to the zoo one day,and watch then run and watch them play.

they beat their chests with all there might,they beat them so hard it gives me a fright.

Animal survival

On thursday at Living Springs on we played animal survival. There were four animal groups and twelve stations. There was a big carnivore,big herbivores,small carnivores and last but not least small herbivores. All the animals had lives. The smaller you are the more lives you get. I was a small herbivore so I got the most lives. There was also rabies and the hunter. The hunter was Matua nathan and rabies was Hannah's Dad Terry.

Firstly the small herbivore got let out then the small carnivore and so on.

Then some of us hid and some of us went to the stations. I went to the stations.

Next rabies got let out unanounced. Jacob and I hid in a bush when we saw rabies. He didn't find us.

Lastly about 5 minutes before the game ended the hunter got let out but he never found us. Me,Jacob and some other people didn't get out.

I thought animal survival was really really fun and awesome. Next time i want to try to lose no lives.
