Immersion highlight

Today is the first day of term 3.The theme is healthy me healthy you. That means the teachers did a video or a live play. My highlight of the morning was the team 5 play because it was about the Olympics. The countries competing were USA, NZ and Australia. One of the teachers did a act. The first people to go was Australia. My favourite was USA because Mr Moran was using hoo-la hoops and couldn't spin them very well. My next highlight was the song at the beginning that Mr J sang and 4 teachers dancing to it. The song was an adaption to knowing you, knowing me because the theme is healthy me healthy you.

Bubbles at Tamaki

 Today at tech we made bubbles and tried to do tricks with them.

Task 1 Science behind bubbles Made out of  soap  Water Thin layer of soap and air Three layers soap water and air Can’t make bubbles with just water. Different sizes All the same shape All round If the air gets out the bubble pops

Task 2 Bubble tricks The caterpillar: more bubbles connected to make a caterpillar A bubble carousel:2 medium sized bubbles with small ones around Cube bubble: bubble with 4 bubbles around and get a straw and blow in the middle

Experiment Purpose:  Prepare bubble-making liquid following a tried and true recipe Equipment A set of scales 250ml beaker A calibrated syringe A stirring rod Ingredients Table sugar Glycerol Kitchen detergent water
