The reading I did today

Today I read all types of things the first thing I read was cats cafe the thing I liked about this story was that people in Taiwan were the first people to create a cat cafe. Then I got moved to level two because I didn't answer the questions right and I got moved down and then I read the desert it told me about special plants and animals that live in the desert.
 

Static Image Commentary

In English we have been learning about static Image. The static image must be about the book abomination my idea is when Martha's mother says this quote "ASK & YE SHALL RECEIVE" and for the drawing I am doing a cross and Martha holding the cross. Here is my commentary that I have done.

Static Image Commentary    

My static image portrays the idea of Martha confronting  one of her mother’s
favourite sayings which is if you ask you shall receive but if you find out that later
in the book she asked for something but she did not receive what she asked for.
 Martha never received what she asked for such as being able to listen to pop music or
having normal clothes,
lollies or bringing friends home.

The visual elements I have included an image of  hand holding a cross.
The hand represents Martha and the cross is showing that she asked for something
and she received god’s love to succeed in what she believes.
Throughout the book Martha never gave up on her beliefs and knew God
was always there for her.  Her faith in God was important to her.

The colours I have used is red to represent passion for what she believes is right.
Yellow represents the youth which god stores upon her and the happiness she gets
when she made a new friend called Scott. God answered her prayers. I also used blue  
it shows her loyalty to Scott, her parents and her sister Mary. She was loyal to
Abomination too as she always took care of him. I also used the colour brown as it
shows her sense of responsibility as Martha wanted to do the right thing.

The quotation I have chosen is ‘Ask and you shall receive’ and the words are
relevant because to when you ask God for something  and if you are strong and
faithful, you will receive it. Martha asked for a friend and she received Scott who
helped change her life for the better.

In English

In English I was watching one video about cooking with Ann Reardon this video is sutible for any age it is giving information on how to make a giant mars bar. I really recommend this to anyone who wants to make a giant mars bar to share with their family.

What I read in English and the purpose.

Today in English for sustained silent reading I chose to read 'Black Panther who is the Black Panther by Jesse J. Holland'. This book is going good so far the author's purpose is to entertain the audience and also tot inform them who is Black Panther the audience this book is sutible for is teens and young adults.
 Who is BLACK PANTHER?

Matariki Research

Task one: Matariki Piktochart

Task two: The style of music is Maori and it is about the word Aotearoa the people who  perform this is people all over New Zealand coming to one place. The singers of this song is Stan Walker, Ria Hall, Troy Kingi and Maisey Rika.

The thing I like about the music video Aotearoa is that it is based on it's name and people all over the world coming together to put the name together.

The thing I like about the video is that it incorporates nature into the video.

This song is about the Maori language week and it was inspired by the Maori song "POI E" released in 1984 by the Patea Maori club. some of the lyrics in English is No matter if your near or far we come from the land of god no matter where you belong we'll fight for your freedom.

I don't know of any other Maori Musicals.

Task 3:
This type of story is a nonfiction.
This story was written for people any age.
The main idea was to inform people about the seven stars of matariki. 
The thing I have liked about this story is when the the eldest brother catches the women and sends them far far away.
The story i would preform is the seven stars of matariki and I would preform it with a huge group of people.
I am not one hundred percent sure on what it would look like.

The brass experimnt

In this experiment we were using a ball and ring that are made out of brass. The ring fitted through the ball.

We heated the ball first over a flame and tried to put it through the ring. The ball had expanded so it did not fit through the ring. We then cooled the ball in cold water.

Then we heated the ring - it expanded, so then the ball fitted through. We cooled the ring in cold water. 

Then we heated the cold ball and the cold ring together. They expanded equally so the result was that the ball still fitted through the ring.

Leaf Experiment (chromatography).

Today we did an experiment that involves leaf's and we used a grinned mixture from the leaf that turned liquid. The aim was to take the pigments out of the leaf our first attempt worked very well because of the type of leaf.

Our class did this the day before so me and Josh I and Jnaya did this today we used a sample from Mr Guy and another from Sammy and Natasha. The sample we got from Mr Guy worked very well and it moved slowly up the paper, the one we got from Sammy and Natasha didn't work very well but it did move up a bit.

Before you can do this experiment you should pick as many leaves minimum 2-4 maximum 4-10 the grind the leaves till you get a liquid form of the leaves then put it in a smaller test tube. Once you have put it into a smaller test tube then you put it into a test tube rack and leave it out over night. 

METHOD:

1. Get the leaf mixture you made the day before and get another test tube rack and place it on a high table (so little ones can't reach).
2. Then you get two boiling test tubes and place them into the test tube rack.
3.
