Film Recount

This is the film we made last Friday, it was about Devlin and Pala fighting. It took about 30 minutes to make but then it took an hour to edit. The editing was tricky to work out because we had never edited videos before, we were using we video to put music in the background and cut all the scenes together to make it all run smoothly. Then all the groups had to show the class the movie they made.

The human brain

WALT- think critically about a range of texts by summarising and evaluating new information

Reflection; This is a slide of all the work we did in the last two weeks. First we wrote about the human brain, if the moon had any affect on the human brain and how sleep affects your brain. After that we wrote about the solar system. Then we wrote about astrology and the four elements of astrology and their strengths and weakness. I enjoyed doing it all because they were all subjects I was interested in.

Reflection: We made bouncy eggs last week out of vinegar and a jar. We put the eggs and the vinegar in the jar. We had to wait four days for the eggs shell to dissolve in the vinegar, some eggs shells dissolved and some shells had to be washed off when we took them out. I enjoyed watching the eggs shells fall off over the four days, next time I do it I'm going to shake the egg so the yoke breaks and see if its any different.
