singing week 6

In singing today we were practising for a big Aroha concert. We first sang tip of my tongue we didn't sing that the best but that was ok, there were only 4 or 5 people singing. We sang oh my my lots more people sang it and I would say it was an 8/10 because some people were out of sink but we will hopefully get better at that and getting in the sink and louder than we are now before the concert.  big aroha concert

Maori


How to make a hangi,
A hangi is a traditional Maori method of cooking food underground using hot stones, and it is commonly practised throughout Aotearoa New Zealand. The food has warm, earthy tones, and is a firm favourite for social gatherings throughout New Zealand. A hangi involves setting up the pit, heating the stones, preparing the food, and then placing the food into the pit to cook.
Gather volcanic stones for the hangi. A hangi for 25 people will require enough volcanic stones to fill a 1 m  in diameter hole, around 0.5 m  deep. Non-volcanic stones will crack and explode when heated, which can be dangerous. Collect pieces of hardwood for the hangi. Wood for a hangi must be untreated, and you will need 45 pieces that are 1 m long and 5-8 cm wide. A slow-burning wood such as mānuka or macrocarpa works well. Get 3 food baskets. Food baskets for hangi are usually wire trays with sides, but they can be made out of a variety of different materials. Baskets that are made from small chicken mesh or welded perforated steel containers are common.
Dig the hole slightly bigger than the stacked food baskets. 200-300mm deeper and 200mm wider and longer than the baskets work well. The hole will need to be slightly larger than the food baskets when they are stacked so that there is enough room for sacks to be placed on the sides which will protect the food from the embers and dirt.

Pile the wood and volcanic stones on the ground to make a fire stack. There is no particular order to stack the wood and stones, and all that matters is that there is enough room beneath the stack to start a fire and that the stones are evenly distributed throughout the stack. The fire stack should be located next to the pit so that you can easily transfer the hot stones.
Light the wood in the fire stack in 3-4 places. Light a match and set alight 3-4 corners of the fire stack. If the wood doesn't show flames immediately, blow gently on the smouldering area to help it along.

C.I.P week 5

C.I.P week 5 what we did today in C.I.P


Today in C.I.P I helped out with the outside classroom, we sorted out the tables, chairs, metal thing and plastic things. We had to take apart the tables and chairs. We swept the dirt, leaves and dust.


 In the planting group, we turned over lots of dirt we turned over the dirt to break up the crusty soil and creates the air in the soil. we planted cauliflower, beetroot, broccoli and cabbage.


Also in the planting group, we raked the soil so it is easier to plant. we planted three plants in a row for the cauliflower, cabbage and broccoli and four in a row for the beetroot.


In the planting group, we made a mini-greenhouse over the plants to protect them.

What we did in C.I.P

Today at the start of cip, we headed to the changing rooms and changed into our P.E gear. Started walking down to the garden and sorted what we were doing Mya, Tehya, Jessie, Kody and I were started cutting trees and opening up the middle of the plant to get sunlight into the plant so it can grow properly. We had 3 dwords that we needed to help us and there were dead diseased damaged deranged. We cut off the dead parts of the trees the deceased parts as well, you had to cut off the branches that were facing down and growing the wrong way. 
The teacher that was helping us and giving us tips was Mark. There were people in period 3 that carried on doing the outside classroom, cutting the trees, planting trees and cleaning out the greenhouse.

conclusion

When the heat lamp was on the cup they started heating up. We turned off the heat lap and the heat kept on going up and up but cup one went down on the last round on the 75 minuet one.

Wind speed - Making an anemometer.

Anemometer

MATERIALS

  1. 4 Styrofoam cups 
  2. 1 pin  
  3. 4 straws 
  4. tape  
  5.   pencil 

STEPS

  1. connect  2 of the straws together and do to the other 2 
  2. poke a hole in all 4 cups  
  3.   put the straws as a cross
  4.   poke the straws in to the hole in the cups
  5. put the pin through the straws   
  6. and poke it in to the rubber of the pencil
Once you have made an anemometer we are going to record the wind speed.

Group size: 5

You will need:

Anemometer (above) 

Roles:


  • Timekeeper
  • Counter
  • Recorder
  • Anemometer Manager
  • Wind generator
  1. Mount the anemometer in a place that has full access to the wind from all directions.
  2. When the time keeper says "Go", the counter in each group will count how many times the marked cup passes them in one minute and write it down.
  3. If possible, repeat the above step four (4) times and record the average number of spins on the chart.

FINDINGS

  • Record how many times it spins using the table below.
You will need to create the wind yourself by blowing. Get 4 different wind speeds by blowing.

You will need to time them and count the number of spins.

Time IntervalNumber of Spins
1.108
2.1048
3.1042
4.10120
  • Can you make a statement connecting the number of spins of your anemometer and the speed of the wind? 

conclusion 
when we put it all together the cups were unstable so we bent the straws so they would stay stable.
when we had only 2 straws they were way to close and did not spin properly.
so we joined 2 straws together so it could spin properly.
at the end we tried it and it worked so from there we had to find some wind or blow on it and count how many times it spun. we tried it when i heater was on.
