I'm trying to CONTAIN my excitement - Science 24/8 and 25/8
LO : Understand what the 5 senses and prepare for /carry out an experiment
Smell Ya Later
Aim
I aim to get better with my nose so that I can guess which object is in which container
Equipment
Smell Ya Later
Aim
I aim to get better with my nose so that I can guess which object is in which container
Equipment
- An Adult - Link
- A Group of Three or Four - Link
- A blindfold - Link
- A Opaque Container which is small - Link
- Stuff that smell - Link
Method
- Before you start the experiment either Zach or Joel will poke small holes in the container so that you can smell through it. As shown in diagram A
Diagram A - Either Zach or Joel will put one of these items into the container so that your ready to try it out. These items may be in Diagram B
Diagram B - Zach or Joel will put an Number on the bottom of each container so it's you can do it number by number. As shown in Diagram C
Diagram C - Zach or Joel will tape a piece of paper on the bottom of the container explaining which is in which. As shown in Diagram C
- The Leader of your group will blindfold the person who is doing the experiment
- The Person will try to guess which is in which from 1 to 10
- Make sure Jacob is writing down the guesses
- See if the person guessed correctly
Safety Procedure
Make sure you act mature around each smell and try not to break any of the containers

There's a SkeleTON of bones and muscles- Muscles 17/8/17
LO : be able to identify, locate and describe the function of muscles.
Muscles
Bicep
Tricep
Carv
Gluteus Maximus
Abdominals
Facts
1. Gluteus Maximus is located in your behind
2. Muscles take up 40% of your total body weight.
3. It takes half as long to gain muscles than it does to lose it
4. The smallest muscles are located in the middle of your ears
5. Once you take a single step you are using 200 muscles
18/8/17
1. Upper Arm Front
2. Upper Arm Back
3. Lower part of your back
4. Upper Abdomin
5. Upper Front Knee
6. Shoulders
2. Muscles take up 40% of your total body weight

Bicep - Link
Tricep - Link
Carv - Link
Gluteus Maximus - Link
Abdominals - Link
Quadriceps - Link
2.
Bicep - The most important function is to support the forearm and flex the elbow in the joint
Tricep - The Function of the tricep is to control the arm
Carv - The gastrocnemius and soleus muscles taper and merge at the base of the calf muscle
Gluteus Maximus - When the gluteus maximus takes its fixed point from the pelvis, it extends the acetabulofemoral joint and brings the bent thigh into a line with the body.
Abdominals - The rectus abdominis is an important postural muscle. It is responsible for flexing the lumbar spine, as when doing a so-called "crunch" sit up. The rib cage is brought up to where the pelvis is when the pelvis is fixed, or the pelvis can be brought towards the rib cage (posterior pelvic tilt) when the rib cage is fixed, such as in a leg-hip raise. The two can also be brought together simultaneously when neither is fixed in space.
Quadriceps - All four quadriceps are powerful extensors of the knee joint. They are crucial in walking, running, jumping and squatting. Because rectus femoris attaches to the ilium, it is also a flexor of the hip. This action is also crucial to walking or running as it swings the leg forward into the ensuing step. The quadriceps, specifically the vastus medialis, play the important role of stabilizing the patella and the knee joint during gait.

Let's Zoo-m Through the Zoo! - Orana Wildlife Park Experience Blog
Today was an interesting day. Mr Caine kept on telling us that today was the day that we are going to Orana Wildlife Park, and I completely forgot. I brought my lunch, recess and my trusty chromebook and headed to school. I didn't realise until I arrived, nothing is going to be THAT different right?
Mr Caine didn't waste anytime getting us into our groups, he grabbed his sheets of paper and ordered us to get into our groups. I didn't mind, getting into groups was easy, but some people made it harder than it needed to be.
It felt like 5 years, but it actually took around 20 minutes. We jumped with joy into the bus which made the wheels go round and round all the way to Orana Wildlife Park.
As soon as I arrived we had morning tea, it didn't feel like 30 minutes it passed by really quickly. As they say "Time flies when you are having fun with your lads"
My group was with Mr Mitchell and Sarah, There were some "Interesting" people in my group but that didn't bother me, I'm interested in what today holds. The First thing we looked at was the "legendary" kiwi who ended up sleeping the whole time while we were there.
Since we couldn't see them active, Sarah broughts us to a shed which held stuffed animals. Inside the group got to see the actual animals. It wasn't the same as seeing them actually move but we dealt with it.
After that we walked to the next area the tiger. Sarah explained that "He is marking his territory", I turned and I saw him walking around the cage. Once he walked close to us he just stared at us and walked back and forth growling. It seemed like he didn't trust us, what a "Friendly" Tiger.
The next area was the lions stand. We walked up a few stairs and saw 7 lions having a nap. A few people tried to wake them up and succeeded. Sarah then told us an interesting fact "Lions spend 20 hours of the day sleeping and the other 4 running around" Lions are Lazybones, Who knew.
We looked at a few more animals and as soon as it started it ended. We got into the bus and drove off. Today was an interesting day, Orana Wildlife Park is an interesting place. Maybe I might go there again one day. . .
