Tech (technology) - Week 3

Today the year 7’s and 8’s had tech (technology) at Tamaki College.
When the bell rang the year 7’s and I went to our tech class with our
teacher Mr Nath while the year 8’s went to their cooking class. When
we got to our class we all sat down in groups.


Our first activity was Positive, Negative and Natural. Our tech teacher
gave everybody 2 sheets of papers that were about plastic, we had
to cut the facts and paste them on to what we thought, I got the first
fact correct. After a while I was the first one to finish so my tech teacher
gave me chocolate.


Our second activity was, we watched a video about plastic and after
the video our teacher told us to get our books out that she gave to us
last week. On the first page we had to write Minor and on the second
Minor. We had to write about things that we will do that will help New
Zealand and the Sea.


Our last activity was, Our tech teacher gave all 3 groups a bag of
plastic rubbish in it. Then she gave us a number each and a paper
that was for the meaning of our numbers, I was number 6.
Number 6 had to gather all the containers and tins. Number 7
had to gather all the bottles. Number 5 had to gather the plastic
bags and number 4 had to gather the lids.

Then sadly the bell rang for 11:00. The year 7’s and 8’s had to leave.
After tech we all learnt something new today.

Week 3 Term 1 - 2020 Addition and Subtraction - Maths activities for all groups

85 + 52 = 137
80 + 50 = 130
5 + 2 = 7
130 + 7 = 137

So we had to figure out how much Miss Smith and Miss Kyee bought all together.

So Miss Smith bought 85 water balloons and Miss Kyee bought 52.

So we added the 10's first so 80 + 50 and it added up to 130, and then we added the 1's so 5 + 2 = 7, then we added our answers up and we got 137.

How Drought Affects Living Things

How Drought 
Affects Living Things

A drought occurs when there is an unusually low level of rainfall
in a particular place over a long period of time. The effects of
drought are wide-ranging because all living things need water
to survive.

In a drought the water levels in rivers, lakes and reservoirs are
reduced and some of these eventually dry up. When levels fall
too low, the water becomes dirty, which can lead to disease. People
need clean water for drinking, cooking and washing.

Without rain, fertile land dries out and develops deep cracks.
Hot winds blow away the parched topsoil, so the land is no longer
suitable for growing crops, or feed for livestock.

In these conditions, many animals die and farmers cannot supply
the fruit, vegetables, meat and dairy products that people need.

A drought puts the natural bush and wetland habitats of many
species of wildlife at risk. Some species, including fish and frogs,
have difficulty adapting to drought conditions and may become extinct.

Droughts are harmful to people, animals and the land because
water supplies are essential for survival.

Maths

Today in the morning my group and I did a math problem. The problem was, Glenbrae School was going on a trip to Auckland Museum and they were taking 190 students with them. They hired some buses and each bus could hold 25 passengers. How many buses did they hire?

So first we knew that 1 bus holds 25 passengers, so we did 2 buses which added up to 50 students, then we did another 2 buses which added to 50 as well. We added 50 and 50 which added up to 100. Then we did another 2 which had 50 and added that 50 to the 100 which added up to 150, then we did another 1 bus which had 25 passengers and added that 25 to the 150 which added up to  175.

Now we only have 15 students left. I put them in another bus and added 175 to 15 which added up to 190. So you need 8 buses.
