Today I'm feeling cheerful and excited because I'm going to see my nana and Granddad today
On Tuesday we were talking about puberty and changes for what happens when your going thorough puberty and what your going to feel or why your feeling that. And we had to record a puppet show of emotion talk for what your feeling and your actions towards others.
I am a student at in Uru Mānuka. In 2020 I was a year 8 and in 2021 I will be a year 9. This is a place where I will be able to share my learning with you. Please note....some work won't be edited - just my first drafts, so there may be some surface errors. I would love your feedback, comments, thoughts and ideas.

THE FEET CAN MEASURE THE HEIGHT
The bones of the feet can tell a lot about a person. What do feet reveal about a person's height? Forensic anthropologists team up with law enforcers to help solve crimes.
Bones of the feet can reveal an interesting fact about an individual. Let's combine math with forensics to see how.
Aim: To use forensic science techniques to measure the height of a criminal.
Material:
Steps:
Material:
- A meter ruler
- Your foot
- Yourself

Findings:
Name
|
Foot (cm)
|
Height (cm)

Chloe T | 21 | 1.44 |
Chloe M | 25 | 1.62 |
Keghan | 24 | 1.50 |
Divide the length of each person's foot by his/her height.Then multiply it by 100.

Examples are:
Materials
1. Plastic bottle
2. Scissors
3. Filter paper
4. Funnel
5. Sand
6. Small Stones

STEP 5
Pour dirty water into the bottle then slowly pour the stones in.
Pour dirty water into the bottle then slowly pour the stones in.
Findings
Dirty then went clear
Write a short sentence about the water every 1 minute.
Include 'How much water has filtered through', 'How fast it is dripping through', and 'How clear the water is'.
Minutes 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
Drops per minute: 13
Water colour: Dirty/clear

Aim: To learn about the makeup of different white powders.
There are a number of different white powders in our everyday life. Some of these are harmful and others are not. Test the four white powders listed to see which one has been found at the airport.
These are the four powders we will be using. Upload a photo of each powder.
1. Cornflour
2. Baking Soda
3. Salt
4. Sugar
Before you add the iodine, vinegar or water you will need to divide each powder into 3 sections.
Materials
1. Cornflour
2. Salt
3. Baking soda
4. Sugar
5. Vinegar
6. Water
7. Iodine
8. Cardboard
Steps1. Get some black card
2. Fold it into 4 quarters
3. Write the materials
4. Put the different materials on the four corners
5. Make the materials into 3 thirds
6. Add the 3 different liquids
7. Then take two photos
Findings:
I found out that the iodine changed the cornflour purple
