Last week there the two class's DS and MT went to paknsave we designed a menu and my group were making a fruit kebabs there was pineapples, apples, kiwi fruit, banana and apple juice. When all the groups finished we all gathered and sorted out the tables to put the food on. After the groups went back to there tables and ate there food my groups food tasted delicious with all the pop flavours it was amazing.
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.

I listen to understand people’s ideas and opinions
I can listen to their open ideas or opinions I can agree and disagree if I think not to do the idea. If my group doesn’t want to do the idea either we’ll think of a different idea.
I use feedback to improve my learning
I use the feedback to help me know what to write for my work, I like use feedback to improve my work, so it doesn’t seem boring and seem like I don’t want to do my work.
I am organised and have everything that is needed for my learning
I always like to be organised and sorted so I don’t have to be going back to the class and back. Or grabbing things last minute so I’m not late to my classes
I can reflect on my learning
I can reflect on my learning by trying my best at my work and writing it down on a document and slide. Or writing down on paper so I can still reflect on it.
I can be trusted to use my device for the task I am meant to be doing

The case of the Barefoot Burgular
In groups of 3 you are going to need to use your forensic knowledge to solve a crime. You must use the web page: Barefoot Burglar Evidence
- Determine which of the four suspects is the "Barefooted Burglar"?
- What do you think was the motive for this crime?
- Write the results of your findings and convince a jury of your peers
The Crime
At approximately 7:15 a.m., Friday morning, Mrs. King, the science teacher, thought something was fishy as she walked down the hall and noticed that her door was open. She walked into her classroom and immediately discovered that the small aquarium had been broken and her prized gold fish were gasping in the sink. Beside the broken aquarium were the shattered remains of the pink piggy bank that had been on the shelf above the aquarium. A can of blue paint was spilled on the floor. Footprints of a barefooted burglar led to an open window. Bits of a white powdery substance were found next to the broken, empty, piggy bank. The only other item found was a half-eaten large chunk of chocolate candy.
When the police arrived they immediately began to gather forensic evidence.
Height: 152 cm Alias: Lucky Lady | ||||
Peg is a librarian known for hanging horseshoes and four leaf clovers in her library. Employees say she is so superstitious she insisted on carpeting in the library instead of laying tiles so she would not step on the cracks. She wraps construction zone tape around open ladders so no one can walk under them. Cola bottles litter her office, which she drinks with chocolate chunks. Her teeth are chipped from knocking the bottles against them. She is always throwing salt over her shoulder for good luck and keeps a salt shaker in her purse. Her alibi is that she was busy closing open umbrellas the morning of the crime. |
Jake the Jock
Height 201 cm
Alias: Armchair Quarterback
Jake the Jock is known for quoting statistics on every sport from boomerang throwing to sled dogging. His neighbour report that he is the neighbourhood pitcher for baseball games. Last year a baseball hit him in the mouth and knocked out his front tooth. This has cramped his eating style of chocolate chunks, candied apples, and corn on the cob. His wife claims that on the morning of the crime Jake was rubbing his hands with cornstarch to keep them dry in preparation for an important baseball game.

Lou Lou Height: 160 cm Alias: Sweet Tooth | |
Lou Lou is so addicted to sugar that she never leaves home without it. She loves to bake sweet things and has an entire pantry full of sugar bins. She claims to have been baking her famous chocolate chunk cookies the morning of the crime (although not a morsel of cookie or chocolate chunk was left when the police arrived.) Lou Lou rarely wears shoes, which often causes her to slip and break things, especially her collection of ceramic pigs. Evidence: |
- Fingerprints: Sticky, 'swirl' fingerprints were lifted from the aquarium and piggy bank.
- Footprints: The painted footprints were measured and were for 26 cm feet.
- Teeth: The chunk of chocolate candy was collected for examination. It appeared there were teeth imprints.
- White Powder: The white powdery substance by the piggy bank was carefully placed in a plastic bag and taken to the forensic chemist for identification . It had very small grains and when mixed with Iodine it reacted making the colour brown. It did not have a smell.
Name: Dave
Fingerprints: No.
Mouth prints: Has a chipped tooth.
Shoe size: 16
White powder: None found.
Shoe size: 16
White powder: None found.

Evidence

Dan | Fingerprints: Whirl Mouth prints: No missing teeth Shoe size: None White powder: Baking soda |
Peg | Fingerprints: Whirl Mouth prints: Chipped teeth Shoe size: None White powder: Salt |
Jake | Fingerprints: Swirl Mouth prints: One missing tooth Shoe size: None White powder: Cornstarch |
Lou | Fingerprints: Arch Mouth prints: No missing teeth Shoe size: None White powder: None |
Findings: ( What did you find. Summarise what you have written in the table above)
I found out that nobody had a shoe size, Dan and Peg had the same whirl fingerprint Lou and Dan had no missing teeth
I found out that nobody had a shoe size, Dan and Peg had the same whirl fingerprint Lou and Dan had no missing teeth
Verdict: ( Who is the burglar and why)
I think that Peg is the burglar because she eats chocolate chunks. Her teeth are chipped from knocking the bottles against them and she throws salt over shoulder for good luck so maybe she cant get caught.

RESEARCH 4 TYPES OF PLANT GROUPS
- Carnivorous plants
- Pine trees
- Fruit trees
- NZ Natives
You will need to do the following:
- Title: NZ Natives
- Examples:
- Ponga
- Maunka
- Kowhai
- Pohutakawa
Habitat: (select one from the list)
- Desert / beach / mountains / swamp / plains / forest
Climate (select one from the list)
- Hot / warm / cold
- Rainy / dry /
- Windy / still
Conclusion
In conclusion if we don't start looking after the trees in future generations they will start disappearing and we will only have memories or photos to look back on, I say we should look after our native trees and leaves.
