Stone carving

What did I do in the workshop today? (Monday 19 November)
Today in group B I begin to shape my koru, with the cheese grater. I was also carving in the spirual and I sandpapered it to make to more round.
I think that at this moment in time I am making really good progress with my stone carving.
My next step is to shape it properly with the cheese grater.

 Monday 26 Nov
Kia ora today I will be working on my second stone carving that I want to take home, the two ideas I have thought of are Maui's Fish Hook, or harakeke.
Mauis fish hook because I think it represents leadership and bravery and trickery because that's what Maui was known for
Harakeke because I like the design and I think it represents family and love.

5***. Make a fizzy drink mixture by mixing together 1 teaspoon each of baking soda, Tartaric acid, or citric acid and sugar. put 1 teaspoon of this mixture in a glass of water and stir vigorously. Add CO2. Investigate which proportions of tartaric acid and baking soda produce the most bubbles and record your result on a chart or graph.

6*.place some drops of water on a piece of cotton or wool material and observe what happens. Now touch each of  of the drops with a match or tooth pick which has been dipped in dish washing liquid. Record what you see and explain why Detergent and then touch the match stick onto the milk in the centre of the container.Explain what you observe.

7. *make a funnel by cutting the top third off a plastic soft drink bottle. Use a circle of paper towel as a filter paper. Demonstrate how it works to your teacher by filtering a mixture of soil and water.

8. Sherbet
1 tsp baking soda (sodium bicarbonate)
1 tsp citric acid.
3 Tbsp icing sugar.
2 Tbsp flavoured jelly crystals.
bowls & measuring spoons


9.*Crush some barbecue charcoal to a power. Shake a coloured liquid such as cordial with the charcoal and then filter. Write a brief report on the results.

10.**Design an experiment the tests the amount of salt the must be in water before it will not freeze when left overnight in your freezer. Write a report on what you did and the results.




AIM: To find out about the tongue and the different taste buds.


Method:


1.  I mixed all the ingredients in a ziplock bag.
2. Tasted the ingredients.

1 tsp baking soda (sodium bicarbonate)
2 tsp citric acid.
3 Tbsp icing sugar.
4 Tbsp flavoured jelly crystals.
bowls & measuring spoons

Findings: Once the sherbet hits your taste buds you get all kinds of feeling on your tongue,
