Boinks - Science.

Yesterday we got the science box delivered to our classroom. I had chosen the one activity called Boinks, It was a skinny looking thing. When you squeezed it down it will become more fatter and more circular shaped. It made a shape where it looked like a vase, I made a video on explaining how it works and answering some questions on the sheet I had got with the Boink. Here it is:

Torch Challenge.

WALT - What we were learning to do today was to make a closed circuit.
My group found it easy to start the circuit but didn't know where to put the light bulb.
My group found it tricky to find a place to put the light bulb and to make it light up.
Next time we could read a couple instructions on how to make one then we will be ready to make one on our own and research about what we did wrong.

Explanation:
1. What is electricity?: Electricity is something to do about lights. When you turn on a light or off, It's basically electricity that turns it off and on for you. Electricity includes anything to do with lights, phones, devices, some cars and even more!

2. Where does the electricity go in your torch? It's in the torch like a small closed circuit with the light on the front of the torch si when you turn it on and press the button then light directly shines in the front to be brighter.

3. What did you have to make the bulb glow? We needed electrical tape, 6 wires, tinfoil, cardboard and a small light bulb that looked like a light from fairy lights.

Taskmaster - Tea Bag challenge.

Today we did another Taskmaster challenge.
We were had 5 minutes on throwing a tea bag into a mug.
My distance from my foot to my mug was 150 centimeters/1.5 metres.
I found it really hard on trying not to lean forward and get a bit closer.
It took me 36 seconds to get it in.
I took 6 tries and on the 7th I got it.
