Who dunnit?

Who Dunnit ?
In room 4 we are solving a crime. and what we saw was a bloody cloth next to a broken window.
So first we looked at the cloth with the blood under the microscope and what we found out was the blood on the cloth was real!

using CCTV footage we knew we had four suspects.

When we discovered our blood under the microscope, we were able to extract enough to do a blood typing test. We found that the blood was A+

We also tested the victims blood to check that it wasn't their blood at the scene, but they were O-.



We then tested our suspects blood. 1 was AB+. 2 was B-, 3 was A+,4 was O+. From this we knew it had to be suspect A.

What I am good at ?I'm not good at rugby but it’s good that  I decided to try my best.

There’s No Winning Or Losing There’s Just Trying.

What is Rugby? Rugby is a sport that is mainly played by boys and girls.I believe that rugby should be played by anyone in school. We should be able to play tackle rugby cause even though we get hurt and injured it is a lesson to face also it is a dangerous game to play because you could really badly injure yourself.

Should we allow it? We shouldn't allow it because people might get injured and you can get a broken neck from the tackle and that can actually kill you or you can get paralysed and you will need a neck brace. Also if they don’t  have a mouth guard to wear then they might break their teeth and might cry.

Is this sport dangerous? This sport is so dangerous because you can get brain damage or head concussion. And when they do get concussion they will lose their memories and they might not remember anyone or anything.

Can it damage us? This sport can also damage the school grounds or other peoples field. This can cause puddles , huge piles of mud and mud all over the carpet. Your parents will probably say take your muddy stuff off outside then walk all over her carpet.

What are you good at? Try things that you haven’t tried before and try it. It doesn't matter if you lose or win it’s just trying SO KEEP IT UP PEOPLE.

Parts of a cell

Today in genomics I learnt about the different parts of a cell. Check out the organelles below:

NUCLEUS: The Nucleus is the brain of the cell it contains the DNA that determines everything about the cell.

RIBOSOMES:  the ribosomes makes things that the cell needs like proteins and uses the proteins to make new structures.

CHROMOSOME: the chromosome has DNA that makes each living thing unique.

GOLGI BODIES: the golgi bodies take proteins and molecules in and out of the cell.

MITOCHONDRION : the mitochondrion takes food and turns it into energy.

ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM: The E.R takes the proteins from the ribosomes and puts it into the golgi bodies

Why is it important to respect our environment?

Why is it important to respect our environment?

Introduction The future of our environment is riding on the shoulders of today’s youth.

Keeping our environment happy and safe.

What i’ve learned about keeping our environment happy and safe is that we need to put our rubbish in the right bin. And even if your lazy it doesn’t mean you can throw it on the floor because that’s not the bin. So this is what me and my buddy Nevayah did. These are the rules we need to now.

Putting the rubbish in the right bin.

Making sure putting the rubbish in the right bin.
Helping others to put the rubbish in the right bin. Keeping our environment clean and healthy. If you see rubbish on the ground, make sure to pick it up and throw it in the right bin. If you see someone walk past a bit of rubbish ask them nicely (But if you see it then you pick it up)

The Big hairy spider

 

                                                

One day i went to the dental clinic. I was so scared that i thought they were going to take my teeth out. But then one of the dental clinic helpers was Jane, when Jane called out my name I was shocked, then when i went to her she wasn’t there so i had to find her. I went to the first room and it was an old man checking a little girls teeth,I went to the second room and it was Jane. Jane was talking to her friend Amy. I knocked on the door and said “ Hey who’s checking my teeth! she said oh!. Wait for me in room 3 just next door. When i went to room 3 I sat on the chair then when i was going to read a book i saw a big hairy spider. It was Big,hairy,ugly and had hairy ugly legs too! So then i panicked and scream so loud like my face was going to explode.

How can we be respectful to our teachers in class or to each other?

How can we be respectful to our teachers in class or to each other?

Introduction: By respecting one another it is important for all that look up to you as a role model.
After all they would act the same ways as you.

Saying nice things.

The first idea about respecting our teachers and each other are saying something nice to them.
And being helpful even when she tells you to do this and do that (Just respond on time).

How to show respect to all.

When respecting each other it can’t just be people, it could be animals or things that help you everyday.
When everybody takes care of there.

Showing kindness toward each other.

Respecting each other is by how you act towards them showing kindness by helping, sharing and being positive to one another.
Little things to help them and working together also play with together is a good thing.

Helping each other

When you see someone bullying your friend just tell that person to stop bullying your friend and do the right thing.
just like the 3 p's of Waitangi (participation,partnership and protection) and even the right attitude.
