S.T.E.A.M

For innovation day we were assigned to make a project/game about electricity. We needed to make a slides presentation about what we did. And a game. While building the game getting the wires connected to the buzzer to make a noise when getting the metal to hit the wire was difficult. But once we got the buzzer hooked up we could decorate. The decorating part was definitely the easiest part. Once we were finished we recorded the game explaining how to play the game. Here are the videos.


Exhilarating Reading

 

For English we were assigned a project where we got to choose a book and make an artifact about it. I chose to do a board game. For the board game we had to make a game that goes along with the book we picked. The book I picked is called From The Desk Of Zoe Washington. This book is about a girl’s journey to get on a baking show but instead the story turns out to be about the main character trying to get her dad out of jail. I chose my artifact  to be a board game because it goes well with my book as one will see throughout the book the main character goes on an adventure to prove her dad’s innocence. I chose to include Zoe making her own recipe and getting her dad out of jail as my elements. 

 

Components: 

Game board

2 decks of cards

Playing money

Game pieces 

2 dice 

 

How to play:

  1. Place game on a flat surface
  2. Pick a banker 
  3. Put money in separate piles 
  4. Shuffle game cards and place on designated spot
  5. Pick you characters 

 

Objective: 

Your goal is to make it around the board twice. Once every player has made it count your money, the person with the most money will be crowned the winner. The way to get money is to land on money squares or by cards you are also able to lose money so be careful. 

 

Rules:

 You will roll the dice and move that many spaces on the board, there will be squares where you may move forward or move back a few spaces. There are also cupcakes and law scales. If you land on the cupcake you take a bake sale card if you land on the law scales you take the law card. When everyone makes it around the board twice the person with the most money wins. 

 

Cards:

The cupcake square you take a baking sale card if you land on the law scale square you take a law card. Read the card and do what the card says, some will give you money and some will take money away.

Truth and Reconciliation

This week was truth and reconciliation week to remember the indigenous people in Canada and how many went to these schools that were run by churches. The students were taken away from their families and sent to these schools to forget who they are. When you get there they would take your clothes, cut your hair and make you take a shower then change into a uniform. These students would only see their family twice a year. And if they talked to the other gender they would get abused or starved many died from this and not many survived the schools started in 1883 till 1996 the last school to close was in Saskatchewan in 1996. Our school should start teaching more about indigenous traditions and culture. Reconciliation means to fix broken relationships.

Innovation day!

Introduction

Hi everyone! Welcome to my blog about Renewable energy. For my innovation day project I studied solar panels (the other option was wind turbines) but I chose solar panels because they can be big or small and some of them can be really cheep. I think solar energy is a environmentally friendly way of getting energy by collecting the sun’s strong rays and converting them into energy. A solar panel is made out of silicon, there are 2 types of silicone type n and type p. Positive charge and negative charge the tiny flow of light are called protons shooting out of the sun as soon as electrons are collected they flow through an external circuit before running through an aluminium sheet on the back of the device you want to work. And that is how you get solar energy.

Empathise
Before COVID 19 we were able to travel to places such as Florida,mexico and more but ever since COVID we’ve been stuck in our houses. You would have to not wear masks or social distance. One of the hardest things about the lock down for our families is that we are not able to travel and not able to have friends indoors. We think for families that are less fortunate than us would have trouble making money and paying taxes and bills. The positives for some people was that some people got pools or pets and/or a device for online learning.

Ideate 
We are going to make an obstacle playground with an obstacle course and the lights are powered by solar panels.

Scientists in school!

Hey again its Olpmcc,

A scientist came to our virtual class today and taught us a bit more about matter. She taught us about chemical reaction. We made purple bubbles using cabbage water, baking soda and vitamin c  the bubbles were really cool to look at and make. The cabbage water smelt so bad. The scientist made us find out what was in a container from her lab at home. It turned out to be flour and baking soda. I was right from the start when we had to guess what was in it.

Minecraft paragraph

Hi, its me again Olpmcc 

 

Minecraft should be involved in teaching because it will inspire kids to learn in a funner way.Firstly, it will motivate kids to learn online because it’s not boring. For example in regular school you are expected to do all of your work so you basically just want to get it done fast so you can do what you want.When playing minecraft you won’t be rushing to be done you would take your time because you’re doing it in a fun way.Secondly, the music is calming and nice to hear. The music makes you feel relaxed. When you are relaxed you can do your work easier than when you’re stressed. When your mind is relaxed it can focus on what you need to do. Unlike when you’re stressed it will be harder to do things.Lastly, Minecraft is used for education. For example the potion making is close to science because you get to learn all about the items that you are using. For example the night vision potion is made from. Nether wart,golden carrot and blaze powder. The way students would get smarter is by learning all about the materials they used. 

In conclusion Minecraft should be involved in teaching because it is fun and inspiring.
