Daylight saving.

 Hello welcome back to my blog.


Today in class we are learning a bit about daylight savings. I myself don't really know about daylight saving because I don't notice the difference. I still go to bed at the same time and wake up at the same time. Anyway we had some questions that we had to answer so here is my work.

  1. When does Daylight Saving happen each year in New Zealand?

The last Sunday in September 

  1. What year did Daylight Saving start in New Zealand?

1927

  1. Why was Daylight Saving started?

Daylight saving started so that in summer or other seasons the night will come later than normal. This is done by setting the clocks ahead or behind the normal time 

  1. Read the following article and write a paragraph (3-8 sentences) on whether or not you think that Daylight Saving should continue in New Zealand.

https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/107348361/times-up-should-we-end-daylight-saving-in-new-zealand

I think that daylight saving shouldn't continue this is partly because I don't want to have to get up more early then normal or if its more then normal I don't know if I should still go to school at the time or the time it normally is.

  1. Do all the states in Australia have Daylight Saving? Who does and who doesn’t?

New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, Tasmania, the Australian Capital Territory and Norfolk Island have daylight savings

The ones that don't is Queensland, the Northern Territory, Western Australia, Christmas Island or the Cocos (Keeling) Islands.

  1. Write 3 tips to help others adjust to Daylight Saving this weekend.

Go to bed early. Exercises. Drink sleepy drinks before bed.


Thank you for reading my blog and what are your tips for sleeping on daylight savings.

Throw back of science.

Hello welcome back to my blog.

In science we have been doing many little experiments here is some of them and a poster about solar power.




Solar heat.

We created a mini oven by taking cardboard and covering one side of our chose with tinfoil which would bonce the heat onto chocolate cookies with marshmallows on top.

Testing for gases. 

We tested for 2 gasses hydrogen and oxygen. We tested for hydrogen by putting a piece of metal into a tube then put in some acid then put another tube on top of it so we could collect the gas then put in a wooden stick which was on fire. The way we did the oxygen was by putting in some acid a stick was lit on fire again then we blew it out and put it in the tube it lit back on fire. 

And this week made mini windmills to represent solar power.

Reflection of PE.

 Hello welcome back to my blog.

In PE we have been learning about area,volume,measurement,heart rate,pulse and weight. My progress since we started hasn't changed that much the most that has changed is that I've gotten faster and can do more of the exercises.

My next steps would be working on my breathing and maths.
