Gummy bear

 Disscusion

  1. The normal water was transferred into the gummy bear the most. 
  2. The dry gummy bear lost 0.11 grams over a week
  3. The sugar water diffused faster than the salt water

Diffusion is the movement of a substance from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Diffusion happens in liquids and gases because their patricals move randomly from place to place. Diffusion is an important process for living things, it is how substances move in and out of cells.

Hurumanu 1

 Talofa, 

This week we ave been doing slideshows about hers and other topics of heros. 


I wake up at 6:30 and I go for a morning run, just around the block a few times. By the time i get home it’s just after 7:00. I make me a light breakfast which is 2 Eggs and 2 bacon. After I eat I go for a shower and sing in the shower. I do have errands but that's not until 11:00 when I met my crew, which is Lord of Nora, Lord of Kora and Lord of Dora. While I wait I'm going to watch Movies and kinda relax before I go to the lab. 


After I had a nap, I got myself ready and started my car to go to the lab. Under my clothes I was wearing my suit, just in case there was an emergency while I was driving to work. I was the first one out of my siblings  to get there so I set everything up and waited for the rest to come. While I was setting everything up Lord of Zora and Nora came at the same time. Lord of dora would always come late to our meeting. Our meeting was not that important but we just came because we had some stuff to do. 


While we were working on our stuff lord of dora came just in time because the alarm went off, because we had an emergency to go to. When we came back from our emergenc it was time for us to go home and relax. I got home and had a shower and ate  my dinner and watched a few movies until I went to sleep. I jumped in bed and read my book for a few minutes and went to sleep, because I was so exhausted from today.

Scott pearson 

Paragraph:


The first motor car arrived in New zealand. Willam decided to take the mayor out on a ride but they crashed and that was the first new zealand crash. Nicholas oates got his first traffic ticket because he was speeding and because he scared some horses.  


Plus Minus 



Carry heavy loads 


Pollutes air 

Faster than walking 


Could break down 

More comfortable than horses


Could have an accident 

Faster that a bike 


Expensive to buy 





“Cars made it even easier to move around and keep in contact , but they were very expensive . Only wealthy people can afford it”.


Vehicles make it really easy for people to get around like go for a 2 hour drive. But they can be very pricey. People that have good jobs and are wealthy can afford to buy one.



I would not but a motor car because you could get into a car crash and some people cant afford a car.
