Because of the rain, I was late for hockey practice.

Since it is my birthday today, I can choose what I want for dinner.

After school, I went swimming.   

I was running with my friend, while listening to music.

As I walked up the stares to my bedroom, I tripped and face planted.

I was watching my little sister, and as soon as I turned around she was gone.

I cut my foot, but since there was no plasters I had to let it keep bleeding.

I can only go to the movie, if it is on at 1pm.

Lollies were $3.00 a bag at countdown, where as lollies were $2.00 at the dairy.

List the 6 menu items McDonalds has which are connected with the 2014 FIFA World Cup

For ONE of these menu items
- list the ingredients
- fully explain the connections between the item and the country the item is connected with. Make sure you explain HOW the ingredients are connected.
e.g.

Kiwiburger
The kiwiburger contains
- beef patties
- egg
- beetroot
- lettuce
- cheese
- onions
- mustard
- ketchup
This burger represents NZ because beetroot and eggs are often used in salads in NZ and this is something only Kiwis put in their salads.
It also has a big beef pattie because Kiwi is a farming nation that likes its meat.
It definitely includes tomato sauce because Kiwis put this on EVERYTHING.

Choose a country in the World Cup which does NOT have a burger at McDonalds. Design the burger. List its ingredients and explain how the ingredients you have chosen are linked to the country.













The Rio frozen sprite :
Delicious green apple and pineapple flavoured frozen sprite.

The reason why it is called the Rio frozen sprite is because the green and yellows colours are the colours of the Rio flag.



Australia's dish:
fish and chip burger with  cheese, tomato, tomato sauce and salt.

The reason why I choose this burger for Australia's is because they really like fish and chips  and there national dish is a meat pie, I put the chicken in because they also really like chicken.

How Does A Glow Stick Work

What I think now (before we start) I think when you snap a glow stick the chemicals make the glow stick work.

What I think now (after hearing others’ ideas) I still think that when you snap a glow stick the chemicals make the glow stick work.

What I think now (after seeing Miss C cut open the tube) That there are some chemicals that make the glow stick work, my perdition was correct.

What I think now (after researching)
chemicals are luminol,hydrogen peroxide.

Maths Sampling

Yesterday in Maths we learned about sampling. Write about sampling. You should include
- what is a sample?
- why take a sample?
- what are some examples of sampling done Irl?
- what does the word ‘population’ mean?
- how can you tell if are you sampling the right population?
- yesterday you took a sample using one method of sampling, explain what you did and your findings
NO question headings. Write in a paragraphing style. Remember use examples.

HERE IS THE LINK TO THE PRESENTATION WE USED




A sample is where you get a small amount of something.
We take a sample to collect data and to get information in small amounts.
For example you would take samples of different blood types, food, and more so it will be less expensive and it wont take as much time.
You can tell you are sampling the right population by having a mixture of people also called random sampling, there are two types of random sampling fair and byist.


There are two types of sampling fair and biased.
some examples of irl sampling are when you take a blood test or when you test food to see if it tastes good, drug testing.
