1000 Meters

31 October 3013.

I arrive at school ready to learn. I walk in the door. I look at the things we are going to be doing today....

1000 meters! What the heck! Since when was this happening. I was wearing longs and I didn't even have a change of cloths suitable for running.

This is how it started for me. So I just went along with it until it was our race. All of the school ran laps around the field in different age groups and slightly less distance for the younger ones. The ones not running were in house groups cheering on their house and its colour. At this point we are still to find out on the placing points for each house. 

Most of us had fun running. Some of us didn't. But like we are always told...

As long as you do your best it doesn't matter what your placing is

Bull Roarers

All the noise was almost unbearable. 

Our teacher decided to show us some instruments known as bull Roarers for the first week of term 4. We were each chosen one by one to chose a piece of wood ( resembling a bull roarer ) and tie it to some string. We then went outside to test them out - that's when the noise came in. Many different sounds of different volume. Afterwards we all shared which ones we thought worked best ( long and thin ) and if we wanted we could take them home.

This was the first experiment we had to do with our study of energy. It was a great way to learn about force and energy.

Conservation of energy

In my recent school studies i have been reasearching Conservation of energy. I have discovered that conservation of enemy is a physics law that states the total energy of an isolated state can not change in other words it is said to conserve over time. The energy can not be formed or destroyed but can change form for example kinetic, potential, heat and light energy.
