Thu, Nov 22

Hello guys today in passion project( Maths Craft) we did something new called Meander and it is pretty amazing word first of all when the teacher told us what are we doing they sad this word Meander which was hard to pronounce I couldn't even say this word but its ok, So we did Meander which is something like this... 
Also, my Awesome group Nathan, Bunnarith, Cameron, Braxton and Me( Nish) my group is a hard worker and funny like always.

 

It's like a winding curve or bend of a river or road.

As you can see I made this and I think you guys maybe won't be able to see this properly if you can that's great, so as you can see I made my own design except top one because I had no idea what was happening that time than I knew what we're supposed to do. This is worst I forgot to colour in it which is sad but it works :D 






What I'm learning??
Ans= I'm learning about Meander about design like a curve or bend which is amazing :D

Ans= Well I'm showing my learning by posting my blogs with work about maths craft like I posted about Meander which is insane but it's really not :p

What I'm I wondering??
Ans= I'm wondering I could be better at designing like in Meander I'm really not good at this stuff but I'm still trying my hardest to do it :D

Well as you can see I have shown that there's are different types of camera techniques and you can see as I put some image of these scenes shots.

Watching the Water Cycle in Action

The Water cycle is a constant cycle of evaporation, condensation and precipitation.Because water cannot escape from our atmosphere, the total volume of water an earth today is the same volume of water on earth when the dinosaurs were alive.

Aim: To observe the basic processes of the water cycle.

Equipment: 200mL beaker, watch glass, ice cubes, Bunsen burner, tripod and gauze mat.  

Method: 
1. Fill the beaker with approximately 100mL of water and place on a tripod and Bunsen burner.

2. Fill the watch glass with a few pieces of ice and leave it on the bench.

3. Light the Bunsen and heat the water until it just starts to simmer. Do not boil the water.

4. Turn the Bunsen burner off and gently place the watch glass and ice on top of the beaker.

 We did this experiment it was fun and learned a lot of stuffs about it.

What is water cycle??
The water cycle describes how water evaporates from the surface of the earth, rises into the atmosphere, cools and condenses into rain or snow in clouds, and falls again to the surface as precipitation. The cycling of water in and out of the atmosphere is a significant aspect of the weather patterns on Earth.
