inquiry
We had do an inquiry based on our category and question. Our category was chemistry and the question was why do different chemical have different reactions.
I am a student at in Uru Mānuka. In 2020 I was a year 9 and in 2021 I will be a year 10. This is a place where I will be able to share my learning with you. Please note....some work won't be edited - just my first drafts, so there may be some surface errors. I would love your feedback, comments, thoughts and ideas.

Draft:
A strange thing happened on the way to school today.
I was scootering to school one day, When a meteor pod came down. BOOM!
I walked towards it. ARGH! IT WAS A ZOMBIE. I ran as fast as I could and jumped in a crashed truck. I tried to start it but it just wouldn't. Then it did. I drove off and parked in an alley and they ran right by me.I jumped in the back of the truck and realised it was a mobile armory truck. Bang! Bang! Bang! They found me. I grabbed an RPG, A Scar-L and a Revolver. Also a Hatchet. I kick the door open and run. I ran and ran, and I also accidently dropped my hatchet and revolver.
My only option was to run into the big science building. So I did and locked the door. I ran up the steers to the third story. I smashed the window with a chair. Boom! I shot a rocket and then I got my Scar out and started shooting. I took down the whole hoard. Then I blew up the meteor pod.
I picked up my bag and stuffed the weapons and I ran home and went to be
The feedback I got given.
I like how you gave us lots of information on the topic. I would like you to add more information about the problem. For example detail about how it looks, how it was doing what it was doing.
You forgot to add a title and the title adds a bit more information about the topic. I like how you gave us some detail about what you were doing but you might like to give us more detail about how you were going to school. Maybe you could give us more detail of where the meteor was seen to be going. You have given us a lot of detail about your solution.
What is the moral of this story?
My Final.

The moral of the story is to not go close to weird things.

Rubbish Clean Up
For the last few weeks 7Mt and 7DS have been working on statistics. We had to clean up rubbish around the school in just thirty minutes. The results were so impressive! We ended up cleaning up 2,900 peaces. Here are some graphs that I made.

Surviving a natural disaster.
Tsunami warning sirens.
Me
Surviving a natural disaster.
WOOOOOOOO WOOOOOOOOO WOOOOOOOO WOOOOOOOO
WOOOOOOOO
WOOOOOOOO
I was in panic. Those were the tsunami sirens. You have 24 hours before the
tsunami hits. Get to high ground or be an idiot and lock yourself in a basement.
Can you guess what option I chose. Obviously I chose to be an idiot and lock
myself in a basement. But I wasn’t that stupid I had a plan. My plan was to go
in my basement (that was 300 meters deep). it had weapons, canned food,
Frozen food, 500L of water and heaps of other things i needed to survive.
There is a ladder, a elevator and a car elevator. I could survive for a whole
year under there, It was the dream bunker it could survive anything. Especially
tsunamis. I zoomed down there. And locked the 3 big metal doors. (23 hours
later). tsunami incoming. The lights flickered on. I could hear splashing the
lights starting flickering. I turned on the generator and sat down. The tsunami
was getting worse the splashing was getting louder. I flicked on the tv and
watched it. (3 hours later). the tsunami was real intense. BANG! The first door
broke. BANG! The second door broke. I was doomed I only had one door left.
Then I remembered the big emergency door. I put in code and the door
dropped. I went and had some steak and collapsed (48 hours later). I woke
up to... The tsunami is over you can come back to town now. I opened the
doors and climbed up the ladder. Most of the city was washed away. Some
of my house was ok. By some I mean none. It was all gone there was nothing
but the elevator ladder and car elevator hatch. Well I had money so I could
just get my house rebuilt. After all I did have a car so I didn't need that.

Ice Cream Writing
Vanilla
I was about to have some vanilla ice cream. I slowly opened the tin foil top I slowly approached and scooped some. It tapped my tongue then my brain froze. It was creamy and half melted. It's like it was made for me. I can't really describe the flavor but it was still really yum.
Goody Goody Gum Drop
It was time to have ice cream AGAIN. This time it was goody goody gum drops (and it was creamy again) My table was up first. I was the first to have the ice cream. The ice cream was mint green and the it had lollies I got Three. When we finished we had to write about it (OBVIOUSLY) The ice cream has its own flavor (if you didn’t know) Now you should try goody goody gumdrop ice cream.

Ferrymead
By Cody
Introduction
If you want to see what life in christchurch in the 1850’s Then go to ferrymead heritage park christchurch.
Life in the 1850’s transport.
Many things in the 1850’s were not like now for example,In the 1850’s they only had one mode of transport. The transport was… horses.
Life in the 1850’s school
In the 1850’s the schools where really really strict. For heat the teachers would have to get up early and light the fire. In the schools if you were naughty you would get smacked with a strap(It would be really painful). In the schools the seats where wood and you dip your pen into ink. They did not have playgrounds.
Life in 1850’s food.
It was really hard to make food. The food was really rare. The cops wives had to cook for hours so when their husbands were et home they could eat. The mori use to grow food and sell it.
Life in 2017 transport
Now we have heaps of modes of transport such as cars,planes,boats, motorbikes, bikes,hover boards (they don’t actually hover),scooters, buggies and heaps more.
Life in 2017 schools
Now schools have heaters instead of fires. Now if you be naughty the punishment is not as sever. Now lots of schools in christchurch have chromebooks.
Life in 2017 food
Now you can just go to the supermarket and buy food. people still make stuff but mostly machines do. Some countries are running out of food.
Conclusion
If you want to find out more about the hard life in the 1850’s then go to
