TWTWB-Character Paragraph

This link right here is a link to the document I have been doing today

A key moment for Ellie, in Tomorrow when the War began, is when she had the idea to turn a lawn mower into an explosive bomb. This moment is key for her as a character because it would be her first time creating such a dangerous thing. This has resulted in her killing the soldiers and having to live with the trauma of killing people on her shoulders. In Chapter seven, Ellie and two of her friends are hiding from the invaders. At this moment she is very much scared that her and her friends are going to get caught. Ellie thinks quickly to develop a plan to protect her friends and escape from the soldiers by using the lawnmower as a bomb by putting a rag in the gas-tank and lighting it. This shows the reader that Ellie is brave,smart and capable of leadership. A quote that shows Ellie’s courage is on pg 90  “for the first time I saw their faces and struck the match”. This shows that Ellie’s actions saved their lives in a life and death situation. This is a moment that's gonna be with Ellie from majority of her life

Answers to the Questions above

Ch 17:

1- Because it wasn't such a unnecessary souvenir that Chris should have brought brought into hell especially at this time and situation there in, and not to mention if these kids had taken this drugs they would have committed are under-aged drinking & the use other drug substance. Which if they did it just adds to there long list of many laws the group had already broken/committed.

2- The 3 solider who were hit by the lawn-mower, only two of them had to been thought to have actually died, but the other 1-3 people were believed to have just been ran over and not so dead.

3- The soldiers are hoping  there invasion will go nice and smoothly as they planned it hence why they called it a "Clean war". They are trying to do this so that the bigger countries like America for example don't find out they've been invading small towns and so they don't send there troops over to help fight back against the soldiers.

4- Well I think they soldiers are doing so that the town still looks like its been habitable by civilians and to make it not look as if the town has been attacked in anyway. 

Ch 19:

5-The walked in an orderly formations, they had uniforms & prepared guns on the side of there side

6-Making plans on how to approach them properly, be caring about how they should travel & act when a solider is near

Ch 20:

7-Cause she knows that at the end of the day shes not going to be a hero, because all the practical things that will be happening Ellie already does in her day to day basis, hence why she feels like being paired with Fi will make her a hero

8-I guess true courage is when your scared but still committee to doing it

9- Truck didn't start right away, and that they we a little be scared it would get stuck under the bridge and explode with them still inside the tanker

And that's a wrap on these chapter yeah

Marshmallow Catapult shooter

Marshmallow Catapult shooter

Aim:To make a marshmallow shooter and work out what forces are acting on it.

Equipment: Paper cup, Scissors, Balloons, Marshmallows

Method:

1. Cut out the bottom of the cup.
2. Cut off the neck of the balloon.
3. Stretch the open end of the balloon over the bottom of the cup.
4. Place marshmallow in cup.
5. Pull balloon back to fire marshmallow.

Results:

Discussion:

forces acting on marshmallow

Gravity ↓  Support ↑  Friction ←  Thrust→

When the marshmallow was in the cup all the forces (the ones named above) were even as it wasn't moving. As soon as we released the marshmallow from the cup the forced that was more greater used was thrust because the marshmallow sped up, Then when it come back toward the ground gravity was for sure 

the greater used force

Conclusion:

This experiment worked out really well, some groups taped there balloon to the cup making it more stable to aim and shoot this should be added in next time. Moral of the story It was actually quite a fun experiment especially because shooting the marshmallows around the class was like so much fun.....

Commercial Patterns

For the last few weeks the year 10s of textiles having been working toward completing a commercial pattern. Commercial patterns have picture and description on the back telling there are different sizes, material needed and list of things for clothing

Ww where given the option to design a skirt, hoodie and shorts. I have chosen to make a skirt more specifically a kilt, for those of you who don't know what a kilt is just a long skirt that is designed to keep us warm during the winter time, it crosses over and ties. 

 

With this template we traced the outline of a size and cut it out. This project is still on going as where are still waiting for our materials to come

Are students addicted to their cellphones? If so, is that a problem

Yes! Student’s are very addicted to their phones. In this paragraph I am trying to prove the negative and positive sides of mobile phones and the addictions the happen with this device. This addiction is a worldwide problem that occurs due to us spending most of the days on our phones, trying to present ourselves in a certain way to satisfy the needs of others & too get liked. While our mobile phones are a very productive and helpful device there is always a negative & positive side. Some negative effects of mobile phones are that they can be used in criminal activity and many other things. these devices can interfere and distract us from our school,work and sometimes even our relationships. But a positive is they help out so much in our every day lives and makes it easier for us to contact relatives and friends.
