Innovation day 2024

Hello Peeps,

 

Throughout innovation day I learnt to plan out what I do in advance and take advantage of the last minute.

 

This innovation was pretty tough me and my partner were both perfectionists so the project took a lot more time than planned 

We spent a lot of time on the project’s painting and not enough time on the circuit. We only realized that we had to build the circuit. We had to go to my house and get some help so we could actually have electricity in our project. We ended up having a very good and very popular game but we could have made it better by spending more time on it.

 

Bye, Saturn

Public Speaking #2

Hello, y’all what is up this is my public speaking from 2023, (just so you know my speech is about oceans.

 

Introduction

Did you know that the ocean covers 71 percent of the earth’s surface? Pause for 2. Now you’re probably thinking, Kayla can you be a little more pacific? No, I am being as specific as I can be. I will wow you with crazy creatures, trash islands, and last but not least the awesomely awesome ocean areas. Let’s dive in a little deeper to learn more about the OCEAN.

Point 1

When I say the word ocean you probably think of crab, fish, dolphin, shark, octopus, seahorse, seal, walrus, narwhal ETC.ETC.but I know some creatures that you have probably never heard of like a Vaquita. Vaquita’s are also called Phocoena sinus. Vaquitas are only found in the Gulf of California in Baja California, Mexico. These species are extremely endangered and very rare.Pause for 2. To give you an image, Vaquitas look like a small dolphin. Now I have another one you have probably never heard of and it’s called a Pacific footballfish, kind of a funny name and before you ask NO it is not a fish that plays football. It is just a fish that resembles a football in shape and size. If you did not already guess the Pacific football fish is located in the Pacific Ocean.Which is the ocean that has the most trash. That brings us to the next point.

 

Point 2

Let’s explore how much trash gets dumped into the ocean per year.A calculated 8 Million tons of plastic enter our oceans every year. Pause for 3 shocked expressions. There are 5.25 trillion pieces of plastic debris estimated to be in our oceans. That could fit two hundred ninety-one billion six hundred sixty-six million six hundred sixty-six thousand six hundred sixty-seven humans. There is so much trash in our oceans I don’t even know where to start. Did you know that there are actually 5 TRASH ISLANDS IN OUR OCEANS!!!! Garbage patches or trash islands are large areas of the ocean where litter, fishing gear, and other debris known as marine debris – collects. They are formed by rotating ocean currents called “gyres.” You can think of them as big whirlpools that pull objects in. There is one in the Indian Ocean, two in the Atlantic Ocean, and two in the Pacific Ocean. The most commonly known trash island is in the Pacific Ocean. It is called the GREAT PACIFIC GARBAGE PATCH. I’m pretty sure you have heard about this one if not you learn something new every day. How do these trash islands affect our world? Well, Trash islands like loose trash pollute our oceans but if a pod of whales comes by a trash island they could get seriously injured. Please use the 3 R’s Reduce Reuse Recycle and save our oceans!

 

Point 3

We live in Ottawa. We are not even touching one of the 5 oceans but if we lived in Nova Scotia we would be touching the Atlantic Ocean, if we lived in California we would be touching the Pacific Ocean. Here are a few fun facts about the Oceans. Number one, The Arctic Ocean. Which places does the Arctic Ocean touch? The Arctic Ocean touches Canada, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Russia, and the United States. Now you’re probably asking what about the other oceans. Well, let’s talk about the Atlantic Ocean, which places does the Atlantic Ocean touch? Bahamas, Belize, Bermuda, Canada, Costa Rica, Greenland (DEN), Guatemala, and Honduras. Those are only the places in North and Central America. Time for the Indian Ocean! Which places does it touch? Here is your answer which is slightly shorter than the last one. It touches South Asia, the Middle East, the Eastern Coast of Africa, and the islands dotting the ocean from Sri Lanka in the east to the Comoros archipelago in the west. What about the Pacific Ocean? Let’s name some more places. Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua. Pretty similar to the Atlantic. Last but not least we have the Southern Ocean. Which countries does it touch? Just a few countries and the lucky countries are Australia, Chile, and South Africa.

 

Conclusion

Now that you have raised your head above the surface and learned about some of the Craziest creatures in the ocean, The terrible trash islands in the oceans, And some of the countries that touch the ocean. You have the ability to impress all humans with your brainpower. because you listened to this speech about oceans. If you were not then shame on you. I hope you enjoyed listening to my speech, thank you.

Peace

Titre- Ma Journée Typique

 

A la fin de notre unité sur Une journée Typique dans la classe de français, Madame Sylvie nous a demandé de faire un projet pour démontrer ce que nous avions appris. J’ai choisi CANVA pour montrer les activités que je fais dans une journée typique comme dimanche. Nous devions aussi utiliser l’horloge de 24 heures pour indiquer à quelle heure on faisait chaque activité. Après, nous avons présenté notre projet à la classe. Madame sylvie a déclaré qu’il s’agissait de l’un des meilleurs projets qu’elle ait jamais vus

Innovation day!

Hello Besties!!!

Now I know what your thinking, not another science post! So I’m saying right back YES ANOTHER SCIENCE POST!!!

Here is a photo!
And the best part is that the lights really light up!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A water turbine is used to convert the energy contained in water, potential energy, or kinetic energy into mechanical or electrical energy. There are two types of water turbines, the reaction water turbine, and the impulse water turbine. The most significant difference between an impulse turbine and a reaction turbine is that the impulse turbine uses only the kinetic energy of water to rotate its runner, while the reaction turbine uses both the pressure and kinetic energy of water to spin the turbine. A reaction turbine generates power from the combined forces of pressure and moving water. A runner is placed directly in the water stream, allowing water to flow over the blades rather than hitting each individually. An impulse turbine generally uses the velocity of the water to move the runner and discharges at atmospheric pressure. A water stream hits each bucket on the runner. With no suction on the downside of the turbine, the water flows out the bottom of the turbine housing after hitting the runner. Potential energy means that the water flow has the potential of doing something. kinetic energy is the moving energy. The reaction water turbine is sealed whereas the impulse turbine is not.

1 Semester Hebrew

Hi!!! It’s SATURN I am back with my first semester Hebrew work so the first one that I did was an all-about-me project to get my classmates and me to know more about each other.here is an example slide.
                                                      now here is a picture of the store project i did with kitty stars on a store for vocabulary

                                                                   THANK U

public speaking

Ughhhhh school is so boring.I mean the teachers make us do work when the classroom alphabet only has 25 letters(pause for 3 ) we don’t know Y.

 

Hello everybody(pause for 3 ) I’m Saturn and i’m going to talk about what would happen if kids ran the school. If kids ran the school it would be unlimited and REAL choice time, we would build our own schedules to fit our passions and personalities

 

Point .1 Math – No! Hebrew-a definite no! Science – YES! 

If kids ran the school they would be able to choose only the subjects they want! It would be a year-long passion project!(pause for 3 ) Teachers are always saying that we get ‘choice time’ but this would be a literal choice time! Did you know that 80% of kids would be more focused in school if they didn’t have to ENDURE long lessons of boring nonsense!? My school would have a day like this once or twice a week.so you would be safe from endless boredom.

 

Point2. I think that if kids ran schools we would have an all day recess complete with an outdoor trampoline park and a free pizza and ice cream area! We would have a food fight after lunch with all the food that we didn’t like. Then we would do a scavenger hunt and the best part would be NO HOMEWORK!!! ya teachers kids have stuff to do to it’s not all homework. Kids would have free evenings to do whatever they want. Did you know that children’s mental health improved by 37% when homework was removed from school? 

Point.3 – real life learning experiences 

Imagine your dream is to become an olympian. As part of school you could have a field trip choice so you could choose anywhere in the world to go you could go see the olympics live and me and the Olympians too. If the place didn’t exist there would be fully programmed VR setup so you could truly go anywhere.

Conclusion (hand out piece of paper)

 Now can everybody please sign this petition if you think that students should be able to elect a child, who they think will do a great job to be principal for the day. This would happen once a year and make a lifetime of difference for all students!so don’t stop beleving you can run a school follow your dream(pause for 3 ) unless your dream is stupid then dream something else.Thank you 

 

INNOVATION DAY

Innovation day

hi, I am Saturn🪐 welcome or welcome back to my blog😛 today I’m writing about my science project.

Innovation day is otherwise  known as S.T.E.A.M fair,

S.T.E.A.M fair stands for Science Technology Engineering Arts Math. For my project, I am creating a medieval castle including a Working pulley, a Working gear system as well as the castle being a strong structure.

Background information of medieval times.

Feudalism was a scene of lawful and military customs in medieval Europe that thrived between the 9th and 15th centuries. It can be  explained as a system for structuring society around relationships originating from the holding of land, known as a fiefdom or fief, in exchange for service or labor.

LORDS, if you lived in medieval times your life followed some specific paths, if you were the child of a King and Queen or a lady and lord, you would have a privileged life with lots of food to eat and clothes to wear. you’d live in a lovely house. You also had servants many of them.children of a lord or a lady would occasionally learn to read or wright mostly boys but girls arent impossible.

SERFS, Serf is another word for farmer. serfs lived In poverty during the middle ages they were the poorest of the peasant class. You could say somewhat a slave. The serfs were owned by whichever lord ruled that area. In exchange for a place to live, serfs worked the land to grow crops for themselves and their lord. Also, serfs were meant and expected to grow crops for their lord and pay their rent.

 

Hypothesis:

Here is a picture of my ideation stage (where I planned what I wanted my castle and drawbridge to look like)


Procedure:

(Write or record how you build your castle and drawbridge)

Final result video:

Self-reflecting conclusions:

  • I think that if  I would do this again I would have …
  • made a gear system
  • made better functioning drawbridges

and put kittens in it (i love cats|~_~|

Have a nice day

Saturn,
