Christ College Conference

Last Thursday on the 16th of November ten students from Hornby High School and other schools went to Christ College Boys High for a Conference. I was lucky to be one of these students because we listened to people talk about their lives and what they done to inspire people. After we listened to people we would go to the place that we had on our name badge, I had Sir Peter Blake on my name badge. The first activity that my group went to was the activity with Mr Needle. The first thing that we did with Mr Needle was an activity where you had to get yourself into order of birth dates. After that we went to a person upstairs. The activity was to tell your team what to do. Once we finished that we went downstairs to have afternoon tea, Finally we were leaving but before we left we had a photo. I was so happy that I went because I learnt that you can achieve anything if you try.

The Science of Art

Plan:

Aim:  Make different fake blood methods.

MAKE IT: Combine 1 cup corn syrup with 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup. Stir in red food coloring until you get a deep red color (we used about 8 drops).

Recipe 1:

Ingredients:
Choc Syrup
Red Food Coloring

What were making: Fake Blood

Ingredients:
Sprite
Cocoa
Red Food Coloring
Gauze Mat
Tripod
Heat Mat
Beaker
Bunsen burner

Method:
1. Lay down a heat mat and then put a Tripod and Gauze mat on in.
2. Get a beaker and put it on the Gauze mat.
3. Then get a Bunsen burner and attach it to the gas tap.
4. Next you turn the gas tap on and light the Bunsen burner.
5. Finally you wait for the Lemonade to evaporate. 

The Experiment:
The experiment is going quite well even though it is taking ages. We are currently evaporating the water of the lemonade.


Results:
I saw fake blood and punching. The blood looked real and so did the punches. 



Discussion: 
So we made videos about fake blood with people punching.



Evaluation:
The experiment went good because we completed our videos and we had fun.

The success was finishing our videos in time.

The thing that went wrong was Eddy not wanting to put the fake blood in his mouth, it went wrong because he took a long time. We fixed it by him putting it in his mouth.

How to be safe in Science

Planning
Aim: I want to find out how to be safe in Science.
Equipment: Bucket, Detergent, Cold Water, Tube, Gas tap, Safety glasses, lighter.
Method:

1. Get a Bucket.
2. Put in a good squirt of detergent.
3. Fill half the bucket with cold water.
4. Take your loose clothing off, pull your sleeves up, if you have long- tie it up.
5. Connect a tube up to the gas tap and put the other end into the water.
6. Turn on the gas and make some bubbles.
7. Put safety glasses on.
8. Wet your hands and wrists up to your elbows.
9. Get a scoop of bubbles.
10. Hold the bubbles away from your face.
11.  Use a lighter, ignite the bottom of the bubbles.
12. Slowly, open our hands.





Doing
Smelt: It smelt like a burning Erosion of Asparagus.
Felt: It felt like I was going to get burnt because I had fire right in front of my precious face.
Look: It looked like a flame ball about to blow up.
Heard: I could hear a flame blowing up. 

Explaining

How does fire go up? 
A flame goes up because the denser surrounding air pushes it up. A flame consists of gases so hot they glow yellow, orange and red. Hot gases expand and become less dense than the surrounding air. Therefore, the flame is lighter than an equal volume of air.

Where does Adrenaline come from?
Adrenaline and Noradrenaline are two separate but related hormones and Neurotransmitters. They are produced in the medulla of the adrenal glands and in some neurons of the central nervous system. They are released into the bloodstream and serve as chemical mediators, and also convey the nerve impulses various organs.

Why is fire orange?
We see fire because energy is given off in the form of light as well as heat. Fires are commonly hydrocarbons burning in the presence of oxygen, giving rise to fine soot particles that emit yellow light when they burn at around 1,000 degrees Celsius.
