Me

    Me

I think my friends are superb especially because they are always there for me.

I am excited to start swimming lessons. I am also excited for camp in Term 4.

Five words to describe me -- Crazy, Wild, Fun to be, Hyper and always on the go.

I am good at biking, drawing, writing, reading, sleeping in and running.

When I grow up, I want to be an author, artist and a person that people will look up to.

I need to work on my math especially around fractions and decimals, my goals for Term 3 and 4.

Google Cardboard

What is Google Cardboard?

Google cardboard is a ‘virtual reality’ plan which was made by Google. This was made to replace those ‘fake’ photo reels that kids usually play with. Google has taken a whole new level and many people are amazed by this.

How does it work?

Google cardboard  isn’t constructed when you first buy it. You have to construct it yourself which brings out your knowledge of constructing and your creativity. When it is built, you place your smartphone inside the phone compartment. Then you look into the lenses and there will be a menu. Some of the categories in the menu are Youtube, Google search and others. By tilting your head up, down, left and right and it will respond just like you are in the photo. The magnet is what you use to click and submit just like a button but instead of clicking it, you have to drag it down.

What is it made out of?

Google cardboard is made out of cardboard. The only parts of Google cardboard that aren’t made out of cardboard are the lenses where you look through.

What is colour?

What is colour?

What do your eyes sense when you see colour?

When our eyes see something, the sensors that are in our eyes sense light and because of the light that our eyes sense, we are able to know and see what colour the object is.

Why can’t we see colours in the dark?

In the dark, we can’t see colours because the darkness around us absorbs all the colours. The darkness also doesn’t reflect any light.

How are black and white surfaces different in the way they reflect and absorb light?

Black and white surfaces are different because white surfaces reflect all the colours that are in the white light that surrounds the white surfaces but the white surfaces don’t absorb any light, it just reflects the light surrounding it. Black surfaces don’t reflect any light but it absorbs all the colours that are around it.

What determines whether an object is opaque, transparent or translucent?

Objects are either opaque, transparent or translucent. Opaque objects are the ones that absorb and reflect light. This doesn’t happen all the time. Sometimes when light hits something, not all the light is reflected and absorbed. Transparent objects are the ones that you can see through. Just like a ghost! This is because the light that is reflected off a transparent object, it passes through very smoothly. Sometimes objects are translucent. Translucent objects let light pass through but it scatters. Unlike, transparent objects, translucent objects don’t pass through smoothly. So when you look through a translucent object, it is blurred.

Deer Memes

At school we were learning about deer in New Zealand. My reading group made memes to support deer that are killed for no reason. People kill deer for the fun of it.
