Hello everyone, this Hurumanu 3 we have been working on a timeline about the black death. We have to make the timeline and pick what or when was the chaos. There's no much information about it and it's more like the time and pictures. Here is the timeline I made.
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.

Evaporation Experiment
Hello everyone today we are doing evaporation while doing the experiment we are looking at the changes in the water and also see the evaporating basin. The experiment was fun because we used bunsen burner, I had to lit a fire by a lighter. The water was condensing, steaming, boiling and evaporating. At the bottom are the aim, hypothesis and the equipment used.
Separating a Mixture using Evaporation:
Aim: why you are doing the experiment
To separate a solution into a solvent and solute using evaporation.
Hypothesis: what you think will happen, and why….
I think it will heat up and the copper sulfate will leave some crystal at the sides.
Equipment: Copper sulfate solution, 250mL Beaker, heatproof mat, evaporating basin, element.
Method:
Set up element
Add 100mL of hot water to the beaker and place on the element.
Add copper sulfate to the evaporating basin until it is quarter full.
Carefully, place the evaporating basin on top of the beaker.
Turn on the element to 3
Heat the solution until most of the solvent has been evaporated and crystals of solute are forming.
Turn off the element- be careful not to touch, as it will be hot for a long time.
Observations: What did you see, hear etc when doing the experiment.
The boiling was loud so you could hear the boil of the water and also you can hear the gas.
Conclusion: Was your hypothesis correct?
yes, the crystal stayed and it has some a little bit of kinda glitter.
Discussion: What happened and why… using your scientific keywords (Evaporating, Solvent, solute, solution, mixture, heat, boil) The water started boiling because of the heat and while it was boiling the steam started coming out of the beaker. When it
Evaluation: Did you enjoy the experiment? Why? What would you do differently next time?
I enjoyed it because I'm learning something new and I had fun with my group but some people in our group sometimes don't really do anything so I would like to change it.
Copper sulfate is poisonous

Dilution
Hello everybody, this chemistry we are experimenting with Serial Dilution. The picture below is the aim and the instruction about our experiment.
- Which was most dilute? least concentrated
- How do you know it's more Dilute and Concentrated? Explain?

Esol - Halloween Project
Hello everyone, this week we are working on our presentation about the scary myth about our own culture. I had a lot of fun making the short film because my teammates Janel and Shiela made it fun while filming. It was a bit stressful to edit because I don't really know what I would put fo the caption. If we had more time editing it, I would make some changes to the voice-over because it didn't really explain about the lady in white. Here is the video I made with my teammates and I hope you like it.

Bag making - Textiles
Hello everyone, this textile we have been working on the bag we are making. I haven't started sewing my bag yet but sooner I will, I only have cut the stakeholder one bag and I'm still working on what would stakeholder would have.
Stakeholder 2 should have looked like this, but we don't have any materials that are pink and blue.

Filtration Experiment
Hello everyone, Today we are doing a filter experiment. We have a filter paper to filter the chemical we are experimenting, and no we can't drink it because we don't know if it's clean. At first, we have to put the blue transparent liquid and the name is copper sulfate. We add the transparent chemical which is sodium carbonate. when we stirred it looks like a blue opaque liquid.
Aim: To Separate a solution from a precipitate (precipitate is the name for a solid that forms in a liquid during a chemical reaction).
Hypothesis: what do you think will happen...
I think that the dirty things to the chemical will stay at the filter paper and the bottom will be clear.
Method:
1. Pour approximately 50mL of copper sulfate solution into a beaker.
2. Add the same volume of sodium carbonate solution. A reaction will happen, you should see a cloudy blue precipitate form. Called copper carbonate.
3. Watch demo then fold filter paper to fit inside the funnel
4. Place the funnel with the filter paper inside of it, into the mouth of a conical flask.
5. Stir the mixture in the beaker, then carefully pour it into the funnel.
6. Observe what happened.
Observations and Discussion: what you saw happen and why do you think it happened...
Equipment:
Sodium carbonate
Copper sulfate
Conical flask
Stirring Rod
200mL Beaker
Funnel
Filter paper
