What did Hitler says about Jews? | Social studies

Hello everyone, on social studies, we are looking at why Hitler hates Jews or how Hitler viewed the Jews. We look at the quotes that Hitler wrote and what does he mean. 

"The Jews were responsible for bringing negroes into the Rhineland with the ultimate idea of bastarding (lowering the quality of) the white race which they hate and thus lowering its cultural and political level so the Jew might dominate" 

The quote is about Hitler blaming the Jews for how they ruined the white race and lowering their culture. Hitler is saying that Jews are evil and should not let them dominate their country because Hitler said that Jew doesn't like white people and they want to lower their race. Hitler thinks that if Jews take over they want their country to weaken.

- Gauze Mat
- Glass rod
Method: 
  1. Squish kiwi fruit with sand with water and pour through the cloth to collect the juice in the beaker. 
  2. Use the beaker to warm the water, pour juice into the test tube with 2 drops of dishwashing liquid and rest in warm water. 
  3. Add Ethanol, watch the DNA separate and collect with a spatula.

The Great Depression 1929

Hello everyone, in Social studies we are learning about The holocaust.

Germany was hit the hardest during the depression because of how much loan they owe. They were told to pay billions of dollars in reparations to the allies. Many people lost their jobs and their economy fell. 

Germany has to accept full responsibility for starting world war 1 and pay for the debt they own or allied for the war they lost. They have to agree to any terms and the significant ones were the reparations, reduction in Germany military and ownership. Their army was reduced to 100 thousand. They have to get rid of a lot of their submarines, military aircraft and artillery. The treaty was one of the reasons that Hitler and the Nazi power got into power to get rid of the Chains of Versailles. This is what Germany has to accept and agree on.

In 1929 - 33 New Zealand was also affected by the depression when export prices began to plummet and fall down to 45%. As an arguited county this has a huge impact.

Land Yacht - Science

Hello Everyone, in science we made a land yacht. We are working on Forces and motion and making a land yacht is a good example of this topic.  

Aim: Our goal is to make our land yacht and who will be the faster. 
Method: Cart, card box, Plastic bag, stick and strings. 

Result: Our distance was 4.5m and our time was 7.3sec. We have to divide them together and get our score. Our score was 0.61. 

How to calculate - 
v = d/t 
v (speed) d (distance) t (time)

Conclusion: The air passed through our bow in the front of our boat. The air goes in our plastic bag and the air moves our land yacht.

Rubbish Collection Diary | Social studies

Hello everyone, in social studies we are working on graphing, we have to collect data to know how much waste we have thrown into our rubbishes.  I didn't really collect any data since I have forgotten to collect the data. I use someone else's one since I've forgotten to track my data. There are questions asked when we finished our graph but first, this is the graph that I made. 


Q1: What can be done to reduce what goes in your rubbish bin?
We can reduce waste by eating less or use more recyclable things. 
Q2: Where was the majority of your waste going Organics/Rubbish/Recycling? 
Well, this person waste is mostly going to rubbish. 
Q3: Did you find one day had more waste than the other day? Why was this? 
Yes because they have been eating something that is more recyclable or something that goes in the waste more.
