great walks of nz

this is my thing, which I had about an hour to do. I enjoyed this because researching things is fun. I did this because my teacher told me to. i do not like walking but i like nature, and i find keas funny.

 

Dixon house

At Dixon's house, I met a bunch of old people. I probably haven't told you, but it is an old folk home. If you do not know what an old folks home is, it is people that have retired who go to spend the rest of their lives, which for some old folks, is not actually that long. The first person I met was an old man, who could barely hear and had slurred words that I could barely hear. He was a miner. The next person I talked to was an old woman who was still quite sharp. She was a teacher and had taught at some Blacktown schools. A short while after starting to talk to her, I went to get a drink, then I went back to her and continued the conversation. When we had to leave I was kind of sad because I liked being with the old folks. I feel kind of sorry for people so old they have compromised almost everything, because it is not nice for people to have those problems, also, if I live that long, I will also get those problems.

kinetic and potentual energy project/ video

 

for this project, I made something, made a video, and edited the video. it took around about 2/3 hours( or somewhere inbetween)

the differences and similarities between kinetic and potential energy

this is an activity that I did involving potential and kinetic energy, the differences, and the similarities.
 

Just saying

 earlier this year there was a nitrogen fertilizer explosion.

the thing that detonated the ammonia nitrate was the fire that was going for some seconds. ammonia nitrate is explosive in the right condition. the fire crew that came couldn't put out the fire before the detonation or the fire would have been less costly and fewer casualties would have happened. other things in the nitrogen-based fertilizer was nitric acid, hydroxylammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate, and sodium nitrate. the most explosive thing was the ammonium nitrate with the yellow on the fire diamond as a 3.

capter the golden eagle

 

this is a game I have made, I hope you try it and like.

capture the golden eagle

playtime: until one team wins

number of players:

• a standard-bearer for each legion
• one ref
• the same amount of legionaries for each legion and there are at least two legions
• a praeter for each legion

Equipment:

• one whistle ( for the ref)
• a golden eagle for each team
• something to mark out the sides for each team

rules:

• each praeter is elected by legion the person elected is in
• each standard-bearer is chosen by the praeter in their team
• when someone gets tagged, the person tagged drops whatever is in the person's hands(if they are holding a component of the game) and they will stand where they are for 120 seconds then the person will go to the side they are one and will be able to go back (Mabey to try whatever they were doing earlier) and if you are a standard-bearer  you drop the golden eagle and cannot pick it up except from the ground and cannot tag
• the praeter and legionaries get tagged on their enemies side and standard-bearers get tagged on their side
• standard-bearers cannot go to the enemy's side( because if the eagle goes to its owner's enemy's side the game is won by the side it is taken to.) 
•  if someone disobeys their praeter, the person that disobeys the praeter will get taken out of the game, unless of course, the order is unreasonable.

how to play:

1. get the people to play
2. get the items to play
3. set up the play area as shown below
   
   
   
4. split into legions
5. each legion elects their praeter
6. each preater chooses their legions standard-bearer (the standard-bearer chosen has to be from the same legion as the praeter choosing it.)
7. the praeters discuss the strat with the legion they are in
8.  each legion gathers on their side with the standard-bearer
9. the ref starts the game by saying "Senates Popolusque Romanus!"
10. each legion try to act out their strat and win
11. the game ends when one side has both golden eagles in it
12. the winner and losing praeter shake hands and the standard-bearers shake hands
