Popplet - Said:)

One of our activities this week was to create a word web or Popplet to increase our range of vocabulary. The word we were given was said. I found 43 words that are synonyms for said.

Anisha And Allanah Straw Oboe Experiment

Name: Anisha and Allanah

Title of experiment: Straw oboe experiment

Question:

(What do we want to find out?)

We want to find out that if the straws are smaller why do they have different pitches to each other.Also we want to find out that if we cut big holes in the straws will it still make the sound or will it not work and for me I would love to find out What will happen if the straw gets to small will it work or not.

Hypothesis:  (what do you think will happen?

I think that when we start to cut the holes in the straw it might be a bit too big.Also I think it is going to be really fun and also really noises because this experiment that we are doing is going to be really loud but I hope that you get to do this at home.   

Procedure:

How will we find out?

(Step by step)

first we needed some straws and scissors. then we flatted one edge of the straw with our fingers then we cut one edge of the straw. After that we needed to put the straw in our mouth (the bit we cut ) then we started blowing on the straw and when you do that it makes a really funny and annoying noise after you finished doing that you should start making some little holes on the side of the straw one below the other then put two fingers on top of the holes and start blowing then try taking your fingers on and off and when we finished doing that we started blowing again. Then we tried cutting of little bits of the straw while still blowing the pitch when you are cutting off pieces from the straw it makes a higher and higher pitch every time you cut pieces.That is how we did the straw experiment.

Results:

What actually happened?

When we finished making the straw thing we blew into the straw (the part we cutted) and as we started to blow this kind of annoying wired funny noise came out which really funny to laugh at but as putted a more and more straws onto it,it started to get really hard to blow though but at the end it was really fun.

Conclusions:

What did we learn?

we learnt that when you cut the edges of the straw it makes a noise an annoying and funny noise and when you cut little holes in the side of the straw one below the other (but only two holes) you can make different sound you just need to take your finger on and off and if you cut pieces off it will make a higher pitch every time you cut little pieces off.

Questions:

1. What is producing the sound?

producing sound is when you are blowing into the straw

2. What pitch did we get when all holes were closed, compared to when the holes were

open? When there is no holes in the straw and you start to blow it will go into a high pitch.

3. What does opening or closing a hole in the straw really mean in terms of vibrating an

air column? it means that when the holes are closed or open it means the vibration will do a

4.what happens to the pitch as you cut off pieces off the straw? why?when you cut off pieces of the straw it is higher the pitch is higher

Bryan is only fourteen and he is shy because he is the youngest out of all of them and that was kind of fun for him because he felt really special to be the smallest in the party.

What was Bryan’s reason for taking part in this tramp?

Bryan has took this tramp to meet some new people because he just moved to this school and he wanted to make new friends so he came to this tramp to make news friends and to know more about their lives.

Where about is this group of boys hiking? What is the temperature and climate like at this place?

Tararua Ranges Is Where they had the tramp and it was really cold because he almost wore all his clothes just to go for a hike and he was still cold even if he was wearing all those clothes.

What had Bryan carried in his bag for this trip?

Bryan was carrying clothes Sleeping Bag Nibble Food Group Food and Rice and Sugar and all those things that he took was not really good for him to take because they were all fatty food.

Even though the weather was fine and clear it was cold. Why is it important to keep warm in situations such as this?

It Is really good to keep warm on cold days because if you don’t you could black out or faint or get sick or die or even more that can happen to you so if you go somewhere that is cold -don't forget to stay warm.

After this Fall i think he feels scared cold worried and more but even all does thing can happen but Bryan is injured.

Wednesday:

Do you think the situation Bryan is currently in is dangerous? Why / why not?

I THink he is because he has no food no water no nothing and that is not good for a person that already black out because that could happen to him again.

Predict what you think will happen next?

I THink that Bryan will stand up and go to look for all his stuff and try to call

someone to help him out of there or he might faint.

It seems as though Bryan has now been separated from the rest of his group.

Yes Brian is a long way gone from his group and that is really bad because everyone can't see him or hear him at all.

If you were Bryan would you stay put and wait for someone to rescue you? Or would you seek help?

If That was me i will go and look for my stuff first then i will sit there and wait until someone comes to help him.

How do you think the rest of the group will react to Bryan’s falling and injury?

They Should feel scared that he could of not survive or they must feel sorry for him because let him carry all those stuff and they hold nothing.

Refer to the map on the next page, what information does this give us about where the accident happened and where Brian was found?

Its says that they were walking and then in a few minutes Bryan feel and landed somewhere really far from they were walking.
