Cells

In Science we have been learning about the living world, Animal and Plant cells. The things that are in the animals cells are, Nucleus, Cell membrane, mitochondria, cytoplasm, vacuole and nuclear membrane. The only things that is different from each cell is that the plant cell requires more things such as, cell wall, chloroplast and large vacuole. We then had to draw a animal cell and plant cell, we then had to label them in the correct order.  We then had to describe the different types of parts and function of a cell. 

We then used a microscope and put it through a leaf to see what it would look like.  We took some photos, and it was really interesting to see the leaf close up. We used three different types of leaf, that my teacher grabbed from outside my classroom. We put the microscope at the back of our phones, then placed the phone on the different types of leaves to see the difference between the three leafs that we took. 

Science summary of term 1

In Science we have been learning about the layers of earth.  One thing I have learnt about the layers of earth is that there is four layers of earth which are called, Crust, Mantle, Outer Core and Inner Core. Crust is the outer layer of the earth, which is where we live. The mantle is the thickest layer, it is 2,900 km thick. Outer core is made out of Iron and Nickel but mostly made out of Iron. Inner core is the hottest and most deepest parts of the earth.


We have also been learning about the continental drift and plate tectonics. One of the biggest continent is Pangea. The plate tectonic is divided into several plates, which sits above the layers of earth. There are three types of plate tectonic boundary which are, Convergent, Divergent and Transform. They are the three main plate boundary. Convergent is when the two plates can come towards one another. Divergent is when two plates move away from each other and form a new crust, forming the magma between the two plates. Transform is the movement that moves sideways. 

That are some things my class and I have learnt. It was really fun to learn about the layers of earth, and how deep and how thick they are. Also learning about the plate tectonics, and what the three main plate boundary. I can't wait to see what else has in stored for me in science

Science Experiance

We had the opportunity to try out an experience using, backing soda, food colouring and vinegar.  It was a little experience showing what it would look like if we add baking soda into a vinegar.  In my group was Sabrina, Myztique, Jonathan and Walter.  It was a great experience, especially when it's our first experience in science.  I felt like everyone in my group enjoyed our experience, here is a snippet of how our experience turned out.

This term we have been learning about science experiment and what soild, liquid and gas. we had to  create a animation about the 3 main state of matter. hope you enjoy.
