Taha Wairua - Kindness
In Health we are learning about Taha Wairua (Spiritual Well-Being). Spiritual Well-Being is about your beliefs, values and connect to your whakapapa/ancestry. So this week we for Taha Wairua we are looking at kindness and are doing the RAK (Random Acts of Kindness) practice. For mine random act of kindness I will be helping people with their school work. It is important to show kindness to others because then others we show kindness in return.
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.

Hurumanu 3 - Solubility Experiment
Solubility Experiment
Aim: To see if Salt or Baking Soda dissolves more in water.
Hypothesis: I think that Baking Soda will dissolve more than Salt.
Equipment: A 250 mL beaker, 100 mL measuring cylinder, salt, baking soda, a stirring rod, a teaspoon and a ruler.
Method:
1. Fill the beaker with 100 mL of tap water.
2. Add a level teaspoon of baking soda. (A level teaspoon is obtained by running your ruler across the teaspoon).
3. Stir the solution until all of the baking soda has dissolved.
4. Repeat step 2 and 3 until no more baking soda will dissolve into the solution.
5. Record how many teaspoons of baking soda were added.
6. Repeat the experiment, with the table salt.
Results:
Solute | Number of teaspoons that dissolve in 80 ml of water |
Baking soda | 3 |
Salt | 3 |
Discussion: This experiment involved dissolving baking soda and salt in water. We pour 1 tea spoon at a time into the water to see how many teaspoons it took until it stopped dissolving.
Conclusion: I thought that salt would dissolve more than baking soda. But my hypothesis was incorrect but the overall experiment was a success.

P.E. - Athlectics
P.E. - Athletics
Today in P.E. we are learning to properly throw a discus and how to do a fosbury flop.
We first learnt the proper way to hold and throw a discus. We held it and rolled it to our partner then we lined up and threw the discus. After we finished with discus we went into the gym to practise high jump. We lined up and did the fosbury flop. We all participated and had a good time. Because the bar was not there so there was no pressure to jump over it. Then we did it again but jumping off one foot that was more difficult. But at the end I now know how to properly throw a discus and to do the fosbury flop. I really enjoyed P.E. today because the lesson was broken down and really easy to understand.
