~ RAMEN ROCKETS ~

 Hiya Ashers!

For inquiry, as you know, we were making and launching rockets! We had to make a video of the prosses, and of course, post it on our blogs!

Me, my friend Tamzin, Leticia and nikita, 

~ A SCIENCE... review? ~

Kia Ora Ashes!

Fir literacy, you all know we've been doing science.  But I didn't complete my experiment on time :( So instead of writing a report of my experiment, I wrote a review on other people's research.

 

To the review:

I'm not bothered to embed docs anymore, they're too small, I don't know how o change the size and you can't read it. So links will have to do.

Anyway:

Minecraft Education! ~

 Hey Ashes!

For literacy, We're doing science.

But since we're all doing our experiments at home, we've been doing some other things at school. This week, we were tasked with designing our own module on the International Space Station! On Minecraft education!

We had to first learn about each module, how the ISS works, and take notes! here are my notes:

I'll admit they're a little messy, but I understand them. I used these notes to analyse if the station was missing anything, if there was something I thought the ISS could use. I noticed there was a small, small room off the bottom of the module Trinity, The room is called Cupola, it's a small room used to observe space and the ISS's surroundings, but it's fairly small, looking at it from the animation it looks like it could fit 1 astronaut, maybe 2 if they were small. I decided to design an observation room, a larger room, the same size as the rest of the modules, with a large window at the end to observe space and the ISS's surroundings, it could fit at least 3-4 astronauts and there's plenty of space to write down anything new happening around the ISS.

here's some photo's of my module:

larger so you can read it

I had a lot of fun building the module, though I normally have sticky keys activated, witch meant whenever I tried to fly down by pressing shift it would hold shift even if I wasn't pressing it, so there were multiple times when I flew down much farther then I wanted to. I now turn off sticky keys when I play.

Do you think this was a good module?

I call it, JOR (stands for Jayde's Observation Room)

I hope yo enjoyed reading this post!

I'll see you all next time!

I'M BACK PEOPLES! **Looking north**

Hiya Ashes! yes, you're ashes now.

How has everyone been this last week? I've been good personally.  I've been counting the day's until I only need to wear my retainer at nighttime XD (Monday next week lol) I can't wait!

Anyway, Onto the post.

For literacy. We've been designing out own science experiments! I'm doing one focused on one star, you guys can know the details next week when I've finished the experiment. Anyway, I'm looking at "bright star" From the picture below:

 

(I don't know what star (or planet) "Bright Star" is, so if you have any ideas tell me in the comments it might be useful.) I'm trying to figure out how to take better pictures. I've been using my mum's phone but it's still not the best. (again, any suggestions?) 

I can't wait to share the whole experiment with you guys.

For inquiry (we recently finished that) We were learning, designing, making, and launching rockets! not real ones, of course, But it was a lot of fun! I'm gonna do a whole post about this later because it's got a lot, and We're still making the final video. 

I also can't wait to share that with you.

Anyway, I hope you all enjoyed reading this post and are just as exited as I am to share more with you all. I'll see you Ashes later!
