Business and Enterprise

Business and Enterprise are based on creating products and selling them and the objective of business and enterprise is to make more money than you started with thus making a profit. 

There are 4 roles we had while working on this project, the CEO is the head of the company, their job is to ensure everyone is on track with their roles and to make choices, the next role is marketing manager, this role is important because they decide and order what we need to make out product, following up is the production manager, what the production manager does is make the product till we have enough to make a profit, and the last is the finance manager, the finance manager takes care of the money on market day and takes care of our budget.

During the market day, I've learned that its important to know what the customers desire before you actually decide and to see if it's actually enjoyable for the price, our company decided to go with sherbet and we knew what flavors to choose because we gave out a poll to people with different interests so we know what is better.

Forensics Blood Splatter

 Hello, during forensics we have been taught about the patterns and how to calculate blood splatter. Blood spatter has two parts, the base, and the spine, the spine is the spikes that emerge from the blood, the spine is useful because it can determine how much energy was in the blood for example blood with no spines would most likely be from down to the knee while blood with vast spines the blood should have come off the head. the base is useful for calculating which direction the blood came from by measuring the width and length and putting it in this formula: Sin-1 (width/length) = answer.

Here is the work I have done on about blood splatters.

Forensic science Week 1 reflection

Forensic science is based on solving a murder using what's left behind at the scene. This job is important but risky because it helps us find out who is guilty to prevent it from happening again some other time, but it's risky because the suspect could frame the crime on someone else or the case could not be solved. Forensic scientists are the type of people that take part in this job, their roles are to find clues and solve them at the crime scene, these clues can be put into categories but they are overall useful, the best clues that can be found are either blood, skin cells, hair, clothing, etc, these are useful because they contain DNA, using DNA you can identify the suspect because all DNA is different for everyone making the identification sharper, but clues like footprints and tire tracks are also great because they can lead to the direction of the suspect. There are words that can be used for forensic science and you might have heard of them before, these keywords are victim, suspect, weapons, evidence, law, analysis, and genetic identification.

Is it a crime?

 

For forensics, we have been addressing what is a crime and what isn't

these are good examples

The first one is most likely a crime but the car might be his, the second one could not be a crime, the third one is 100% a crime but he could just be "taking the money to the bank", the fourth one is either murder or he's just a pirate :) probably, the fifth one is murder, suicide or someone just spray-painted it, the last one is not a crime but it could be intentional that he crashed into him.

One challenge I found hard is doing the somersault to land on my feet but eventually, I landed the somersault.

What I'm proud of what I did is learning to do more than half of the skills we were taught.

Here is my assessment form.

Coggle Brainstorm #3

Hello, I've made another coggle brainstorm for English, this one is about paying students to go to school.

Climate change is NOT a Lie

Climate change is NOT a lie, I don't think it is a lie because it has already been proven that it's real. Check this out. Scientists, and also others have shown the world that the atmosphere, the air we breathe is warming up with Carbon dioxide. As the air gets more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, the air will become more toxic to inhale. Not only that, the environment will be in danger, the animals will have become extinct, there will be a higher risk of wildfires, and why would you try to colonize a whole new planet that is mars, instead of repairing a planet that's already dying. With more trees dying, the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is taking over faster. Humans are causing all this, thanks to us it's getting worse because people are tearing down habitats for more land, and more. Right now people are mutilating forests for wood, this is called deforestation and it's getting worse. The oceans will rise due to the ice melting to the growing heat, because of climate change. again, the ice is melting causing animals that used to live there to become extinct thanks to climate change. Here are all the reasons why climate change is serious and why it should be stopped.

 

Making a political party

Hello, for social studies we made a political party in groups of 3 to 6, our group was called mufti party because we say mufti will solve equality, some of our policies are no more kai time but not as you think, no more uniform, shorter time for some subjects, a longer time for some subjects, and quicker leaving time

our slogan was "try us you'll like us" but then we changed it to "equality is a need"

Our group is made of 4 people including Me, Isaiah, Sam, and Manaia

Our logo was a t shirt with our name over it

Concept of Heat

Hello, for chemistry, our class has been learning about the effects of heat, there are four new words that we have learned about, they are conduction, convection, contraction, and expansion, here are their meanings.

Conduction is when the heat travels through the solid causing it to vibrate.

Convection is the same but it travels through a gas or liquid.

Contraction is when the solid becomes smaller, this happens when you cool it.

Expansion is the opposite, including the part when you cool it.

Examples: 

When you heat up a cube the cube becomes larger this is an expansion.

When the heat goes through the cube this will make it vibrate, this is called conduction.

When you cool the cube it will become smaller than it originally was, this is called contraction.

When you heat up a liquid, that will be called convection.

We have also done some experiments that explained these they used these: Contraction (imploding can), Expansion (ball and hoop), Conduction (dropping pins), Convection in liquid (permanganate crystal in water), Convection in gas (tea bag rockets)

Detailed Explanation

Conduction

Expansion and Contraction
