Write that essay

 The Adverb Sentence:

Adverbs describe verbs. e.g Surprisingly, confusingly, firstly, remarkably, often

Adverb sentence starters add interest or intrigue to our work.

Remember the rule: when you start a sentence with an adverb, place a comma after the adverb then write the rest of the sentence

Examples: Accidentally, shockingly, concerningly, excitingly, significantly, similarly, and simply.

Other types of examples: Against, between, over, behind, within, under, below, at, for, throughout, near, about

A preposition gives location or movement

Remember the rule: when you start the sentence with a preposition, you need to put a comma when the movement or position ends.

Preposition sentence examples:

In the beginning, we talked alot.

throughout the lesson, I tried to not fall asleep.

near, the basketball court, is the rubbish bin.

Under, my bed, I found my clothes.

Over, the hill, she waited.

Up, on the bridge, we talked.

During, interval we played.

Inside, we worked independently.

Outside, we ran to class


Here is what an adverb sentence might look like:

Firstly, I woke up early today

Simply, this morning I put on my uniform

Remarkably, I came to school early

Luckily, my friends came just on time

Swiftly, we ran to our next class 

Quietly, we were given our sitting plan

Lastly, we went on writing this

Dirty water experiment

 Hello, for chemistry we made dirty water

Method:

  1. Method:

    1. Use a 250mL beaker to get 200mL of water.

    2. Add 2 spoonfuls of dirt.

    3. Add 10mL of oil.

    4. Add a spoonful of pebbles

    5. Stir it for 2mins.

    6. Label a piece of paper with your names and place it under your beaker.

    7. Take a photo of your experiment.

    Early finishers can finish off a google doc

In the end, the water didn't turn out as good as expected 


Dirty water experiment 2
A week later we cleaned the water even more
here is the method we used
  1. Stir your dirty water for 1min.

  2. Using a measuring cylinder, measure 100mL of your dirty water into another beaker.

  3. Add 100mL of water to the dirty water.

  4. Stir for 2mins.

  5. Discard the original 100mL of dirty water.

  6. Repeat again.

  7. Take a photo of your experiment.



And here is the setup for our next experiment

We put a cloth on a funnel over another funnel that has filter paper in it, the cloth is used to get rid of dirt, and the filter paper is used to get rid of small particles.
this has made a huge improvement to the water as now we can't see a single piece of dirt.
