The Oak Apricot is my favourite packaging because it uses 0g of fat and Apricots are considered to be one of my favourites.







Requirements:
Tne legal requirements are labelling and composition information that helps consumers what to buy. The Packaging contains what is used in the product.

• date marking
• name or description of the food
• name and address of the business
• warning and advisory statements
• ingredients list
• percentage labelling
• nutrition information panel
• use and storage direction.

What Do The label Tell Us?:

The ingredients used in a product. It contains certain ingredients that may be allergic to the buyers.

What are the two first on the list of ingredients? Why are they named first?

Apricot water because it has more portion used in the making.

LO: describe seperation via chromatography.

This week's experiment actually worked because we used the water as the solvent and the felt tip pens, solute. Since the felt tip pens contained more pigment, the solvent instantly travelled up the solute and dissolved into the pigment causing the colours to spread out and stretch.

Unlike last week's experiment. The experiment kinda failed for we used crushed leaves as the solute and ethanol as the solvent. Since we needed to grind the leaves to make a paste, it took my group to transform our batches of leaves into a runny paste. Eventually adding in the ethanol with the grind up leaves, the pigment gradually began to pour out, a brown pigment from green leaves.

Placing the brown solute onto the paper, the ethanol didn't really dissolve it instead it camouflaged with the solvent and was almost transparent.

Between the two experiments, this week's experiment was a success.

The different pigments have different sizes of particles and are carried at different speeds. That's why the blue was being outstretched first into the paper because it was the lightest pigment with a very decent amount.

Dilution Series

Aim: Investigating diluting a solution

Purifying Water

       26th Monday, February 2018
 L.O: Design and carry out an experiment.
LO2: Explain separation via filtration

Aim: 
To attempt purifying dirty water alongside, carrying out the discussed plan to construct the process.

Materials:

• Paper Towels 
• 1 Bottle
• 2 Plastic Cups
• 1 Thread Of String
• Cup Of Muddy Water
• Cotton Balls

Steps:

• We laid out our given equipment provided in ice-cream containers, Sarah began to cut out the bottom end of the bottle in order to initiate our plan.

• Since the bottle was so thick and hard to cut through with blunt scissors, we came up with an idea to bend the bottle to make a flat surface so that the scissors could break through.

• After successfully cutting the bottom half of the bottle, we began to stuff numerous of tissue papers/ cotton balls in the process of purifying the dirty water.

• After doing so, Sarah helped me tie the rope around the cloth to cover the opening where the dirty water will soak through. 

• Successfully finishing the process of purifying the dirty water, the wet substance slowly soaked through the cloth due to the dirt and tiny rocks clogging its flow. Little by little, the plastic cup was slowly being filled with more clearer water.

Edit: Refiltering the previous purified water, I noticed how the water soaked through the cloth more quickly than last time. Having no dirt or sand mixed with the water, it's flow was faster than usual.

Observation: On our third refilter, we changed the paper towels because the tiny particles of dirt hidden within the filtered water might flow within the water once poured again. The water has become a tad lighter than before.

Conservation Haiku

Aim: Create a Haiku poem about Conservation

Method:

1. Search for words that relate or can describe 'Conservation', each should have the minimum of syllables that can make 5 on a line.
2. Create a Haiku poem (5 syllables first line, 7 syllables second line, 5 syllables third line.)
3. Share it with the teacher.

The leaves of a tree

bound with the Earth's dirt and soil

Conservation breaths.

Conservation

Aim: Find out what other people think what Conservation might mean.

Method:

1. Write down what I think conservation might mean.
2. Find six people and ask what it means to them.
3. Record their thoughts on a table and gather the information.
4. Discover the similarities and differences within the given information.
5. Once I've gathered all the information I will present this in my blog.
6. Include the Department Of Conservation at the end of my presentation.

My Understanding:

From what I think, Conservation means when people try to sustain the world and keep the environment green and healthy.

The Six Interviewed Students/ Teacher:

Conservation is about making sure that our world is sustainable. so that means using our resources and replenishing them. making sure that the lifeform on earth are protected and that they don't go extinct. Lifeform means both plants and living animals. Making sure that our world around us is not polluted, not killing things, not polluting things and looking after our world. -Mr. Stock

Conservation is maintaining the earth and each living animal including plants. -Erica

Conservation is ensuring the sustainability of our action for the environment. -Nathan

I think it’s about sustainability and saving the nation. -Meagan

I think conservation is a way to preserve and control a certain thing so they last for a long period of time. -Zac

I think conservation where you don't waste things like you don't drink half of the water and pour the rest out. -Joel

Similarities: From what I recorded, everyone has said that conservation is all about maintaining plants, earth, and animals keeping them alive and not polluting the oceans. The similarity within their replies, conservation to them is maintaining the earth's lifecycle and plants/animals.

Differences: Some mentioned plants while some only included the nation and animals, Zac and Joel's thoughts were different from the rest as they talked about controlling a certain thing and spilling the contents of a half-full glass of water, They didn't mention anything about maintaining the earth and living plants/animals, their thoughts of 'Conservation' is different from the other's understanding.

Definition:

"The Department of Conservation (DOC) (Māori: Te Papa Atawhai) is the public service department of New Zealand charged with the conservation of New Zealand's natural and historical heritage. An advisory body, the New Zealand Conservation Authority (NZCA) is provided to advise DOC and its ministers".

Netiquette

We were learning Netiquette, manners and rules when going online. This is what I learnt and took note of:

Digital etiquette or netiquette is a set of rules for how to behave online. It's a conduct for having good
manners in treating others with common courtesy and respect.
It's just as important in our digital lives including how we act online games. or how we communicate in emails and send messages in chat rooms and on message boards blogs and social networking sites.
Some people may loose control the second they jump online, Like when they disagree with someone or have strong feelings about a certain topic. They end up saying stuff they'd never say in person.
They may send rude emails and items to start arguments on message boards. It is called flaming, it can lead to full on flame wars insulting arguments between two or more users.
Some people look for opportunities online to start a flame war for fun.
They are called troublemakers trolls.
On the internet it's pretty easy to stay anonymous or identified. Having a secret identity to hide behind can make people pretty brave. But we forget that we are dealing with a real human being.
Always treat people how they want to be treated, You wouldn't want somebody to be rude to you so don't be rude to anyone else.
Netiquette isn't just about being nice, it's also about communicating clearly.
That also means keeping emails clear into the point. it also means making your messages easy to read and understand which can depend on your audience.
Do not write in capital letters because in the internet it means that you're yelling.
Also keep in mind that humor isn't always obvious in writing. Without seeing facial expression when hearing someone's voice, it can be hard to tell the difference in a friendly joke and real cruelty.
To make sure you are communicating clearly, reread the what you write before sending it. Check your tone grammar and spelling to make sure you really need to say what you've written.
And once your message is out, it's out.
Lastly make sure you ask permission before posting anything about your friends on a blog or social networking site. People's personal information is private and you can really ruin relationships if you posed something that a friend or friends parents don't want on the web.
The internet is not a private place.
