Music term 2 2019/6/13

In the today music hurumanu, Mr. Mitchell has taught us something about the guitar. Mr. Mitchell taught us that there are lots of different types of guitars. There are nylon string guitars, that means that the guitar has nylon strings on it, then the other guitar was steel string guitar which means that they have steel strings on them. Also, we saw a backpackers guitar that means that the guitar has small body also we can take it places like on the plane. 

 At the first of hurumanu, we have listened to lots of different types of music. There was rock, heavy metal, and punk rock and lots of lot, and my favorite was Hip Hop

Mars

How to get to Mars

Aim: To learn about Mars exploration.

1. Rover facts 
2. Design, Draw and Make a Rover
3. Mars facts

1. Rover facts: 

What are the 5 parts for? 
Link: Rovers 5 parts

Fill in the table below.

Name:	Purpose:
Wheels	Rover has six wheels, each with its own individual motor. the front two wheels and rear wheels also have individual motor, the four-wheel steering allows the rover to make arcing turns.
Solar Panel	The Mars 2020 rover requires electrical power to operate. if there is no power the rover cannot move, the heat from MMRTG also used to keep rover's tools their correct operating temperatures.
Laser	that laser was helped rover’s robotic arm to analyzed the vaporized rock to reveal its elemental composition.
Camera	the camera on the rover was like an eye it can tack picture then the people in the earth can see what was on the mars.
Shovel, rock pick, drill	the shovel, rock pick, and drill were helped rover to gather samples from the rocks.

2. In groups of 3 you will Design, Draw and Make a Mars Rover out of Lego Technics.
Materials:

1. Lego Technics
2. A4 paper
3. Pencil
4. Ruler
5. Eraser

The drawing and model must have:

• 6 wheels
• 1 camera
• 1 tool at the front than includes a shovel, pick and drill.
• 1 solar panel
• 1 laser that points at the ground

 ( Take a photo and upload  your mars rover onto your blog.)

science Nature of plants

AIM: TO LEARN ABOUT THE NATURE OF PLANTS

Carnivorous Plants

Plants fall into two categories:

2. Deciduous

Deciduous

Evergreen

Find three examples of each:

Evergreen: 

1.  pine tree 

2.hemlock

3.  blue spruce

Deciduous;

1.  oak 

2.   maple 

3.  beech

LEAVES

Simple                                 Compound   

Activity: Choose a leaf and do a leaf rubbing. Once you have done the rubbing, cut it out and glue it on the tree.
