Our first sience unit

This is my lab report:

Reflection:

Next time, I would like more mirrors, beacause it would be harder to hit the right space that would reflect to the cards.

Next, while we were learning about transparent translusent and opaque, we made stain glass windows. The transparent part, was the “protection holding the paint in”. The translucent, was the part were the light travels through, and it lights up the different coulors. the opaqe, was not actually the same part as in a real stain glass window, but we used it like another translucent, but the light could not get through. In a real stain glass window, the opaque would just be the seperator of the different coulors.


This is when we were learning about reflecting light:

When light gets reflected onto rippled water, the water can ripple the picture like this:

body of water

When light gets refracted, the light moves slower, making pictures that arent actually there. Light moves slowly in water, wich is why a wise spear fisherman wont throw a spear exactly where he sees the fish.

Reflection of learning:

I loved this unit, though I think next unit I will want to do more experiments, and less worksheets.

Rating

I rate this unit eight :)s and two :(s out of ten.

My First Recount (At elmhirsts resort)

I was more than excited… until I remembered about the car drive. I asked my dad and he told me… 3 HOURS!?! This was too much for me. I started to tremble. I was worried. I wasn’t expecting that long a drive!  But when we pulled into the driveway and I saw the playgrounds, the cottages, the pools, the restaurant and the beach, I started to feel like it was worth it.

F irst we checked out the cottage, which was more like a house. It looked strangely like the inside of a mansion (but of course smaller) We unpacked, read books, because we hadn’t planned anything yet, and chose our rooms. For dinner, me and my family had lasagna. It was amazing! So soft. The edges were just the right amount crunchy… Mmmmm…

T he next day, when we felt the damp grass, I went to the indoor pool, which was warm, but we couldn’t dive. Disappointing. So instead, we just swam. We also watched Honey, I shrunk the kids, and went canoeing with my sister and dad. I was in the stern for half of the ride, but after, when I started to get tired, the stern went to my dad; and we went by a personal island. It said it was owned by “The Johns”.

Next, we went ax throwing for a bit, and in about 2 hours we went swimming, and then built a boat. It worked well. I could paddle as long as I wanted!

Finally, we went home. On the way, we ate lunch at a breakfast restaurant. I had a chicken ceaser wrap. I almost ate too much! When we finally got pack to Ontario, we only had to drive for 10 more minutes! On the highway, I had fun on my tablet (iPad) for the last 5 minutes! Just kidding. I was playing for about half the time. When we got back home, I was exhausted, and sad that we had left; but after, we had to unpack. (My least favorite part of all that fun.) I loved it. I hope to go to elmhirts resort again next you.
