Battieries say whaaaaa?

Welcome to my blog,

In this unit in "Fuel," we were discovering batteries, now even though the unit was only one week long we still learned quite a few things about batteries. From electrodes to electrolytes, from electric cranes to tesla power walls. We covered it all. I changed my experiment quite a few times. I still got it done though, let's take a look into the journey of a battery!

So for staters we watched Will, destroy a pencil sharpener (Cool right!) to see the motor on the inside. Once we opened the magnet we discovered that there was a copper coil, and 2 big magnets creating electricity to make the motor work!

Will then, showed us what electrolytes were. We were given the challenge of creating a battery use two types of metals, and 2 electrolytes. At first, I was going to use, coconut water, then I changed my mind and decided to use salted coconut water! That was for my first attempt though, for my second attempt. I used salted vinegar, this came out amazing! Smelly, but amazing.

The procedure was simple, get our electrolytes (Salted coconut water & vinegar) and put them into a bowl one at a time of course, from there I then waited and started writing about the procedure we were doing. Once it was my time to use the Multimeter (used to measure electrical currents) I got some not-so-shocking results. I was aiming for.400 volts, and I ended up only getting just under .300 volts. I belive that if we were to link all the batteries in the class together we'd be able to power a small lightbuld!

The results from my Multimeter.

I part with saying this, we are all inventers, its up to us to make the change we want in this world. Our generation, is the next Elon Musk, and Jeffory Bezos. All it takes is a little energerning and a little elbow grease which I know that we all have, to invent something so revolutanry, it'll change the world. So to all those little Elon's and the little Kamala's Harris' you too can be the future, do what need to be done to revoltunize the world.

Thank you for reading my blog.

Sincerly,

LJ.

Plagues - How deadly are they?

Welcome to My Blog on Disease! In this unit of my STEAM course, Disease , we dove into the classification and impact of diseases—learning about endemics, sporadic cases, epidemics, pandemics, and more. We explored methods to combat these threats, starting with a Model UN simulation on handling a zombie apocalypse, where I represented the UK. Though my country survived, we ended up in massive debt, a clear reminder of the challenges leaders face even with ample resources. For our Action Project, we each selected a disease and researched a specific historical outbreak. The task was to create a newspaper article explaining the disease's spread, impact, and prevention measures. I chose to focus on the Bubonic Plague and crafted a news story to communicate what caused its devastating outbreak, how it was controlled, and how similar outbreaks can be prevented today. Through this project, I discovered fascinating details about the Black Plague’s deadly rampage across Europe in the 1300s....

In this Spanish unit, we focused on expanding our vocabulary related to food, cooking, and dining. Our goal was to learn and apply food-related terms and phrases, specifically using them in the context of a video demonstration. For the project, I chose a specific dish to showcase, narrating the preparation process to demonstrate my Spanish-speaking skills, the use of the preterit tense, and tú commands. The vocabulary covered an extensive range of food items, cooking utensils, condiments, and kitchen essentials needed to prepare meals. We were also tasked with designing a menu, where we included images of various foods or dishes, each with prices we thought were suitable for a mock restaurant. The process was challenging yet rewarding, particularly in selecting the dish to prepare and recording the audio narration in Spanish while cooking—a task that tested my pronunciation and fluency in a real-time setting. This project not only strengthened my vocabulary but also allowed me to apply...

Star Cards reflection.

Hello Welcome to my blog, this term in Game Changers, we had to look at diffrent games from battle cards, to Magic the gatheing to get insperation to create our own games. I realise now that creating a game is very ambitious e speccially for two weeks but this is what I was able to accomplish. HEY YOU! YES YOU! Do you want to play a game that is both a card game and an amazing battle game? Well you're in luck! We've created an amazing game from both Star Wars and battling to save the galaxy. Will evil prevail.. Or will goodness keep the galaxy in balance. Our game’s name is “STAR CARDS.” The game starts off with 4 cards for every person. You place one card down for each person and you battle each other's cards and the cards that deal the most damage win the round. Our game is a battle cards game, to be quite honest when we first started out i didnt think that i would even be able to finish. The first week was the most teadous, purley because we started bouncing from i...
