Coraline camera shots

In Coraline camera shots and angles are effective.

For example, the close-up shot is used to show an object.

This makes the audience think that this object of importances.

The director did this to show that the object may be important later in the film.

This reminds me of the scene where they give the buttons to Coraline but that was a bad scene and this was a good scene.

In art, we are making a stop motion video In my group were Jodecy, Zayd and Mitchell.  

Our group's story is about Danny Devito taking sherk trash and it is valuable to Shrek. Perry the platypus help Danny Devito to become nice and to stop taking Shreks trash. Perry the platypus also helps Sherk to be patient and calm while he waits for Perry to sort out Danny Devito.

Our Manaakitanga in our story is about people teaching other people to not steal, to be patient and work together.    

Dissolving experiment

Dissolving experiment

Aim: 

To see if salt or baking soda it dissolves more

Hypothesis: 

I think that  baking soda will dissolve more salt 

Equipment:  

a 250ml beaker cylinder 

100 ml measuring cylinder 

salt 

baking soda 

a steering rod  steering rod 

a teaspoon

a ruler

method:

1. Add 20mL of sulfuric acid to a 100mL beaker. Heat to 70degrees. Turn off your bunsen.
2. Once heated, use a spatula to add pea-sized portions of copper oxide. Stir for 30secs
3. Repeat step 2 until no more dissolved.
4. Fold filter paper and place it in the funnel. Place the funnel in the second beaker.
5. Make sure your first beaker is cool enough to hold and then pour it into the funnel. Gently swirl and allow to filter through.
6. Rinse the beaker and fill with 50mL of water and place it on the tripod. 
7. Place the evaporating basin on top of the beaker and pour some solution in.
8. Gently heat until the solution has reduced by half.
9. Take off heat and allow to cool.

Separating a Mixture using Evaporation:

Aim: We are trying to separate the mixture evaporating it.

Hypothesis: it will turn to crystals

Equipment: Copper sulfate solution, 250mL Beaker, heatproof mat, evaporating basin, element. 

Method: 

1. Set up element
2. Add 100mL of hot water to the beaker and place on the element.
3. Add copper sulfate to the evaporating basin until it is quarter full.
4. Carefully, place the evaporating basin on top of the beaker. 
5. Turn on the element to 8
6. Heat the solution until most of the solvent has been evaporated and crystals of solute are forming. 
7. Turn off the element- careful not to touch as will be hot for a long time.

Observations: It is boiling

Conclusion: yes

Discussion

Evaluation: Did you enjoy the experiment? Why? What would you do differently next time?
