Ghost Busters

Ghost busters
Once upon a time there was a happy family named the Henry’s they have been living in the same place since 2020 and weird things have been happening but they never noticed until this day in 2030 where everything is renewed to look like the real future thanks to the brains of the future Benjamin, Owen and James the father of the Henry family.

Mary the mother of the Henry family, she’s mostly an at home mom and very energetic with her chores also never gets bored, Nathan the twin brother of Jack they both play instrument Nathan plays the drums and Jack plays any type of guitar.

They all have had ordinary lives but Mary was the only seeing the things wrong with the house she called as many help for paranormal activity and yet there was nothing to be found, but she never stopped, she kept going until she caught proof of paranormal activity.

Mary showed a tape of the footage that was caught of a whole bookshelf falling on its own, the experts of paranormal activity saw the footage and said “this could be serious,”

They checked that same bookshelf and again no paranormal activity was found so looked closer at the bookshelf, checked every book but one book had stuff in the book written in blood “Leave here, now”         

“Feel the wrath of satan”

Many more messages we're written, and Mary was terrified of what would happen if she told the family.

Hours later the family came home altogether James had to take a day off work so he could here the message, Mary told the family and they we're terrified, so they tried moving out of the house, all the doors in the house slammed closed shut they became trapped in separate rooms, the twins were stuck in their room with no resources except for their toys and other stuff they play with, as they searched their room in their closet they found a secret bunker, in that bunker they found stuff from 1995.

As they read through all the stuff they found “Kamoto Henry the famous ghost buster of the 19th century” they kept reading and they found another news hub news paper and it said “James Henry the future ghost buster to save all problems of paranormal activity” under all the newspapers they found a button “what should we do” Nathan said

Jack pushed the button and another door opened with suits that had the ghostbuster logo on it, they put it on and they grabbed the ghost buster guns, they rushed and used the guns on the doors that were in there way.
As they were busting through doors they heard “AHHHHHHHHH” coming from the sitting room, they ran to the sitting room finding Mary flying in the air with nothing to be found “what do the goggles do?” Jack said

They both put on the goggles and saw what they were up against, a massive muscular ghost and 15 of his slaves, they both were fighting off the little ones first and they all disappeared like flies and then it came to the big one, they shot the big monster thousand times but it didn’t do anything to the ghost they both shot at the same spot then it started doing some work with a mixture of both beams it creates a more stronger shot of force.

The ghost disappeared into the darkness, then they rushed to the basement to find James in a corner with blood rushing down his back, James turned around and he turned out to be possessed and he leaped for the twins and Mary but he was shot by the beams and he became normal “DAD!” the twins said but then he became back to being possessed and he said “you will never get your father back!” the possessed body said

They kept on shooting, the sun started coming up “AAAAAHHH!” posses James said


It turns out that James is not use to the sun, they shot James again so that he would stay in the sun, he started flying in front of the sun and he fell down on the ground coughing, then he was taken to the hospital where he could treated good medicine and have a good recovery, as he was in a coma for about 5 months but he eventually came back and had time with his family again in a brand new mansion from the thanks of the president and Jack and Nathan became paranormal Heroes The Ghost Busters.

Letter To Kaikoura

To the people of Kaikoura

I have recently heard that two people passed away, I have alse heard the you were hit by a 7.5 earthquake and it could be felt in auckland.

I am sorry about hearing the lost of the loved ones, on the new it showed all the destruction that the earthquake has caused, it has showed reefs being pushed up from the ocean and near the islands the rocks in the ocean have been pushed up also so the sea water is lower than the rocks.

It has also hit the animals in farms and three cows were lucky enough that they got christmas early and they survived an earthquake on one remaining land, tourists from regions will sadly not be visiting the beautiful part of New Zealand.

You were also cut away from power and water but some parts of Kaikoura have been powered back up and have water again.

Sincerely,

Chemcial Vs Physical



In reading the Dr Seuss and I have been reading everything about Chemical and Physical Changes what is different and what is the same.

The Scientific Method - Write Up

Title - Gummy worm experiment
Purpose: What do you want to learn/find out?
I wanted to learn how the sodium alginate turned into solid.


Hypothesis: Try to predict the answer to the problem. Another term for hypothesis is ‘educated guess’. This is usually stated like ” If I…(do something) then…(this will occur)
I think the Sodium Alginate that will mix with the water that has Calcium Chloride will turn into a solid or it will just stay as a liquid.

Materials: List everything you will need to conduct your experiment.
Pipette, Sodium Alginate, Calcium Chloride, Water and Eco cups (size big and small).


Experiment procedure: The fun part! Design a test or procedure to confirm or disprove your hypothesis. Write down each step so that someone else could do the same experiment.
1.Mix water with Calcium Chloride.
2. Fill the pipette with sodium alginate (which originates from seaweed.
3. Fill the water mixed with calcium chloride with Sodium alginate.
4. Watch the Sodium alginate turn into a solid.

Analysis/Data: Record what happened during the experiment.
What happened during the experiment was the Sodium alginate turned into a solid and it became touchable and it felt weird like actual gummy worms.


Conclusion:Review the data and check to see if your hypothesis was correct.
My Hypothesis was correct because the sodium alginate did turn into a solid.

Immersion Assembly 2016

To kickoff term 4, Pt England school held another exciting Immersion assembly to excite the student and introduce the new inquiry topic Ch.. Ch.. Ch.. Ch.. Changes!

Different teams throughout the school wearing different clothes , Immersion assembly started and Mr Burt and Miss Nua as the Principal and vice Principal at Pt England school, they were cooking something that smelt delicious and it was corn fritters.

Mr Burt was missing a teacher named Mr Jacobson then BOOM! And explosion happened and Mr Jacobson had black marks all over his face and body to make it look like an explosion happened.
Mr Burt called up Team 1 while still cooking corn fritters, team one were wearing witch like clothes and they were going to learn how matter can change into other objects.

Then next was team 2 and they were looking at if things sink or float, and they even did how matter can change with different temperatures and it could change again with another set of temperatures.

Then after team 2 was team 3 and they were looking at how physical object could change with a different mixture like how mentos meets Coca-cola and an mini volcanic eruption happens.


Then second to last was team 4 and they going to do some myth busting to see whether the things they hear aren’t actually true.

Lastly was team 5 and they were going to learn how solids liquids and gasses are different to each other so they took it to the test and their performance was hilarious and the commentator named himself Mr Fuzzy Wuzzy Vottom and he had an assistant name Mrs Iloa flower power that didn’t have a shower or for short slave.

We finished assembly with a song to sing it was called changes by David Bowie but a teacher at Pt England School changed the words and made it so it could go with the topic more.

My favorite performance was Team 5’s because of the laughter and the things that the teachers had to go through to get people to laugh but luckily they brought spare clothes.

The New Boy


               
On the first day of school with a new boy named John and he was as fast as a cheetah with silk hair like a piece of material, he belonged to a school named Hovell High school and on the first day of he already had friends named Joshua and Trevor but people call him Trev for short.


When it was morning tea they we're talking about how they’re life might go, Joshua said he would go to university, Trev said he was going to work at a farm but John’s life was going to be different his life was going to be like this, he was going to trial for a famous soccer team and keep building up and keeping climbing the ladder of inspiration and following his dreams, his friends just cheered him on to achieve his dreams.


Then something announced on the speaker “Hey Freshmen it's Coach David if you want a chance to be like the people playing in the big leagues now then sign up for a sport and you’ll achieve the dream.”


Then his friends cheered him on for that opportunity, so he went and signed up for two sports basketball and football (soccer) then he was called “Hey!”    


Then John turned around and said “Yes, Coach”       


“See you at trials tomorrow”


And he went home happy.


The next day he grabbed his football boots in his bag and also his shin pads and some spare socks, and he took his new Ben basketball shoes and he felt impressed about getting all these compliments at school about his shoes, as soon as he got to school he felt like one of the cool kids but everyone was normal then he felt embarrassed.


Then lunch started and he went to the gym and started practicing until everyone started coming, minuets later the coach came and saw how much he has been trying and was proud of how hard he is already trying, then trials started and it started with a game against one on one to see how good the defence and shooting are, it first started with John and the school bully Hendrix he was so tall that everyone feared his name, it didn’t go so well with Hendrix.


As soon as he got home he started practicing all evening and all night then day 3 started and he tried again, then he went up against Hendrix again but this time it was better than yesterday he started off and he went on with crossovers and behind the back crossovers under the leg crossovers left and right and eventually he ankle broke but not literally he just made him fall then he finished off with a 3 pointer, and everyone was looking at how amazing John was better than Hendrix,Hendrix stood up with no emotion on his face and gave a handshake of appreciation for being the first one that can beat him.


Then the bell rang and the only sport left for trialling is football (soccer) he went to class first and soccer trials were after school then the bell rang and he finished all his work and homework, he started walking to the soccer field and as he was walking a crowd started to surround him and then he sat down with feeling awkward, then he pulled his football (soccer) boots and everyone was amazed because he had the new Zane Hotu boots which were bright with a mix of red and blue and he started to train with everyone cheering, then trials started minuets later up a against a new challenger named Ryan he was the goodest player in the school and that's when he already knew he was going to lose then again it started with a one on one coach told Ryan “Choose a challenger Ryan anyone on the line”    


Then he called out “John!”


John was filling up quickly with fear then the whistle blew and the game started with embarrassment he was trying so hard he could not get the ball, in the crowd they were calling out “John, John, John!” and the other side said “Ryan, Ryan, Ryan,!” in a chanting voice, then it was over, He went home and put on his indoor football (soccer) shoes and then he started practicing twisting and turning around obstacles.


Then it was the last day of the week and it was the last trial to make the team as the day went on he wanted to finish it off properly and then he went to the field the crowd came back but with more signs and cheering and when it started Ryan chose John again and it was just like basketball, then he put his whole training into use but it was first to three, this time he started with the ball and started running up at the opponent then he started with a move called the roulette and did another move called the Zane chop and finished it off with a rabona kick and he scored and it was the real challenge, score by score it was the last score to win he did his skills once more and he made the last goal and it went quiet and with a moment of silence everyone cheered.


He went home with all to talk about and his mum was so proud to see how much he has been training, during the weekends he kept on training so he would get prepared for the games that are coming soon, days later he went to school and people were surrounding the notice board he walked forward and people started to clear out, he went to go check and he searched for his name and his name was not found then he stormed off into class and everyone was afraid of him, after school he went home and stayed in his room for the rest of the day he next day he still felt heavy hearted he went to go check again and it turned out the papers changes and he was the first one on the list for basketball and he was also in the A team he checked the other paper he also made the football (soccer) team and again in the A team and he went all proud.

Five years later Josh became the smartest man in the world, Trev became the best farmer in all competitions, and finally John followed his dreams he became the best and he went up against the big teams he became rich and famous and he went up against Zane Hotu the best soccer player and he even went up against Ben the best basketball player.
