Solar panels and the cardboard map.

 

For the last 2 weeks, we have been making a couple slides and a map of our school. I liked that it was Harry, Jesse, and I so that we could finish it faster and make it better than we probably would of and, I tried my best. I didn't like that it took so long for me to do it. I hope you enjoy or did enjoy what I made and wrote down with my friends that wanted to help me with the project and the ones that actually came to school. I learned that solar panels are $17,000 and the solar panels use around 1.7 to 1.8 kilowatts or kw which is short for kilowatts. I also learned that to power our school with solar panels, we would need 47 solar panels which is a lot of money and solar panels.

For the past two weeks, we have been researching how Tokelau gets their energy from that far away. I liked that it was easy and I tried my best next I will have a cardboard map of my school unless I don't finish it in time. I didn't like that it took me longer than I thought because some people are already done so I have been pretty bored because I wanted to do the cardboard creation stuff.

 How do wind and the sun affect your daily life? The sun affects your daily life by giving you light and some people power. The wind affects your daily life by being able to fly a kite.

What activities do you do that engage the energy of the sun and wind?

I go outside and play with my dog by throwing a bone or a dog toy for her. I also go to the beach and feel the breeze when it is really hot so I don’t faint.

The ways Tawhirimatua influences us.

He influences me by making me want to try bodyboarding because the waves he makes look cool and fun to bodyboard on.

This week we have been researching more energy stuff. I liked that we had a book to read off of. I didn't like that it was hard to find the stuff I wanted to wright down.

Yesterday our whole class split up into four different groups. We were writing down what we already know as a group and presenting it to the whole class afterward. I liked that we did it in a group and not individually. I didn't like that I didn't know much because we haven't done much electricity.
