mega air

yesterday me and 15-16 other chosen children all though the school went to Mega Air. the teacher aids/helpers won a class trip to mega air, so they all picked some kid that they think deserve to go. I was so excited when I got told as I had never been to mega air. so when the day came I was unable to sit still, well I had to I was in school, but you know what I mean. we left at about 11:40 and came back at 1:20 lunch we had spent about 2 hours! any way we got out of class at 11:33 and went to the meeting place [the learning center] and took the role. then we walked 100m to mega air. when we got there we had to take our shoes and socks. then we watched the safety video. then we were let loose, and I was so happy. about 3 min in I went to jumped into the air bag but I was scared. but I went and did it after 5 attempts and it was its so fun so I jumped in over 10 times over the time we were there. after we had our time everyone was happy but tired. so that is my recount of mega air.  👍 👋

Barefoot Burglar



The case of the Barefoot Burglar

The Crime

At approximately 7:15 a.m., Friday morning, Mrs. King, the science teacher, thought something was fishy as she walked down the hall and noticed that her door was open. She walked into her classroom and immediately discovered that the small aquarium had been broken and her prized gold fish were gasping in the sink. Beside the broken aquarium were the shattered remains of the pink piggy bank that had been on the shelf above the aquarium. A can of blue paint was spilled on the floor. Footprints of a barefooted burglar led to an open window. Bits of a white powdery substance were found next to the broken, empty, piggy bank. The only other item found was a half-eaten large chunk of chocolate candy.

When the police arrived they immediately began to gather forensic evidence.

Peg is a librarian known for hanging horseshoes and four leaf clovers in her library. Employees say she is so superstitious she insisted on carpeting in the library instead of laying tiles so she would not step on the cracks. She wraps construction zone tape around open ladders so no one can walk under them. Cola bottles litter her office, which she drinks with chocolate chunks. Her teeth are chipped from knocking the bottles against them. She is always throwing salt over her shoulder for good luck and keeps a salt shaker in her purse. Her alibi is that she was busy closing open umbrellas the morning of the crime.

Jake the Jock is known for quoting statistics on every sport from boomerang throwing to sled dogging. His neighbors report that he is the neighborhood pitcher for baseball games. Last year a baseball hit him in the mouth and knocked out his front tooth. This has cramped his eating style of chocolate chunks, candied apples, and corn on the cob. His wife claims that on the morning of the crime Jake was rubbing his hands with cornstarch to keep them dry in preparation for an important baseball game.

Dan the Man
Height : 5'8"
Alias: The General



Dan was wearing a woolen general's uniform with small holes when apprehended in the woods. He claimed to be gnawing on wood for moisture and insects to practice his survival training. His teeth look like a beavers from gnawing. His wife complains that she never has any baking soda due to Dan's compulsion about storing clothes in mothballs. He thinks the baking soda takes away the mothball smell, so he stuffs his pockets with the substance. Also, his wife reports that her giant chocolate kisses continually disappear from the candy cupboard. He blames their dog Patton, an English bull terrier, who patrols the neighborhood. His neighbors report that Dan loves the military. He was very regimented about playing taps on his bugle every day at sunset until an irate neighbor broke his bugle. Dan has been trying to save money for a new one.



Lou LouLou Lou
Height: 5'3"
Alias: Sweet Tooth

Lou Lou is so addicted to sugar that she never leaves home without it. She loves to bake sweet things and has an entire pantry full of sugar bins. She claims to have been baking her famous chocolate chunk cookies the morning of the crime (although not a morsel of cookie or chocolate chunk was left when the police arrived.) Lou Lou rarely wears shoes, which often causes her to slip and break things, especially her collection of ceramic pigs.
  • Sticky, 'swirl' fingerprints were lifted from the aquarium and piggy bank. 
  • The painted footprints were measured and were for 26cm feet. ( size 8)
  • The chunk of chocolate candy was collected for examination. It appeared there were teeth imprints.
  • The white powdery substance by the piggy bank was carefully placed in a plastic bag and taken to the forensic chemist for identification . It had very small grains and when mixed with Iodine it reacted making the colour brown. It did not have a smell.

all about me 2018

well it's another year and I'm back in science so here is another all about me

my name is Michaela and my from class this year is 8Ts. My teacher is mr Tisch and ya. I'm 12 and cant wait to get deep in to this year

here's a sneak peek on a story that Im writing
Many years ago, when I was just a small boy, we found a mysterious object washed up on the
beach. It was a sort of silver-grey colour, and looked like a finger, only much, much larger.
My friends and I had huddled together on the beach around the thing, holding our hands
up to our faces to shield our eyes from the dazzling sun, talking excitedly about what it could
be. Some hours later, after we had all made up wild stories about the origin of our new toy, we
dragged the colossal item that was the size of our dining table up to the village.

As we made our way slowly over the sand dunes, and the long, wispy grass that marked the
end of the beach and the start of the fields, a crowd seemed to be gathering. Women and young
children were leaving their houses, young lads were leaving tools and ploughs unattended in
the fields, and rosy-cheeked men were stumbling out of the smoke-filled tavern, all hurrying
with increasing urgency towards us.

when I am finished I will post it

forgery


to day in science we did forgery in names and these are my results 


  1. phillip was strate where i was not
  2. chanty was the closest and was more to my shape 
  3. and my signature seems easy to forge






the difernt types of detecding the forgery is

  1. top of letter analysis
  2. bottom of letter analysis
  3. slant analysis



PS I know about my bad spelling 

foot prints

 
to day in science we had to mecher our height and shoe size and this is the results
