Innovation Day Reflection

Hello! It’s me, Bianca, your favourite blogger👍!

After Innovation day, which showcased some filtration projects(which my partner and I did), or other custom projects, I started to think about how my project with my partner, Maya, could have been better, changed, etc. Before I started, I didn’t know how much hard work it would be. I think we did well in terms of the research on our chosen country, Eritrea. We researched what the country had or didn’t have a lot of. We also did well on the presentation part. There was a lot of information, including a chart of the results. 

We could have maybe organized the information a little better, because some things were arranged all over the place and your eyes would be looking everywhere. 

We tried to make our project aesthetically pleasing, and appealing. While good work contains good content, and research, that doesn’t restrict the creativity you can put in! As a creative person, I love to add my own elements to make a presentation ‘glow’ more.

Our biggest challenge/barrier was figuring out how to incorporate all of the components into our presentation, to make it all fit together and flow well. I think I worked very well with my partner and she helped a lot with the research and experiment. For some things, I work better alone, but for other things, I work better with a partner.

I would probably plan a little better next time. We attached things onto the bristle board pretty late, and that led to it being very full. In terms of the actual presentation on Canva, we had lots of time and we did it pretty fast.

After presenting to the judges, I was very relieved and I think my partner and I did well with explaining everything thoroughly. I look forward to participating in Innovation Day again next year!

MATTER-project

Aloha! It’s me, your favorite scientist blogger.😊👩🏻‍🔬

In GS, (general studies) we did a project. It was called What’s the matter in our world? we each had to choose                                              between four different topics: Melting ice caps, oil tanks,deforestation and plastic pollution. I chose melting ice caps because                            it was the one that meant the most to me because I don’t want seals, polar bears and walruses to die.                                                                          Here is a little video to introduce melting ice caps.

here is a cool website that counts the melting of ice caps.

We all made media text and I made a ‘commercial’. Here is mine.

I really loved this project because we get to help all of these issues and it makes other people aware of this, too.

I could get really creative and just do it in my own way.

Why are ice caps melting?

Melting ice caps, (AKA glaciers) Are melting because of global warming.                                                                                                                            Global warming is affecting the temperature of the Arctic  and melting the glaciers.

What animals are endangered?

Animals like polar bears and walruses are under threat of extinction.                                                                                                                                  If this problem isn’t solved soon, We might lose them forever.

 

Thank you for reading my blog!

The digestive system

hello! it’s me! your favourite blogger.😁

The digestive system is where your food gets processed.

When you eat, the food goes down your throat. Then, it goes down your esophagus (Es-O-Fo-Gus). then it finally comes down into your stomach. Your stomach has acid inside. The acid dissolves your food, and when it is done, it goes to your small intestines. that’s where it dissolves your food even more. The small intestine is actually very long compared to the large intestine. The large intestine is LARGE, obviously, but short. It takes out all the water from your food. well this process is being done, nutrients is taken out to everywhere in your body. when the food is done, it goes into your rectum, and then to your anus to poop it out.
