Nutrient food testing.

 Our aim is to find out what nutrients are present in different foods.

Test foods - Hypothesis:

  • Egg - I think a Egg will have proteins in it.
  • Milk -  I Think Milk is a complex sugar and has protein.
  • Apple - I think a Apple will have complex sugars in it.
  • Bread - I think Bread will be a complex sugar.
  • Potato - I think potatoes are a complex sugar and have protein.
  • Sugar - I think Sugar is a simple sugar.  
Method for complex sugar:
  1. We put the food in the test tubes.
  2. Then we put two drops of glucose in each food.
  3. Then we waited to see what colour it would turn to determine if it is a simple or complex sugar.
Method for simple sugar:
  1. We put the food in the tubes.
  2. Then we added 5 drops of Benedict.
  3. waited for them to change colours.
Results for simple sugar -  

  • Glucose - Glucose is a simple sugar.
  • Apple - Apples have simple sugars.
  • Potato - The Potato has a little bit of simple sugars.
  • Eggs - Eggs are not a simple sugar.
  • Bread - Bread is not a simple sugar.
  • Milk -  Milk is not a simple sugar.

Results for Complex sugar - 
  • Eggs - Eggs are  a complex sugar .
  • Bread - Bread is a complex sugar.
  • Milk - Milk is  a complex sugar.
  • Potato - Potatoes are a complex sugar.
  • Apple - Apples are a complex sugar.
  • Glucose - Glucose is not a complex sugar.
Protein method:
  1. Place the food in the test tubes.
  2. Place 2 ML of the sample into a test tube and add 5 drops of sodium hydroxide.
  3. Add 5 drips of copper sulfate.
  4. shake the test tube gently side to side.
Findings - 
  • Apple - Has no protein in it,  it stayed blue.
  • Potato - Has no protein in it,  it stayed blue.
  • Glucose - Has no protein in it,  it stayed blue.
  • Bread - Has no protein in it,  it stayed blue.
  • Egg - Has protein in it.
  • Milk - Has protein in it. 
Conclusion - 
My hypothesis was close, I was correct about Egg and Milk having protein and Complex sugars in them, I was right saying that Glucose and Apples are simple sugars and that Bread and Potato's are complex sugars.
Discussion - 
I learnt that Potatos and Bread dont have protein.

Metal work - Safety signs

For the last couple of weeks we have been creating and designing a sign the sign has to be one that is unique and that u think should be in a work shop if not already. There is three types of signs that we could chose out of Hazard, prohibited and mandatory, The sign I  chose to make is a hazard sign, the meaning for my sign is NO smoking because there is always fumes in the work shop and smoking would just be deadly. But before started to design our signs we done a couple other activities we had to make a blog post explaining some of the obvious signs you find in a work shop we also had to explain what the signs mean so we get a better idea of what we could make.

This is my sign -

Wonder - Film study

Intro - Close - up,
spaceman jumping into the shot, slow-motion shot to give the feeling that we are in space....
- Intro symbol of the Astronaut helmet, covers his face, represents the barrier August puts between himself & the world.
- Music- starts quiet, slow but the tempo & dynamics increase to build energy in the scene. We hear a radio of ground control talking to the Astronaut.
- The next camera shot is a tracking shot as we move away from the figure. Who is now a boy in a helmet bouncing on his bed.
-  Close-up shows us Auggies "Reality" or view of the world but as we pull back we see the real world.

Structure:
1st Narrator  - Auggie
2nd Narrator - Via
3rd Narrator - Jack will
4th Narrator - Miranda
Last Narrator - Auggie

Quotes -
Dad/Nate - "Its like leading a lamb to slaughter"
Summer -  " When being given the choice between being right or kind, choose kind"


2 minutes in - Building suspense as we still haven't seen the boys face. We don't know whats wrong, but the hints are bad - Hospital scene, Helmet, Tags, School conversation, Auggies dialogue in the voice over.

1st significant  scene - Auggie meets Jack will, Julian, and Charlotte.

Star Wars -
 A symbol of Auggie wanting people to treat him him normally - A safe place. In the star wars universe there a lots of weird looking people so no one stares at them
Scenes -  Auggie introduces him self,

 Hazard signs or warning symbols are recognizable/ common symbols designed to warn people about hazardous or dangerous materials, locations, or objects, that are not safe. You might find a hazard sign in the work shop if there is loose wires or something that could cause suaver damage.

Safety signs are a type of sign designed to warn of hazards, if you see this sign u know it is mandatory  or required to use of Personal protective equipment. A example of a mandatory sign is if you are entering a zone of the work shop it will say what correct gear you need.

These health & safety signs are required to be red show only what or who is forbidden. An example of one in the work shop is to put bags under table to decline the cause of tripping over and getting hurt.
