flower power - tech
What we are doing: 1.Know the parts of the flower and what the function(what they do and why) of each part is. 2. Be able to dissect a flower, arrange its parts and collate on an information sheet 3. Complete the science of a flower . 4. Be able to speak about the above. |
Flower: you can use your flower to make a certain area smell nice. It can also turn into a perfume. They are different kinds of flowers and they have their own looksThey attract a lot of bugs because the bugs like the smell of it and the pollen. |
PARTS OF FLOWER: Stigma Style Anther Pollen tube Sepal Thalamus Male Gametophyte Pedals Ovule Female Gametophyte Dissection: He's using a paring knife butter knife Cutting board flower bud gloves glasses And flower Removal: 1 petal Remove sepals Cut the middle We got a flower and put it on the cutting board we took of 1 of the pedals then removed the sepals and then cut the middle after that we had to get the pollen tube in the middle of it |

float or sink - tech
FLOATING AND SINKING
FLoating -light , full of air sink-heavy , no air Semi float- when it float and sinks Notes: Light :buoyant , crew ship Heavy: non buoyant We can tell if its gonna float or not by holding it Density : the amount of mass something has , relative to its volume. More density more impact Archimedes Principle - gave us density and buoyancy BUOYANCY EXPERIMENTS/ FLOAT OR SINK Aim purpose: predict the test the buoyancy of objects Equipment:

RECORDING OF BUOYANCY EXPERIMENT
Name of object | Size - cms L-W-D or diameter | weight : gms | Composition (what it made out of) | prediction | BUOYANCY RESULT |
Golf ball | 14.8 cm | 46.10 gms | Hard plastic | sink | SINK |
Ping pong ball | 11.1 cm | 2.59 gms | Soft plastic | float | FLOAT |
marbel | 5 cm | 5.15 gms | glass | Semi float | SINK |
Big marbel | 9.2 cm | 22.67 gms | glass | sink | SINK |
Tennis ball | 20.5 cm | 56.81 gms | Rubber | Semi float | SEMI FLOAT |
Wood block | 99 cm | 18.94 | wood | Semi float | SEMI FLOAT |
Small cube | 1 cm | 7.95 | wood | float | SEMI FLOATS |
styrofoam | 6.7 cm | 0.41 gmas | styrofoam | float | FLOATS |
Big cybe | 1.9cm | 4.59 | wood | float | SEMI FLOATS |
lego | 3 cm | 8..49 | plastic | Semi float | SEMI FLOATS |
block | 14 cm | 116.96 gms | wood | Semi float | 1 SEMI FLOATS |
Before you test each object, accurately measure size and weight , describe the material and predict density Record
Gently place each object in the water and see it’s behaviour (Sink or Float)
