Mmm, That’s Tasty! by Neville Gardner

School Journal June 2012

WALT: Begin to use a range of scientific symbols, conventions, and vocabulary.

SC:      Complete a small science report on the taste + smell experiement

1. There are 5 main flavour receptors. Sweet, Salty, Bitter, Sour and Umami.

List some foods fit each of the flavour receptors.  SHARE

Bitter	Coffee Vanilla
Salty	Salt KFC
Sour	Lemon Grapefruit
Sweet	Sugar candy floss
Umami (savoury)	tomatoes  meat

2. Record the words you didn’t know before. Add a picture or sentence to describe what they mean.

WORD	MEANING
Papillae (p.26)	A small fleshy part of the tongue.
Receptor (p.26 )	they recognize tastes and send info to the brain
texture (p.25)	the feel or look of something
recognise (p.28)	identify something that you have had before

Question: Do our taste buds require smell? our taste buds require smell to help us taste they do that by  smelling because if smells nice it probably tastes nice.

Hypothesis:  I think that we won't be able to taste much. because we partly use our nose and eyes to taste.

    

Materials  

1.Jellybeans

2.Tongue  

3.Hands

4.Nose

Procedure:

1.Cover your eyes and block your nose.

2.Then but a jelly bean in your mouth chew but don't swallow.

3.See what you can taste then let go of your nose then see what you can taste.

Observations: when I blocked my nose I could only taste sweet but when I let my nose go I could taste the jellybeans properly.  

Conclusion: my hypothesis was correct when i did the experiment i could only taste sweet not the proper flavour.

Why 8 hours sleep is important

Getting 8 hours sleep is vital for everybody. Sleep  helps your body to heal and grow.

Sleep is a time when your body stops to repair itself. During this time your brain uses its imagination to create a dream.

Dreams can be different things. Some people think that dreams mean something but know one really knows if dreams do mean anything.

When your sleeping your mind is working to repair body parts from the previous or next day.

If you don't get any sleep you can become grump short tempered faint or not grow.   

Tornado Presentation

This term my school is learning about natural disasters. We had to make a short presentation about a natural disaster so I chose Tornadoes. During the time of my research I learnt many different things about Tornadoes such as the causes and effects of Tornadoes, and how tornadoes form.

Dear Dagmar

My name is Lennyx, I am writing this to say thankyou for talking to us about your career pathway .

I really liked your speech about what you need to be a successful artist. I also liked the colour of your art pieces and the art itself I also liked it because it was creative and was based on your heritage.  

Yours sincerely
