Climate of NZ

Link


Alexandra has the coldest temperature in June and July although in January and February Alexandra can reach temperatures up to 24 degrees.

Although Hamilton has a rain fall of 120mm it can still reach temperatures of 24 degrees  in summer.

I think Alexandra has the coldest temperature because it is near the bottom of the South Island.

Even if Hokitika get the most rain, the temperatures can still go up to 20mm.

Social Experiment

I think this video will be about a group of friends that get together and do some experiments. I think this because the word "Social" is getting together with your friends and having a good time. The reason I think they will be doing experiments is because the title also has the word "experiment" in it. 

Aim: To find out the reaction of the public when someone insulted them or if someone complimented them.  √

Hypothesis: I think that the mean comments will put some people off or some people might just laugh, but the nice compliments. √

Equipment and Method: Speaker, Someone talking, Public space
By using a speaker, and someone talking, we are going to put a speaker on the corner of a shop and see what the reaction of the public is like. √

Results: We found that the compliments and insults do affect people. We found that the compliments made people smile and look happy, but the insults annoyed people and they were confused by the random voice. Also we found that a small amount of people just laughed and took it as a joke. √

Conclusion: In my hypothesis I said that I think that the compliments will make the public smile and the insults will put some people off. In my results I found that the compliments did make people smile and laugh and the opposite to the insults and negative. √

Click here for the letter.

Summerise who this letter is from, who it is to, and what is it about?
Mrs Emily park lives in USA, she is 66years of age, sent an email to Miss Campbell on Thursday June 12th at 7:21pm, the email was a scam.

Two reasons I know this email is scam
I know this is a scam because Emily put two emails. You only need one email.
Also, I know this is a scam because the number Emily used was fake. I know this because the number had 10 numbers.

Give 3 pieces of evidence to prove that this is a scam letter.
- Emily said that Mrs Maria Farnandez showed her the full information. If Maria really worked for the FBI then she wouldn't be allowed to show Emily the confidential info.
- When I entered this email (mariafarnandez@katamail.com) in google is came up with a Fraud Alert. The site also said that "Emily" Is a male.
- the number Emily gave for Maria is fake, I know that this number if fake because has 10 numbers, a real number inly has 7.

Fifa world cup

List the 6 menu items McDonalds has which are connected with the 2014 FIFA World Cup
- The Brazil Burger
- The Argentina Burger
- The France Burger
- The Spain brekkie Wrap
- The Rio Frozen Sprite
- The England pie


The Rio Frozen Sprite.
List the ingredients
- Sprite syrup
- Apple flavouring syrup
- Pineapple flavouring syrup
- Ice

How this item is connected with the country?
The Rio Frozen Sprite is connected to Rio because the two colours used in this drink are the two main colours in the Rio flag. Yellow and Green. The ingredients are connected to Rio because, the pineapple flavouring represents the lobe of pineapples in Rio, and the apple flavouring represents the green in the Brazilian flag.

Choose a country in the World Cup which does NOT have a burger at McDonalds. Design the burger. List its ingredients and explain how the ingredients you have chosen are linked to the country.
The Aussie Burger.
This burger is connected with Australia because I have added a kangaroo patty, this is connected with Aussie because Aussie is known for their Kangaroos. Also I have included shrimp and passion fruit sauce, this is connected with Australia because pavlova is famous in Aussie and passion fruit sauce is always on a pavlova, Also the shrimp is connected because Australians like shrimp.

Now stop, lets take it to the middle. Got to find the median no time to daddle diddle
Line up all the numbers from the smallest to the big and the ones thats in the middle does a media jig
Go median, middle number, go median, middle number
Now the third ones mean, not nice but mean
Its the average number if you know what I mean
Just add up all the numbers and divide them by the number of added
Whats that, whats mean?
You add up all the numbers and divide them by the number of added
Yeah you know what I mean
You add up all the numbers and divide them by the number of added
It's the average number, mean, its the average number
1 more round and the song is done
Lets talk about range and have some fun
It's the biggest number minus the smallest number, in the group, in the group
It's the biggest number minus the smallest number , in the group, in the group

You got Mode, Median, Mean and Range
Mode, Median, Mean and Range
