Life On Mars
Is gravity the same on all planets?
It depends on the size, mass and density of the object. The gravitational force it puts out varies. The planets in our solar system are different in size and mass so the strength of gravity on their surface is different. Mar is closer to the sun and you can jump 4x higher than you can on earth. There is a blue sun set if you stay on Mar long enough.Mars has the high mountain in the solar system.
Venus you can jump 1.7feet high. The mass and size of Venus are the same but Venus is a little bit smaller than earth.
Moon you can jump 9Feet high.
How is gravity related to mass?
Gravity is dependent on mass like stars, planets and galaxies to light and subatomic particles.
weight of the planet I'm on?
Earth: 49 Kg
Mercury: 18.5 Kg
Venus: 44.6 Kg
Mars: 18.6 Kg
Jupiter: 114.7 Kg
Saturn: 45.6 Kg
Uranus: 45.1 Kg
Neptune: 54.9 Kg
If I lived on a high gravity planet?
Things will come towards me instead of away from me. If you jump you won't jump hi you will jump lower. I won't be able to lift really heavy things.
If I lived on a lower gravity planet?
Things will move away from me instead of towards me. That I will be lighter so I will be able to jump higher. It will be harder to keep my balanwwce.
STAND UP A history of protests in NEW ZEALAND
Two instructing facts from the story?
Woman Rights
Women were not allowed to protest because the men thought they were the only one that were allowed to vote. The country to let women protest was New Zealand.
Depression Riots
People thought that the government was not giving enough to help them. The first protest about it was in 1930 in Dunedin in January. When it was happening it was down Queen Street and windows to shops were broken. A few months later it started in Auckland.
How do I feel about Depression Riots?
Depression Riots
Depression Riots was something that I want to learn more about. About the protest I feel like the government will be trying to do the best he/she can to help. The government has a lot more things to worry about the Depression Riots. I get where the people were coming from though.
What the main idea of the text is.
The main idea of the text is that people have their own opinions and they need to speak up to what is right. Like women protesting one woman wants to speak up to what is right and she did. Protesting didn't always need to be like a war, it could be a peaceful protest.
What does the term Women's suffrage mean?
Women's suffrage means:
The right to vote in elections for women.
What year were women allowed to vote independently in New Zealand?
Women started to vote on the 19 September 1893. New Zealand was the first country to let women have a right to share their opinions.
How many Prime Ministers in Aotearoa have been female?
There have been 3 Prime Ministers that have been girls.
The has been:
Jenny Shipley was the first woman prime minister.
Helen Clark was the second woman prime minister.
Justin Ardern was the third woman prime minister.
Do you think it's fair that women or certain ethnicities were not allowed to vote?
No, I don't think it was fair to women that they were not allowed to vote. Men thought women were not that smart and intelligent to run a country.
Why do you think that women wanted the right to vote?
So they have their own independence. They want to feel like they have a purpose in the world, not only cooking and things like that.
Why do you think that there are less women Prime Minister's than male?
The man thought that they could not run a country themselves because men think that women are not independent. Men think that women want to have a voice in what is right or wrong. People think it is not a woman roll to be a prime minister.

Wednesday the 24th, Hornby High School did this thing called business and enterprise. It took three weeks to get it ready. We had a group and I was in a group with my friends. I don't think I will be working with my friends again. I filled out five worksheets and did a poster. My group was going to go do Face mask, slime and hand sanitizer but we changed our idea. It changed to asking the teacher if they wanted a water balloon thrown at them and there were seven wonderful teachers that did it for us there were, Miss Allan, Bec, Mr Scott, Mrs Bremner, Sofie, and Mark. I got water on me because the teacher got me back for wetting them. I had a wonderful time with all the teachers. All day we had a wonderful D.J and his name is Jackson. I think he had so much fun and he did a wonderful job with the music. I would like to change that we could spread out a little more because I feel like we were a bit too close to people. We made $103.00 for throwing water balloons at teachers. We used 17.50 dollar from the school so we made $86.00 taking away how much we used for the school.
