Curiosity Quest How to Air Dribble in Rocket League

Hello, today in Wananga we were tasked to do a curiosity quest on anything we were interested in.

So today I will be learning and showing you how to air dribble in Rocket League.

(Example of how to air dribble)


Steps

1. First of all you want to make sure you have enough boost so you can maintain flight while in the air.

2. Secondly delicately hit the ball so it goes up or bounces off of the wall.

3. Now you want to leave ball cam and jump backwards while boosting but you need to remember not to waste or use too much of your boost. 

4. Start to lightly tap the ball into the goal but if you miss then try to hit the rebound in.

Tip: If you are playing in doubles or threes and you miss then always let your partner know that the ball is open for them.

Health Discovery Tasks: Don't do Cannabis

 Hello, for the last few weeks in health we have been tasked to design something on a topic that we choose. My friend Hassan and I chose to make a song titled "don't do cannabis"

Firstly we talked about what we wanted to do and the topic we chose was cannabis.

Once we had our big 5 questions we started researching the answers to those questions. 

From there we decided to make a song and a music video. We did this because it was something that seemed fun and unique to create. 

We learnt that these strategies are helpful if you are struggling with cannabis or if someone you know is.

Link to song and video - Music Video


It was challenging when editing the music and the video as I wasn't that skilled in music.

I coped with this by learning how to edit and taking what I already knew and putting that into the editing.

I worked well with Hassan because we both wanted to try our best and make something that had alot of effort put into it.

Next time I will try to spend more time making the project may that be in my own time or at school.

I am really proud on how the video turned out and how the whole project turned out in general.

Gymnastics


Gymnastics: Parallel Bars

Recently in PE we have been doing gymnastics, we got to chose one out of many activities to focus on.

The main activity I focused on was the parallel bars. 

The goal was to lift yourself up and put your legs straight up.

I managed to do it for about 2 seconds but that was about the max.

I could do it without my legs straight for about 5 seconds.

My goal was to stay up for at least 5 seconds straight but that means I can keep progressing.

My favorite part of this was that you could focus on what you wanted and didn't have to perform in front of the class.


First attempt

My skills right now

Electricity

Electricity 

Static Electricity

A build up of electrical charges on an object


Current Electricity

A flow of electric charge.


Electrical Charge

electrical particles that are negatively charge


Circuit

A system that provides a pathway for electrical current to flow through


cell

Supplies energy to circuit, by pushing current from the positive to negative end


voltmeter

A device used to measure voltage, or electrical potential energy difference


Static electricity

Current electricity

What is it caused by?

An imbalance of positive and negative charges,The movement of electrons through a wire.

Do the negative charges move?

YesNo

Does it power appliances?

No Yes


What are some examples of static electricity:

  • Walking on carpet
  • Lightning
  • Trampoline
  • Rubbing a balloon on your head

How does the Van der Graaff machine work?

It pulls electrons from the earth and moves them along a belt then stores it in a sphere.

What was one of the experiments we did with the machine?

People put both of their hands onto the top of the sphere and they're hair would go up.

Why does it do this?
The charges transfer to the persons body.
