My favourite subject is P.E. because it helps you learn and it keeps your fitness level up. P.E. helps you learn new things like catching and hitting a ball. It also helps you if you have health issues later in life. If your wondering what P.E. means, it means Physical Education where people can jog, run or walk down their street.
This is a record of my learning in the time I was at Tamaki Intermediate School. This blog is now closed for new posts and comments. However, you are most welcome to read it.

Friction
Sliding Down
Question:
Which object will slide down first.
Hypothesis:
We thought that the ice cube will fall down first.
You will need:
* Wide,smooth wooden board
* Table
* Variety of small objects that have at least one flat surface,such as an ice cube,eraser,match box,plastic and wooden blocks
* Hand lens(optional)
Steps
* Place the wooden board on a table.
* Arrange the objects along one edge of the board.
* slowly raise the edge of the board.
* Which object starts to slide down the board first?
Conclusion:
The block fall first rather then the ice cube.
Observation:
The wooden block slid down first because it had a smoother surface like the wooden board.
Result:
The wooden block slid down first followed by the matchbox then the plastic block then the ice cube then the rubber.
Conclusion:
The wooden block slid down first because it had a smooth surface and there was less friction.
