Term 1 reflection

 Term 1 was a pretty fun for the first term in high school. i had a lot of fun with my friends and classmates 

the subjects i did in term 1 was doing Sewing, Drama, Maori, Hurumanu, and Wanaga. my favourite subject was Wanaga and we had to make a flag of what you liked and free time as well 

something challenging was sewing I want because it was hard to do and you had to learn what parts you had to sew in.


my 3 goals is: getting 20 Carr card stamps and finishing work a bit faster and not getting distracted by anyone talking

Name: Kamen

Teacher: Miss Bremner 

Term: 1

 

Reflection:

Give at least three examples in each of the boxes below.

What We Did: 

  •  We Learnt about inventions 

  •  We made a drawing type drone 

  • We learnt about some tornado attacks 

What I Learned: 

  •  Facts about tornado 

  •  I learnt reports about making the inventions 

  • I learnt about some days tornadoes came

My Favourite Parts:

  •  Was explaining about the facts 

  •  Was making the drone drawing 

  • Was typing the facts of the tornado 

My Next Steps:

  •  To be quiet and concentrate

  • le To do my work more faster 

  • To do more writing


CARR Values: 

Make a statement below describing how you showed each of our CARR values during this Hurumanu.

Commitment

I don’t think we did anything for commitment 

Achievement

               We achieved finishing of the work 

Resilience

 The facts wasn't hard to do it only was the drone making 

Respect

           We were giving ideas to each other 

Feedback for my Teachers: They are good Teachers 


Inventions term 1 - Tornadic Activity/Supercell Activity Prediction Drone

concentrate Tornadoes are devastating the USA regularly, with little time for Civilians to take cover and go underground once a Tornado Warning or Emergency is issued. For example, look at the infamous Tri State Tornado of 1925. 695 people died across Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana, and nobody in that one-mile-wide unfortunate path knew a damn thing about it until it was bearing down on the town. That is why we need to do something about it. We need to know when and where the tornado will strike BEFORE it touches down.

This is written by:

 Kamen 

AND

Tyler 


Our drone will detect tornadoes and supercells before they happen, which will give NWS and NOAA more time to issue Tornado Warnings/watches/emergencies, and it will also contain something that predicts what counties the tornadoes will strike. TODAY’S EXAMPLE: A tornado is going to strike Bollinger County and Perry County in 20 minutes. NOAA and NWS know a tornado could happen, but if it does happen, they do not know WHERE.  ***The NWS in Ellington Missouri has issued a  tornado watch (see, they don’t know IF it will happen or not.) for Bollinger, Perry,  (see they don’t know where either.) and Mid-Ridge county.***     See? I have told you that it will strike Bollinger and Perry Counties, not Mid-Ridge county.


 So we need a prediction drone to see exactly when and where the tornado(es) will strike. If we knew when and where, then a lot of lives will be saved, especially in significant tornadoes. (EF2/F2 or higher) That’s why we are creating this drone. I designed a drawing to take a look at what this could look like. 



And so..that’s all I guess. OBJECTION! We need to know how wide tornadoes will be, too. On the evening of May 31, 2013, civilians in the El Reno, OK area were getting ready to take cover for a “small tornado”. Little did anybody know that evening would produce the widest tornado EVER RECORDED, peak width was 2.6 miles! It is now known today as the El Reno-Piedmont Tornado.

Plus, knowing the wind speed that will occur with the tornado. People across a range of communities in Oklahoma were bolted by the fastest tornado ever recorded, and the fastest wind speed ever recorded. (Tornado reached 318mph!) This is the tornado known as the May 3, 1999 tornado.
