The brilliant Tom Gates is back in this, the fourth installment of this award-winning series from Liz Pichon. In this volume of his hilarious diary, Tom documents the ups and downs of his daily life as he deals everything from Dad's embarrassing new fitness regime to the challenges of entering his band DOGZOMBIES into the school Talent Contest - and most horrifying of all, seeing weirdo big sister Delia without her sunglasses.

Both existing fans of Tom Gates and newcomers to the series will be delighted by this wickedly funny and engaging story. With plenty of Tom's scribbly illustrations, doodles, and lively hand-drawn cartoons throughout, as well as a fun flipbook, it is an appealingly visual read that will keep young readers entertained from beginning to end.

Area of basic shapes

Today in maths we are learning about the area of basic shapes.

The area can be defined as the space occupied by a flat shape or the surface of an object.

- Rectangle

the area is measured with the formula w x h 

w = width

h = Height

- Circle

The area of a circle is measured with a formula PI x R2 

Circumference = 2 x pi x r

r = Radius

PI = 22/7 or 3.141

- Triangle

The area of a circle is measured with a formula 1/2 x b x h

b = base

h = verticle height  

Circles

How do I calc the circumference of a circle? Formular based

Using radiance

Circumference 2 PI Radius

Using diameter PI Diameter

 

These are the units of calculating a circle.

PI = 22/7

What is the perimeter or circumference of the circles?

- Diameter = 40 meters

- Radius = 20 meters

- PI = 22/7 or 3.141

To calc the perimeter or circumference of the circles I can use 2 PI Radius or PI Diameter.

Cir = 2 x 3.141 x 20 m

= 125.66 meters

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Radius - 15 meters

PI = 22/7 or 3.141

To calc the perimeter or circumference of the circles I can use 2 PI Radius or PI Diameter.

Cir 2x 3.141 x 15m

= 94.28m

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Diameter = 22.5 meters

Radius 11.25 meter

PI = 22/7 or 3.141

To calc the perimeter or the circumference, I am going to use PIdeiamter

Cir 3.141 x 22.5m

= 70.71 meter

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Radius = 26cm

Diameter = 52 cm 

PI = 22/7 or 3.141

To convert the radius from cm to M I am going to divide it by 100

Radius

26

------- = 0.26m

100

Diameter

52

------- = 0.52m

100

To calc the perimeter of the circumference, I am doing to use 2PI x r

Cir 2 x  PI x 0.26m 

= 1.63362817987m

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Radius = 26000mm

Diameter = 520000

PI = 22/7 or 3.141

To convert the radius from cm to M I am going to divide it by 100

26000

------------ = 260 m

100

Cir 2 x PI x 260

=1633.62817987

5 Common tools in a workshop

Carpenter pencils:

Carpenter pencils are created to be rectangle so then when they are put down on an angled surface they don't roll away

Marking blade:

A marking blade is a handle with a blade at the end. you use a marking blade when you don't have a pencil or if you prefer the indent.

Sliding bevel:

A sliding bevel is an adjustable gauge that used for setting and transferring a 90-degree angle

Rip saw:

A rip saw, or tooth saw, is an all-purpose tool for woodworking when you want to make rough cuts. 

Chisel:

A chisel is used for carving or cutting a hard material such as wood, stone, or metal by hand, struck with a mallet

Explain the different parts of a tree

Trees have three main parts - the leaves, the trunk, and the roots. The upper part of the tree with the branches is called the crown.

Outer bark

The outer bark is the tree's protection from the outside world. Continually renewed from within, it helps keep out moisture in the rain and prevents the tree from losing moisture when the air is dry. It insulates against cold and heat and wards off insect enemies.

 

Phloem

Phloem transports carbohydrates, produced by photosynthesis and hydrolysis of reserve compounds, to sink tissues for growth, respiration, and storage. At photosynthetic tissues, carbohydrates are loaded into the phloem.

 

Cambium

The cambium cell layer is the growing part of the trunk. It annually produces new bark and new wood in response to hormones that pass down through the phloem with food from the leaves. These hormones, called “auxins”, stimulate growth in cells.

Xylem

Xylem, plant vascular tissue that conveys water and dissolved minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant and also provides physical support. Xylem tissue consists of a variety of specialized, water-conducting cells known as tracheary elements.

Heartwood

The heartwood functions as long-term storage of biochemicals, which vary from species to species. These chemicals are known collectively as extractives.

Describe how trees become timber.

The trees get cut to a set length Then the log gets picked up by a timber lorry, which transports the timber to a processing site such as, sawmill, paper mill, pallet fencing, or construction producer, AT the chosen site the log gets debarked or bucked, Drys out, Cut to length than dressed.

Processes of timber 

Defects of tree

Defects in timber.

Defects are visible signs that a tree is failing to grow or live. These are the seven main types of tree defects dead. Wood, cracks, weak branch unions, decay, cankers, root problems, and poor tree form. These seven main types of tree defects are described below.

Different types of cut,

There are three different types of cuts in timber. Quartersaw, Riftsaw, and Plain saw

Quartersaw

- This reveals a different face for the board, giving straight grain, and the end of a board shows growth rings 60-90 degrees to the face of the board.

Riftsaw

-riftsawn wood is the least effective and most expensive means by converting a log. But it is the most stable.

Plain saw

-plain saw is just a straight cut wood. it is the most common type of cut due to it being the most inexpensive and easiest way to cut the wood.

In New Zealand, we use four main timbers Kauri, Matai, and Rewarewa, and Rimu These timbers are chosen on the basis of their colors, grain patterns, and workability, which lend them to be creatively used.

Home Economics China Dish

 For the past seven weeks we have been researching about one country per group and then on the last week we had to cook that dish. Cole and I were in a group and we decided to make Sweet and Sour Pork representing China. The day we cooked the meal. I didn't't come because he was sick so I cole had to get help from other students. At the end of the period, he had cooked the pork and he said  it was tasty.
