Before doin the experiment ms.lenny told us to copy this on our books:
1.Fill the container completely with water!
2.Pour the water from container to the given container
3.Use a ruler and measure the depth of it ( correct to the nearest centimetre)
4.Use your knowledge on the cuboid to find the capacity of the container
Containers:
-plastic cup
-tube container
-small tube container
-bowl
-glass bottle
-sand measurement
-plastic jar container
-tank

I think the experiment was kind of fun cept the part when i get my clothes wet coz of the tube container . FUN PART IS: we can learn and play with the water =3=3=3=3



B:3 N =3=3=3 :3

back then, ms L prepared us with an experiment to do. first she told us to copy these instructions :
1.Fill in the container completely with water.
2.Pour the water from the container into the given square container.
3.Using a ruler,measure the depth of water in the square container (correct to the nearest centimetre).
4.Use your knowledge on finding the volume of the cuboid to find the capacity of the container.
after copying that, you have to draw a table in your book to show the volume in the container given. the containers are :
- plastic cup
-small plastic cup
-tube container
-small tube container
-bowl
-glass bottle
-sand measurement
-plastic jar container
-tank
This is how my group count the volume in the containers. first fill up the measuring cup with water. then pour it to the container until it's full. then you can see in the measuring cup how much it was wasted to fill up the whole container. there it is, the answer.

i think this experiment was fun. it gave us knowledge while we're having fun cos we get to play water P=.now i know that even a tall container have less volume of water than the fat container.

The day before, we are doing an experiment about volume in maths class.It was all splashy...
At first ms L asked us to copy the instruction from the board. it is as follows;
In groups, follow these steps to find the capacity of each of the container the group has.
1.Fill in the container completely with water.
2.Pour the water from the container into the given square container.
3.Using a ruler,measure the depth of water in the square container (correct to the nearest centimetre).
4.Use your knowledge on finding the volume of the cuboid to find the capacity of the container.
After we're done, we need to make a table to help as sort our information. After all of ou
We just need to follow the instruction to succed our experiment.First we need a measuring tool, fill it in with water or sand. Then, pick the container you want to fill the water or sand in. Use your skill of measuring a volume to know the capacity of the container.
This is an example:
container-depth-capacity
plastic jar container-5cm-710ml

I felt that this experiment was fun and spplashyy... But most importantly is that I can learn and understand more about volume. And now i can also know that even though a container have a low depth, the volume can still be bigger than the taller container....

this morning , ms L instructed us to find the capacity/volume and depth of water in containers. there are all types of containers, such as square container, bottle, tube, cup, etc. in groups, we need to find the volume/capacity of the container. 1 way that i did to measure the capacity/volume of the water is we fill the container (full), then we pour it to the measuring cup/glass. then, we look at the measurements.if we want to know the capacity of the square container, we have to multiply length with breadth with height. we also measure the depth of water with ruler or measuring cup. example:

CONTAINER : square container

DEPTH OF WATER : 19 cm

CAPACITY OF CONTAINER : 14.5 x 14.5 x 20.5 = 4310.125 ml

i think the activity gives us more knowledge about finding out the capacity and volume. and also in measuring. and i also enjoyed this activity because its fun playing with water :D :p

elaine_hands on maths_volume_28 april 2011

to do the experiment, miss lenny gave us the instruction..

instruction
in group, follow these steps to find the capacity of each containers the group has
1. fill the container completely with water
2. pour the water from the container into the given square container
3. using the ruler, measure the depth of the water in the square container correct to the
nearest cm
4. use your knowledge on finding the volume of a cuboid to find the capacity of the
container in ml

my group fill in some water to the container given and pour the water, we count using the amount of water use to pour water to containers. for the depth, we measure it using ruler

example:

container - depth of water in square container - capacity of the container [ml]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
tube container - 30 cm - 310 ml
---------------------------------------------------------------------------


i say its a fun activity to do for an experiment at school, although we need more time to do it!! And I think we also need to manage our time properly too!!

Today's Math Experiment_28 April 2011

it was real fun to have this kinda experiment you knooww!! :p yeahhh..

but somehow it is making our class dirty with water and sand all over..

besides funn,, it also teaches us how to find the capacity of many different types of containers..

you can have fun but also remember to stay clean on our clothes, tables, chairs, and the whole class.. :?

to do this experiment, she gave us the instruction..

2. pour the water from the container into the given square container
3. using the ruler, measure the depth of the water in the square container correct to the
nearest cm
4. use your knowledge on finding the volume of a cuboid to find the capacity of the
container in ml

our group didn't use normal calculations like -, +, x, or even divide.. we count it with the given container that has the volume on it, so that it will be easier for the volume.. for the depth, we count it with ruler..

example:

container / depth of water in square container / capacity of container [ml]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
small tube / 19 cm / 73 ml
container / /
---------------------------------------------------------------------------


i say its a fun activity to do at school.. it goesss splasssshhyy!! well,, need more time siiihh..
so, i think we just need to managed our time wisely and also do not mess up someones table full of water.. :p in this activity, we learn to know the capacity of different containers, depth of the container, name of the container and what it is used for [if don't know yet] .. actualyy there's more but this is what i remembered.. :p

the souvenir i brought to school the other day was a magnet with the taipei 101 building.
taipei 101 is one of the tallest building in the world. it has 101 floors in it. some of the floors are for working which is the office, some are restaurants, and some are also for looking at the views. when you go there, you are not allowed to go to the highest level, you can only go around 95th floor. on the 93rd floor, there is an outdoor area where you can be outside. it's very high and cold and its hard to see the view from the outdoor area because there's clouds covering them.

Petronas Twin Towers, pair of skyscraper office buildings in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, that are among the world’s tallest buildings. The Twin Towers, built to house the headquarters of Petronas, the national petroleum company of Malaysia, were designed by the Argentine-born American architect Cesar Pelli; they were completed in 1998. The plan for each tower is identical: an eight-lobed circular structure that contains 88 stories of occupiable space and a pyramid-shaped pinnacle surmounted by a slender steel spire. Both rise to a height of 1,483 feet (451.9 metres), which includes 242 feet (73.6 metres) for pinnacle and spire. Each building is supported by 16 large columns around its perimeter, which, along with the rest of the frame, are made of high-strength, steel-reinforced concrete rather than of structural steel; the exterior sheathing consists of stainless steel and glass. A skybridge two stories tall links the two towers between the 41st and 42nd stories.

In 1996, after the spires had been attached to the buildings (and each had thus reached its full height), the Petronas Twin Towers were declared the world’s tallest buildings, eclipsing the former record holder, the 110-story Sears (now Willis) Tower in Chicago. The roof of the Sears Tower was actually more than 200 feet (60 metres) higher than those of the Twin Towers, but the spires on the towers’ pinnacles were regarded as integral parts of the overall architectural structure (see Researcher’s Note: Heights of buildings). The Twin Towers, in turn, lost their preeminent status in 2003 after a spire was put in place atop the Taipei 101 (Taipei Financial Center) building, in Taipei, Taiwan, and that structure reached a height of 1,667 feet (508 meters).

Chief Lapu-Lapu's (1491-1542) other name is Kolipulako. The hero of Mactan and conqueror of Magellan, is described as stern, proud, intelligent, unyielding. He waged continuous war against the powerful ruler of Cebu, then a very much greater kingdom than his little island of Maktang. Of him, President Gullas of the University of the Visayas writes:

Lapu-Lapu is a good example of determination and willingness to work well. He learned how to ride on a horseback and on carabao proficiently at the age of six years; knew how to read and write at seven; boxed well at nine; became a champion swimmer, boxer and wrestler at eighteen; beat the Bornean marauders and pirates twice at twenty'. In the lives of men who have almost become legendary one finds it diffucult to separate fact from fiction. This must be true in the case of the material quoted above.

History has it that Mactan Island although small was a thriving community when the great Magellan was in Cebu. The brave Spanish navigator and soldier, upon learning that some inhabitants on this tiny island across Cebu refused to recognize the King of Spain, burned one of the villages. Lapu-Lapu was one of he native leaders who refused to acknowledge the sovereignty of Spain over the Islands.

When Magellan, with three boatloads of Spaniards and twenty boatloads of Cebuanos, went to Mactan to help a friendly chief, Lapu-Lapu and his men armed with native fighting elements, wooden shields, bows and arrows, lances, met them. The invading Spaniards and Cebuanos were driven back to their boats, but their brace leader, Magellan, met death in the hands of Lapu-Lapu. On what is believed to be the exact spot where Magellan fell and died, now stands an imposing monument in honor of the gallant explorer.

Forbidden city was called Gu Gong in Chinese.. It was the imperial palace during the Ming and Qing dynasties.. Now known as the Palace Museum, it is to the North of Tienanmen Square.. The shape was rectangular and it is the world's largest palace complex and covers 74 hectares.. Surrounded by a six meter deep moat and a ten meter high wall are 9,999 rooms.. It has a gate in each side. The forbidden city is divided into 2 parts.. The southern section, or the outer court was where the emperor exercised his supreme power over the nation.. The northern section, or the inner court was where he lived with his royal family.. Until 1942 when the last emperor of china was driven from the inner court, 14 emperors of the Ming dynasty and 10 emperors of the Qing dynasty had reigned here.. It is listed by UNESCO as the world cultural heritage site in 1987,the palace museum is now one of the most popular tourist attractions world-wide.. It was said that a million workers including 100,000 artisans were driven into the long term hard labor.. Stone was needed quarried from Fangshan, a suburb of Beijing.. A well dug every 50 meters along the road in order to pour water onto the road in winter to slide huge stones on ice into the city.. It has an 8.6 meters wide base reducing to 6.66 meters wide at the top. The angular shape of the wall totally frustrates attempts to climb it.. The bricks were made from white lime and glutinous rice while the cement is made from glutinous rice and egg whites.. These incredible materials make the wall really strong.. Since yellow is the symbol of the royal family, it is the dominant color in the forbidden city.. Roofs are built with yellow glazed tiles, decorations in the palace are painted yellow, even the bricks on the ground are made yellow by a special process.. Wenyuange, the royal library, has a black roof.. The reason is that it was believed black presented water then and could extinguish fire..

Today at school I bring the coins from Singapore as my souvenir

The history:

The coat of arms is a red shield with five white stars resting above a

white crescent. The crescent and five stars are also used on the Singapore flag and other various national symbols. The symbolism of the red color, along with the white crescent and stars is the same as that of the national flag. The supporters of the shield are a lion and a tiger; the tiger symbolizes the historical connections to Malaysia and the lion represents Singapore. Below the supporters is a blue ribbon with the national motto, "Majulah Singapura" written in gold. "Majulah Singapura", which is malay for "Onward Singapore", is also the title of the national song of Singapore

In this day i brought a souvenir from China and it was the terracotta warrior statue's there is many terraccota statue's so it is not just only one , it has different types.
The terraccota were discovered in 1974 by some local farmers in Lintong District, Xi'an, Shaanxi province, near the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor.
The figures vary in height, according to their roles, with the tallest being the generals. The figures include warriors, chariots, horses, officials, acrobats, strongmen and musicians. Current estimates are that in the three pits containing the Terracotta Army there were over 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots with 520 horses and 150 cavalry horses, the majority of which are still buried in the pits.
