As a consumer knowing your rights is very important. If you are reporting a company for the product the have sold you or something you have paid for, make sure the information you are saying is 100% accurate. If you give false information you can be charged for make wrong accusations about a company.
→ be of acceptable of the quality given to you →Make sure you are fit for their purpose → make sure you match their description → match the sample of the product and demonstration of the model → be supported.

Richard Pearse
26.05.17
Who are they?
Richard Pearse born 3 December 1877, Temuka. Inventor he preformed pioneering experiments in aviation.
What did they create?
Richard Pearse created the first plane ever to fly, on 31 March 1903, nine months before the Wright brothers flew their first aircraft.
What challenges did he face?
People did not believe Richard Pearse created something that could fly. No one really thought his inventions were going to work. Still to this day people believe the Wright brothers created something that could fly before him.
What helped it succeed?
Other people started thinking about a new transportation, where they could created something that flew, this succeeded because people wouldn't of thought about creating something that flew until Richard Pearse and the Wright Brothers invented it.

Science

Mixtures:
A mixture, from different substances, not chemically joined.
Concrete for example ( mixture of cement, sand or gravel, and water. Concrete can be altered by substances that make up the mixture.
Separating Mixtures:
There different substances in mixtures are usually easily separated from one another.
Filtration-Separating a Solid mixed with a Liquid.
Solutions:
When salt or sugar 'disappears' into water, we say that the substance has dissolved in the water.
Some substances don't dissolve (e.g sand will not dissolve in water).
Concentration:
When comparing solutions, it is important to know how much solute has been dissolved in the solvent. Scientists use the terms dilute and concentrated to describe how 'strong' a solution is.
Saturation:
A solution will become saturated when no more solute will dissolve in the solvent. A solution that is saturated has a high concentration. If some of the solvent evaporates from a saturated solution, solution becomes super saturated and crystals of solute will start to form.
Separating Solutions:
Although a solution is a mixture, the solute cannot be separated from the solvent by filtration. The solute will simply pass through the filter paper.
Distillation- Separating a Solid Dissolved in a liquid:
Evaporation is a simple technique for separating a solid dissolved in a liquid. We need to trap the solvent as it evaporates and condense it back into a liquid. Scientist call this process distillation.
Chromatography: Separating a Mixture of Coloured Compounds: Chromatography (chroma- Greek for 'colour' and graphy meaning 'words' or 'pictures'. The pigments separate because they have different solubillities in a solvent. This means that more soluble pigments are carried faster, and therefore further, by the rising solvent.

What am I going to try and achieve today?
Today I am going to work on gluing my decorations onto my container.
Next I will just finish it off fixing thing up and making it look nice, so I'm close to finishing.
19.05.17
What are we doing today?
Today we are going to be working on our containers, and improving them by adding 3D printed handles and decorations etc... I am also going to give the 3D printed items a glossy look by holding them above a certain chemical and let it do its job.
Did I achieve it ?
Yeah I did, i manage to complete everything today finish quicker then I thought I
would.

Growing Crystals
Lenora & Raven
Aim: To make crystals form in a super saturated solution.
Equipment:
Cooper CuSO4
Water
Beaker
Gauze mat
Tripod
Bunsen
Work mat.
Instructions
Pour 50 mL of water into the beaker.
Warm/heat water- bubbling (not quite boiling).
Add cooper sulphate, CuSO4,
Stir until no more dissolves.
Add more CuSO4.
Stir.
After let them sit somewhere safe until they turn to crystals.
Conclusion
The experiment worked out perfectly fine so we now have to wait for the final results.
Explain why your crystals are the way they are:
The crystals are the way they are because, the cooper was boiled at a very hot temperature making the copper dissolve and transform into a bigger piece of crystal, because it had more quantity of copper.
The reason why they are that certain size is because of where they have been placed in the room.
Are the crystals the same shape regardless of size?
The crystals are all the same shape. They all formed the same shape even though they were not the same size. As you can see the shape of the crystals are formed in a diamond shape, no matter what size they each and every single crystals are all the same shape.

Techniques
|
Definition:
|
Example
|
Establishing shot.
|
An establishing shot is usually the first shot of a new scene, designed to show the audience where the action is taking place. It is usually a very wide shot or extreme wide shot.
|  |
Extreme Long shot.
|
a view of a scene that is shot from a considerable distance.
|  |
Long shot.
|
A shot that typically shows the entire object or body figure.
|  |
Mid-Shot
|
a shot taken at a medium distance
|  |
Close-up
|
A shot that is very near to the person or object.
|  |
Extreme close-up.
|
The shot is so tight that only a detail of the subject, such as someone's eyes, can be seen.
|  |
POV shot
|
A shot that’s taken in first person
|  |
Over the shoulder shot
|
is a shot of someone or something taken from the perspective or camera angle from the shoulder of another person.
| ![Image result for over the shoulder shot definition]](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/HHxNZpYd0vaowSRsC4MF94Cv6B8Q829oy_txHJZwxayOoghWOALpHlNcgfsiapPkN-AnShSUd2r5vHtHWyjrYmECtWL5YXALzxuczWYstI4qjzFMyQg289Lu9jqURghtCTdUXR1r) |
Birds eye view
|
View of an object from above
|  |
Low angle shot.
|
Photograph or film sequence taken from below the subject.
|  |
High angle shot
|
camera looks down on the subject from a high angle and the point of focus often gets "swallowed up."
|  |
Tracking shot
|
A tracking shot is any shot where the camera moves alongside the object(s) it is recording
|  |
Panning shot
|
A panning shot is tilting the camera as a panorama to get the entire shot.
|  |
Zoom shot
|
Where it is zoomed in and only focused on 1 thing.
|  |
Fade shot
|
A shot that is used to transition to another scene.
|  |
Wipe shot
|
A wipe shot is similar to a fade shot but it wipes.
