Infer Meaning

Welcome to my blog today I’m blogging about inferring

Inferring is being able to ‘read within the sentences’

when the author implies something but doesn’t exactly

state it. You need to use the clues in the text and your

own prior knowledge to help you understand.

Etc: “Sarah’s mouth

was dry and she had

a big knot in her

stomach. She wished

today was already

over.”

Materials: 

1.   sellotape
2.   tinfoil
3.   pizza box
4.   black plastic
5.   vivid
6.   ruler
7.   stick
8. newspaper
9. Glad Wrap
10. scissors
11. marshmallow

4.   put black plastic on the bottom of the pizza box on the inside
5.   turn the newspaper into rolls and put them on the sides and corners for insulation
6.   Sellotape everything in place

Conclusion

Hurumanu- wind power

Extreme weather

Measuring weather.

Definitions:

1.  Anemometer:
2. Beaufort wind scale:

MATERIALS 

1. 4 dishes
2.   2 stick
3. tape 
4. 1 pencil 
5. 1 pin

Groups size: 5 

Roles:

• Timekeeper (Taylor)
• Counter(Andrei)
• Recorder (Me)
• Anemometer Manager (JC)
• Wind Manager (Me)

1. Mount the anemometer in a place that has full access to the wind from all directions.
2. When the timekeeper says "Go", the counter in each group will count how many times the marked cup passes them in one minute and write it down.
3. Repeat the above step four (4) times and record the number of spins on the chart.

FINDINGS

• Record how many times it spins and record it in the table below.

• You will need to time them and count the number of spins.

	Place name on school grounds	Number of Spins in 15 seconds
1.	Field	1
2.	Old J Block site	1
3.	Grass hill in the quad	1
4.	Tennis Court gate	2

CONCLUSION:

in conclusion, I was expecting the hill in the field has the most spins.

Wind

Beaufort Wind Scale

Beaufort Force	Wind Speed (KPH)	Spins	Indicators	Terms Used in NWS Forecasts
0	0-2	0	Calm; smoke rises vertically.	Calm
1	2-5	10	Shown by direction of wind smoke drift, but not by wind vanes.	Light
2	6-12	40	Wind felt on face, leaves rustle; ordinary vanes moved by wind.	Light
3	13-20	80	Leaves and small twigs in constant motion; wind extends light flag.	Gentle
4	21-29	130	Raises dust and loose paper; small branches are moved.	Moderate
5	30-39	190	Small trees in leaf begin to sway; crested wavelets form on inland waters.	Fresh
6	40-50	250	Large branches in motion; whistling heard in telephone wires; umbrellas used with difficulty.	Strong
7	51-61	320	Whole trees in motion; inconvenience felt walking against the wind.	Strong
8	62-74	390	Breaks twigs off trees; generally impedes progress.	Gale
9	75-87	470	Slight structural damage.	Gale
10	88-101	550	Seldom experienced inland; trees uprooted; considerable structural damage occurs.	Whole gale
11	102-116	640	Very rarely experienced inland; accompanied by widespread damage.	Whole gale
12	117 or more	730+	Very rarely experienced; accompanied by widespread damage.	Hurricane

Based on your findings what was the Wind Speed and the Beaufort Wind Force for each area.

	Spins per minute	Wind speed ( kph)	Beaufort Scale
Field	4	2-5	1
Old J Block site	4	2-5	1
Grass hill	4	2-5	1
Tennis Court Gate	8	2-5	1
