Softball tournumant

Softball Tournament

On Sunday last week I had a softball tournament and we versed 3 other teams so there was 4 teams in total, We played PCU and to riccarton teams.

The first team we versed was PCU they were the best team in the tournament and we lost that game then we played riccarton and we won that game 3-2.

The we versed the last riccarton team and we tied that game then we had a break and then we found out that we didn’t make it into the finals because it was for the team that won their last game they had and we won but not by enough points so we came third.

Then we all found out that two people in our team made it to the south island team and the canterbury team we were all proud of them.

Then on saturday last week we had to play PCU and we lost that game because we only had one person get home but we had fun.

The positions I play are Center outfield, Left outfield and 3rd base and first base, and sometimes when I am off I go behind the fence and sometimes I help the catcher by standing behind them just in case the ball goes behind them.

The thing I like about softball is it is fun and it gets you out of the house so what if you get hurt everyone should play it is a really fun game and I will recommend it for people that love to smack balls with a bat and I never give up.

Just because I lose it is still fun because I get to meet some of the greatest people and I made some new friends.

Next season I am going to play and I am going to be under 15 next season

Solar Energy


Aim: To find out which colour attracts the suns heat.

Hypothesis: 

I think that the silver is going to heat better because it is tin foil it is metal.


Materials:

  1.  x3 cups (x1 plastic cup x2 styrophome cup)
  2.  x1 tin foil paper
  3.  x1 paper
  4.  x1 black plastic
  5.  x1 thermometer
  6. x1 heat lamp

Steps

  1.  Get your 3 cups 
  2.  Put the tin foil cup on the tin foil
  3.  Put the plastic cup on the plastic
  4.  Put the white cup on the white paper
  5.  Pour the water in the cups 1/4 way
  6. Turn the heat lamp on and put it in front of all the cups
  7. Put a timer on for 15 minutes and wait
  8. When that 15 minutes is up put the thermometer in the cup for 1 minute then  take it out for 1 minute and see what it is
  9. Do all the other cups
  10. Record your findings
  11. Lastly do your conclusion

Findings:
