The egg drop

Hello bloggers. Today in class we have done a little bit of an experiment using an egg. The idea is that you need to be in a group of 5 and using the materials given build a package for the egg so it can be dropped off Skyhigh. The idea is that you need to egg to survive the fall with no cracks. What would you have done for your design?

A holocaust website

                                                (THIS TOPIC MAY BE DISTURBING)


                                                             The Link To My Website

 Hello bloggers. Today we have made a website on the holocaust. What's the holocaust? The holocaust is one the worst events in history when Adolf Hitler went on a genocide exterminating and killing European Jews.

One of the books we read for this topic was "Once" A book based on the events of WWII and the holocaust. The book is around Felix a Jewish boy who is stuck in an orphanage by his parents. He eventually breaks out of this orphanage and tries to find his parents but learns the truth about whats Hilter is doing.

What Hitler would do during the holocaust was take Jewish people and put them in camps. But these were no ordinary camps these were concentration camps in which Hitler would put Jews in and make life harder. Until he wanted to kill off a big bunch of people he made extermination camps. Hitler executed millions of Jewish people during these times.

After reading the book and learning more we were asked to make some questions about Once and the holocaust and answer them. One of my questions was "When did the holocaust start" The answers to these questions and a few more are on my website.

I made a few connections between two questions which were "How could Jewish people be identified" and How many Jews did the Nazis execute" These questions have a connection between how much Hitler hated Jewish people and how they were treated differently from others.

What would you do if someone was getting bullied because of their race? Aside from that please leave a comment on my blog for any mistakes I may have made and BYE.
