Tricks of advertising

It's time to get smart when it comes to advertising! Some of these videos might be a little old but the tricks they show are still used... Click on the title and it should take you to the video.

Food advertising tricks!

Fast Food: compare the picture on the ad to a picture of the real thing.

Are those toys really as cool as they look on TV?

Are you a pepsi or coke fan? Do they really taste that different? Maybe you like one or the other because of the advertising and marketing...not because of the taste difference. Have a look at this experiment: Pepsi or Coke?

When you have watched the videos, post a comment explaining one thing you have learned or something that surprised you from the video. Make sure you leave your name on the comment.

Slippery Science

Yesterday room 16 students made slime & flubber.

The slime was made using Cornflour, Water & Colouring. Only the African flight crew got it right.

The flubber used pva glue, Borax,Water & colouring. Again, only the Africans got it correct.

It took all afternoon to make. It was an oowey gooey mess. Here are some photos & videos of what we had done.

From this weeks photographer Nikita. :) :) :)

Mad machines!

We had three Canadians visit us for an afternoon. They told us a bit about Canada and did an activity with us called Mad Machines. It was fun pretending to be a mad machine assembly line... when Steph cranked up the machines they went faster and faster until they exploded! Have a look at the videos and photos!

Tyler's gone!

We said goodbye to a great student last week. Tyler has moved to Lincoln and we will miss him! We have been thinking of him since the big earthquake hit, hoping he is ok. I guess he's had a few days off school! On his last day we had a party at lunch time. Some of the boys turned up the music and had a bit of a dance. Check out Jacobs moves in the video
