From Sea to Sustainable Solutions and Products

My Endeavour is sustainable seaweed solutions I chose this because I wanted to raise awareness on how much better seaweed can be for the environment than other products like plastic. Seaweed can be used for many different things such as plastic; seaweed can be made into plastic by turning the plastic into sugars and then fermented into plastic. This is better because if the seaweed plastic gets picked up by the wind and blows into the ocean it will not matter because seaweed grows in the ocean anyway therefore it cannot harm the oceans, and the animals can just eat the seaweed. It can also replace paper and many other things.  

Seaweed is home to many different species because it protects them and provides food for them. Many animals choose seaweed because it has lots of nutrition for them. It also provides shelter from predators for them. 

I have made; one video on why we should save seaweed; some posters; dried seaweed; I made some fertilizer; a letter to the founder of Ishga (a seaweed beauty brand); I done an essay about some things to do with my Endeavour; wrote two pages full of notes about my Endeavour; cooked some seaweed.

My Endeavour Project

My Endeavour project is soldering i chose this project because i wanted to try something new. I never done this project before so i though i might give it  a go. the first thing i done in my Endeavour was write a letter to colin furze about top tips in soldering i told him what i made  already and the fact i done and what i am trying to achieve and the first thing i should do in soldering.  And after that i done some research and then got in to soldering. the first one i made was tricky and hard because. I burnt myself a couple times and the rainbow LED didn’t work but i try the rainbow LED a couple more times but then i thought of trying the candle light.

And then the candle light work so then i made two. and both of them work so i thought if i can make a candle light i can make make a rainbow LED but i still couldn’t  the rainbow LED. So i done more research and thinking how i should make the rainbow LED and how people in world think of soldering world wide and how i should be a good job.

My Endeavour

My endeavour is landscape painting it is coming along very well I have made 5 paintings for the endeavour fair. A few weeks ago I sent Dietmar finger a letter about if he can help me with my endeavour I picked landscape painting because I have Allways loved painting things in primary 3 I painted a picture of a bird and in primary 4 I painted a picture of a cherry blossom tree. 

I will probably sell my paintings for £1.50 each I think that my project is going to be a little bit hard because landscape painting is very hard and challenging for me I think my 5 painting look pretty good. I think my endeavour is going to go really good and I hope I will make at least £35 when the endeavour fair ends. 

I think painting was a very good pick for me I hope that the people like them when the endeavour fair starts so far I have painted pictures of: mounters, and the moon in the clouds, and the woods

My Hydrogen Endeavour

My Endeavor is hydrogen. It’s a big topic and the reason I did it is because my dad works for a hydrogen company called Protium I was very interested in hydrogen and all its facts like it’s the most abundant element in the world. Also it can be used for cars and planes we could stop oil and fossil fuels. But its about what I have been doing let’s see.

So far I have made three sheets of information, mascot and a presentation but at my house where me and my dad make hydrogen we have made a model of a car and and we have clear water with no minerals just clear so we pour that into the electrolizer and it separates the o2 ( oxygen) and the h2 (hydrogen) we store the hydrogen and then release the oxygen and we put that hydrogen through a chute and into the model car  to power it . and that’s how I am making hydrogen but there is some obstacles like getting the clear water getting the time to do it but I just push through it I really enjoy doing this Endeavor finding out all the different facts like OVER 70% OF THE UNIVERSE IS MADE UP OF HYDROGEN! and there is even more facts and I just can’t wait  to tell everyone at the Endeavour fair.

What is an Endeavor?  Endeavor is a fun project what you can choose like game design. Endeavor is for p5 to p7 endeavor my last endeavor was games creation like on scratch and on Kodu games lab.

MY RECYCLED CLOTHES ENDEAVOUR

My Endeavour: Designing Recycled Clothes 

The reason why I chose sewing is because I have always had a passion for it. I think sewing is a really good hobby because of all the interesting techniques you can learn but some of it can be hard. My favourite thing to make is pillows because they aren’t as difficult. There are different stitches that you can learn. My mom taught me how to do most of it. Now I know how to do circles, squares and even know how to make scenes. The hard thing is trying to figure out where everything goes, what happens and what happens if the sewing machine breaks and where everything goes. I really enjoy it, and I think you will too. There’s a lot of things I don’t enjoy like when the wool runs out and I have to reset the whole thing which is really annoying.  

I think you should start to recognise it’s a really good hobby. And you can make your own clothes and not have to chuck things out and you can make your own business and then you won’t have to buy all this material. You can make teddies, you can make stockings and you can even make calendars for Christmas.

Dinosuars P12

Our topic this term is dinosaurs and we are raising lots of money to have the Natural History museum in Scotland come and visit us!  We have carried out a bingo, a map quest and a sponsored walk.  We have also started a floorbook of learning.  We have been busy creating a dinosaur display for our classroom complete with palaeontologist lab!

Having talked about the extinction of the dinosaurs and the asteroid, we investigated how impact craters were made. We looked at some craters that you can see on the Earth and looked at the moon’s surface. Our idea was that the bigger craters were caused by bigger asteroids so we tested this out with a variety of balls, marbles and rocks. We also changed the angle of impact to see what difference this made.

We loved having the museum visit and learning about dinosaurs!

COOPERING ENDEAVOUR

On the April 15th we started our Endeavour endeavor is when you get to pick your own mini topic  and It is challenging and it has to be learning you don’t know a lot of and you want to learn. Mine is coopering if you don’t know coopering is making whisky barrels.

I got to go on a trip to Bowmore Distillery and I got to learn about all the different tools the coopers use I also made my own cask. I also sent a letter to my uncle peter who is a cooper and to a coopering place in England. But since coopering Is quite dangerous I had to fill in a risk assessment. I have got a Website and I made stuff from barrels like candle holders which I’m going to sell. I picked this because I was interested in How barrels where made.

Here is a link to the website I made.

My Endeavour

On April the fifteenth we started a project called Endeavour. It is a project that we do every year in school you pick it on your own. It needs to be ambitious related to the world of work and and you need to know new learning (something you didn’t know before).

My Endeavour is bird and bat boxes the first thing that you needed to do was if it is something dangerous like drilling and sawing you would need to do a risk assessment. Then you would start off your plans and create a proto type . After that you could actually start to build the bird and bat boxes the best thing about this Endeavour is that you can easily do it from home. I have also created a power point and a poster.

My Joinery Endeavour By William Allan Campbell

This is my Endeavor and it Endeavor is a challenging  project that you know nothing about but at the end of endeavor you’ll know every thing about it.

I chose joinery for my E ndeavor because  I have always wanted to be a joiner because you always are working with wood and that is one of my favorite things to do.

The people that helped me was Mr. Pollock  for the ladybird book and the wood that he sent me. My dad and brother have also helped by showing me how to use the tool and  how to identify the type of wood and how old it is.

So far in my Endeavor I have made a butt joint, lap joint and a miter butt joint. My favorite thing I had built was a copping board but I’m going to build a bird table for my mane project. I have been doing some designs for my bird table and chopping board and hopefully I will get  my bird table soon.

Here is my sway on joints and quiz.
