Responsibilities of a Bar/Bat Mitzvah

Well, first you must be wondering how life Bar/Bat Mitzvah is When you hit the age of Bar/bat mitzvah. Well, you become an adult and get full responsibility for your Judaic life such as getting to decide if you wish to keep kosher or take part in service at shul and more. If you have ever walked in on a weekday service you may have seen people wearing black called tellin.

You may have seen people wearing black boxes called tefillin on their arms or heads because after the second temple was destroyed they wore it to connect with God with prayers. We used to connect to God by sacrificing animals but when the second temple was destroyed we had to stop doing that and connect to God with with prayer. To make it even more holy, We used a prayer shawl. The black boxes mean like they symbolize the mind and the soul. Inside the black boxes, are Torah versus the Shema which is rare. The most interesting about this entire thing was probably that there are special snails called Chilazon that die tzitzit blue and they thought they were mythical snails that only came out on full moon but actually, they were seasnails. I have no further questions.

 

Innovation Day Reflection 2024

At the beginning of invasion day, I had the jitters I was so scared. Then I presented my project to my parents and my partner’s parents. This was the first time we presented to someone for real. we presented a few more times to others. Everyone that we presented to said it was good others said it was amazing. This made me lose the stress and jitters. The next day we presented to the judges then the jitters came back. Then the first judge came she said it was really good. My pattern said the same about my performance the one bad thing that happened was my dyslexia it had kicked in mid-way through. After that, it was all gone once again but forever this time. I will fix it by practising more.

Proof We Did Some Thing In Jewish Studies This Term

This term we learnt about Baby naming, Brit Milah, Pidyon Haben, and Shalom Zachar these are important because it shows personal Judaism.

this is my Mishpacha project. It’s all about my name and where I came from. I learnt a lot about my family history. For explain I learned that I’m Ashkenazim and some of my family is from Russia. If I did more I whed leand more about were I come from.

Proof we did something this semester in Social Studies

This term in Social Studies we learned about Canadian identity. We explored diversity among the provinces, national symbols, and international organizations that Canada plays a role in 

 

What makes Canada diverse:The benefits of being different are not the same. In a friends group, you need different types of people to make a good and stable person. People have different roles such as an idea guy (me!) the glue (holds the group together) and then there are the smarts. Everyone brings a different strength and quality to make the group better. A stable friend group is a rainbow. Diversity can positively impact a community because it adds character to all of the residents, which means that you can tell your story. Everyone would have their own story and they would have this because of the character. You build this character by interacting with other people and hearing their stories. When you are a part of a diverse community it brings personality, you learn to deal with other people and not be a jerk and see the differences in everybody.

 

Nunavut and PEI are different. Nunavut is snowy and holds some of the largest groups of indigenous people. But PEI is warm and ‘isandly’ and has European ancestry. The Natural features in Nunavut are different from PEI because Nunavut has ice and mountains and has colder temps. In PEI, Natural features in PEI have dunes, barrier islands and beaches, sand pits and associated wetlands.

 

In Nunavut, Iqaluit, is the largest community in Nunavut. The population is more than 7,740. Arviat is the second largest community with a population of approximately 2,657.  Eight other communities, including Cambridge Bay and Rankin Inlet, have populations of over 1,000 people.

In PEI, the capital and largest city is Charlottetown. However, Belfast is the largest city by land area. The smallest city by population and land area are Tignish Shore and St. Louis.

 

The climate in Nunavut is different from PEI because Nunavut is cold. Winters can be very harsh. In Iqaluit the temp drops to -27°C. In -32°C in Pond Inlet. Summers can be quite nice, with temperatures ranging from  11°C in Baker Lake in July to 6°C in Hall Beach. PEI’s climate is very beautiful and has nice Summers, between June and August, ranging from 21°C and 26°C. Sometimes it can go up to 32°C. Winters can be cold and snowy from November to April. The temp can be -3 to -11 degrees.

 

In PEI,the biggest industry is  building industries including; aerospace and defense Jobs. This is different to Nunavut, where lots of people do arts and crafts, hunting, fishing, tourism and transportation as jobs. Economy in the territories such as Nunavut is not, they don’t have lots of the goods so they import. Things like food and building materials cost a lot more. 

 

Canada is a bilingual country. In Quebec, people speak mostly french. They are called francophone and in the rest of Canada mostly english. They are called Anglophones.

Nunavut is located in the North of Canada and is one of three territories. Finally, PEI is located in the east of Canada. It is near the provinces of Newfoundland and Labrador and Nova Scotia. This collection of provinces is also called  the Maritimes.

Innovation Day

What’s popping it’s your boiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Waterking. Today I will tell you about Innovation now you what I going to tell you about. Lets get into it.

 

Kittystars’s family wasn’t impacted at all but however , WaterKing’s family was impacted badly because WaterKing and his brother have health conditions.

 

Before COVID we were able to breathe “freely” without masks or face coverings, but during COVID, in certain places we were forced to wear masks.

 

The biggest challenge for both of us was online school because there were so many distractions at home and neither of us could learn anything because the lessons were long and boring.

 

The hard part of covid for the least fortunate was the cold weather and the lack of medicine and vaccines at their disposal.

 

What were the positives and negatives of COVID?:

 

Negative: People were getting sick and some were dying, a lot of kids were converted into homeschooling or lots of kids in school were participating in online school.

 

Positive: Some kids were happy because their parents worked from home and they saw them more.

 

Wind Energy:

 

What is wind energy? Wind energy is the energy of moving air.

What is a wind turbine?

A wind turbine is an object that uses kinetic energy to power things.

We are going to incoporate wind energy by using a wind turbine as our base of our ferris wheel and when it turns it creates kintec energy and moves the ferris wheel. 

Water Energy:

 

What is water energy? Water energy is energy derived from water. Water energy is used when water is moving and people turn it into energy because of how strong the pressure is. When the water pressure is high it creates kinetic energy. Forms of water energy are water clocks and waterwheels. A more recent innovation has been Hydroelectricity, the electricity powerd by water moving over dams.

We are adding water energy in a way that the capsules on the ferris wheel will push the water and create kinetic energy.

 

Solar Energy:

 

What is solar energy? Solar energy is energy is energy made from the sun.

What is a solar panel? A solar panel is a board that is made up of silicone, metal and glass that makes energy out of the suns rays.

We are using solar energy by adding solar panels around the outside of the ferris wheel and the solar energy that is being provided from the solar panels is being used to power the glowing Mickey Mouse head in the middle and lots of the extra things like the Animatronics and the gears that run the capsules.

 

What are some other types of renewable energy?

Hydroelectric 

Hydroelectricity depends on flowing water form one place to another it relies on the force of gravity to ensure that water always flows.Hydroelectricity is electricity produced form multiple generators made from turbines that make energy from the strong flowing water.

 

Biomass

Biomass energy is energy produced by once living or living organisims. The most common things to make biomass energy are plants like corn and soy. The energy from these thing can be burned to create heat, or converted to energy.

 

What are the environmental impacts of wind and solar farms?

Wind farms empact nature, they change the wind direction for migrating birds and the large wind turbine blades are distracting and frightening.

 

Solar farms empact land and nature, solar panels are made with hazardous chemicals and heavy metals and when people plant the solar panels in the ground the chemicals are released as they’re being used and the chemicals ruin and kill ground.

Our idea is to make a DisneyWorld ferris wheel with a cute glowing Mickey Mouse head in the middle.

We are using lot’s of renewable energy sources, wind, water and solar. We’re using solar energy by putting solar panels on the perimiater of the ferris wheel and those panels we’ll power the engine, gears, lights and such. We are using water energy because the ferris wheel capsules push the water when the are submerged and creat kinetic water energy. We are using wind energy by also, creating kinetic from the moving wind turbine blades. We are making our prototype by building it, starting with the base, a wind turbine then using decoration items, making it look original and pretty.
