Today for passion projects we had our first run through and to be honest it was pretty good for our first time. When we went through the acts i gained another role as looney bergonzi and his character is this crazy mad person who is just CRAZY. His character is in the scene where Fat sam And Dandy Dan meetup but it doesn't go as planned.

Musical Theatre - Bugsy Malone
For the 2018 passion projects i'm doing musical theatre and this year for musical theatre we are going to be performing Bugsy Malone. If you didn't know Bugsy Malone is based in the 1920 and in the 1920 things were very different from how we live now. For Bugsy Malone My characters are. I think this going to be entertaining and lots of fun to perform.
Lena - Lena is a character who thinks she is the best and its all about her. She ends up knocking blousey out of the way and making it all about her.
Shady - Shady is a character that is working for sam but is also working for dandy dan and plays a part to set up a crucial scene.
So to understand these characters more i'm going to do some research about what it would be like for them in the 1920s .
What was The Fashion like ?
Girls
The fashion back then is different to the now days back then these were the trendy things for them.
Short Flapper style clothes that provided freedom of movement
Striking Art Deco designs
Cloche hats and bobbed hairstyles
The boyish 'garconne' look and adoption of male clothing
Casual styles for day wear as worn by Norma Shearer ( one of the fashion icons ) in the photo
Fun, fringed flapper dresses or glamorous silk gowns for evening attire
Boys
The essential part of a 1920s man’s wardrobe was his suit. For day, evening, office, or parties, a man always wore a suit. The only exceptions were for blue collar workers, sport players or Young men or collage men who dressed more casually. But, even they owned suits and wore them with pride.
What sets 1920s men’s suits apart from other decades are the material and fit. Suits were mostly made of thick wool or a wool tweed, and pants made of wool based flannel that made them heavier than today’s suit materials but lighter than the previous decades. Suit jackets were either single or double breasted and featured 3 or 4 buttons up the front. The top button came to the center of the heart, giving way to notch lapels. The highness of the suit lapels is what really sets 1920s suits apart from suits of other eras.Also the mens suits were bright colors with vibrant patterns.

Homemade Solar Heaters
Aim= Our aim was to plan,create and test a homemade solar panel. Not only that but our aim was also to use our solar heater that we had created to heat up some water and find out the temperature using a thermometer
Method= First we planned a design that we thought could heat water. the teacher then showed us what design we were going to be creating. we then did a paper mache balloon and left it to sit for a few days. we then popped the balloon and cut the paper sphere in half. we then wrapped the inside of the half circle in tin foil so that you couldn't see any paper on the inside. we then filled up a beaker with water and put it in the inside then left it out in the sun to heat up. we then measured the water to find the results.
Results= In the end the air temperature was 24 degrees and we heated up the water to 37 degrees which is a 13 degrees difference so i would say it worked.

Making Fizzy Drink
Aim=Our aim was to make a fizzy drink.
Ingredients & Equipment=Cup,spoon,citric/tartaric acid,baking soda,Raro/ flavoring ,Water.
Method=First off we took a spoon and cup and started to pour in our citric acid,baking soda, Raro and then filled the cup up with water and then we had our fizzy drink.
Results= When we added the water it bubbled over the top and it was exploding little drips of water everywhere.when we tasted it it had a slight taste of orange raro but then it slowly turned into a citric taste kind of like fizzy lollies without flavor. what was worse was the after taste it lingered in your mouth for ages and it tasted SO bad.But it all depended on how much baking and citric acid i actually put in it.
Conclusion= It tasted bad because the baking soda and the citric acid over powered the flavoring and the baking soda made it salty, bitter taste overpowering every other flavor. The baking soda and the citric acid created carbon dioxide in the water making it grow / make bubbles. The citric acid was an acid and the baking soda is a base and that means that the base plus the acid = CO2

Enzymes
For science today Me and Ella were learning about Enzymes by doing an experiment including jelly.
Aim= What are Enzymes and what they do to the jelly
Ingredients & Materials= Small tray X2 ,Mashed and skinless kiwi fruit , jelly w/ boiling water.
Method= first we cut all the skin off of the kiwi fruit. Second we took the kiwi fruit and mashed it up. Next we spread the mashed kiwi fruit on the tray evenly. After that we poured the jelly into one of the trays that does not have kiwi fruit in and poured jelly in the one that did have kiwi fruit in.
What is a enzyme?= A enzyme is a substance produced by a living organism Which acts as a catalyst to bring out specific biochemical reaction . in other words Enzymes can build or brake down other molecules. The molecules they act on are called substrates. Enzymes are catalysts - Chemicals that hasten a chemical reaction without undergoing any change themselves. Most enzymes are huge protein molecules.

Chromatography With Skittles And Felt Pen
Last Tuesday we did an experiment around chromatography and the experiment that we did was using colors and put it in liquids and then see what happens to the colors.
Felt Pens
Aim=Our aim was to see on the filter paper what the liquid would do to the colors and what colors made the color that we were using.
Materials & ingredients= Type of liquid, Filter Paper,Felt pens,Beaker
Method = First off we took a colored felt pen then put a dot on the bottom of the filtered paper that we had cut out into rectangles. We then poured our liquid into a beaker and dipped the filter paper with the dot on in. When you put the filter paper in the liquid you want to make sure that the colored dot didn't touch the water because then it wouldn't work. After we put the filer paper in the water we held it there for a couple of minuets and then we watched what happened.
Result= in the end the liquid rose through the filter paper and stretched the color out revealing different colors and it looked really cool.
Skittles
Aim= Our aim was to see what happened to the skittles when we let them soak in the water.
Materials & Ingredients= Circular Tray (with lid ),Water,Skittles
Method= First we placed the skittles in the tray evenly spaced then carefully poured the water in. then put on the lid and watch what happens.
Result= In the end the tray looked like a color wheel because the color soaked into the water but stayed in their own section so the colors didn't mix. since all the colors disintegrated into the water it left the skittles white and colorless.

You can see the skittles starting to lose color round the edges
Red Cabbage Indercator
Red Cabbage Indicator
Aim = This Science lesson we were trying to use Red cabbage as a PH indicator
PH levels = The PH levels show in colors to see which house hold items are most acidic.here is a table of the colors of PH levels.
Materials & Ingredients = Red Cabbage , Knife , Boiling Water ,Filter Paper , One large glass beaker , Baking Soda , Washing Soda , Lemon Juice , Vinegar ,Cream of tartar , Antacids , Seltzer Water , Muriatic Acid and Lye ,
House Hold Items To Test.
Method = First we set up our Bunsen burner the put the cabbage in the beaker and boiled it into a liquid, Then we filtered the liquid and poured it evenly into test tubes.
Next we started to add in our house hold items into the liquid in the test tubes then all of a sudden the started to change colors.
Hypothesis = In simpler worlds the cabbage changed the color of other liquids because of the acids in the other liquids so the most acidic color would be Yellowish greenish at the PH level of 12 . And the least acidic color would be red with the PH level of 2 .
Results = In the end these were the house hold items= Sodiumhydrox , Toothpaste , Toilet Cleaner , Lemonade , floor Cleaner , Shampoo.
