The science behind the voice


                            The science behind the voice.

This is the explanation of Yanny and Laurel. 

By now you've probably heard of the Yanny or Laurel phenomenon.What did you hear? Yanny or Laurel? This question is driving heaps of people INSANE! are you wondering why some people hear yanny, And some hear laurel? Well, It's time to find out. 

The Yanny and Laurel clips are distorted, it contains a lot of high frequency information, more than usual, it turns out that the different speech sounds we hear depend on what frequencies are in those sounds. so some sounds like  aaaaa or mmmm have a lot of low frequency information in them. and sounds like sssss or eeeee have a lot of high frequency information in them. the difference between you hear Yanny  or Laurel is whether you hear a high or low frequency,

some people have trouble hearing high frequencies (like anny) this just means they're getting older or their hearing isn't what it used to be. some causes of having trouble with hearing high frequencies can be , playing the drums without earplugs or earmuffs, going to heaps of rock concerts, using headphones that dont have a good enough quality,  being in an space with too much noise, or even anything that damages your ability of hearing high frequencies. 

  I think that should have explained the Yanny and Laurel Phenomenon If that didn't give you an explanation on whether you hear Yanny or Laurel, You might want to watch the video at the top, but otherwise I've explained why you might hear Laurel and not Yanny, I've explained why some hear differently, and I've tried to explain the Yanny and Laurel phenomenon as best as I can. Make sure to check my blog every Friday for a new post! Bye for now team!

K.O.S comic strip

                                                                
                                            This is my K.O.S comic strip! 


K.O.S stands for keeping ourselves safe, In this lesson we focused on keeping ourselves and others emotionally safe, 
in this comic strip this girl feels left out, but her friend doesn't leave her she stays with her friend, she knows she's responsible of keeping her friend emotionally safe in this situation and she knows to do the right thing and look out for her friend. Just think, sometimes we are responsible someone else's emotional safety, sometimes our friends and family need us, so we need to be there to keep them emotionally safe. bye for now team, and remember to be back for another post every week.

my pepeha!

                                                 Don't Māori just have a way with words?


 This is my pepeha!
 In term 1 2021 for the Toroa syndicate, our teachers said '' we're going to learn our Pepehas!' So our teachers explained what our first was and we had to learn our pepehas and for our second task we had to make a copy of a Pepeha slide show and type in our Pepehas on the lines. and finally for our third and final task we went on adobe spark and created a video each of our Pepeha and we had to create and record ourselves saying our Pepehas! I hope you enjoyed my Pepeha.



since My Pepeha is about me, wanna watch my all about me video? it's just right below this sentence!

 




Term 1 this year, we all made presentations about ourselves! 
my video reflects on all the fun and funky features about me! 
our teachers showed us what we needed to do on Canva to make these videos our own!
I hope you like this video! The making of this video was very fun, and I hope it helped you learn a little more about me! Maybe you should make one too!
