Passion Projects

It's been 2 terms now since we've done Passion Project and its finally come to an end a few days ago, I had a lot of fun doing passion projects cause I got to do it with people I knew, which in my opinion made the whole thing a lot better.

My favorite part of Passion projects was the ending part.
After all our research we got to play around with fake blood and learn about splatter patterns.
If there's a drop of blood and its a full circle and its big then its just blood that's dripped down from a wound. If there's a circle that has pointy excess bits coming off it then its from the banging of a hammer and if there's small droplets of blood that's near that hammer input then its from the blood from the hammer flying off the hammer. I have to say that learning about splatter patterns was my favorite part of my passion projects as I had a lot of fun.

We also got to create a crime scene for a teacher and create her death.

If I get to do passion projects again I honestly can't wait to try something new as doing this was a highlight of my day.

Passion Projects

For Wananga we are doing passion projects for term 3 and half of term 4.
For passion projects I am doing Forensic Science. I picked this cause I enjoy science and want to

take Forensics as my future job.

In Forensics we are first doing a bit of research, the things we are researching are somethings that Forensics' would do. The research we find out we put on a doc and gather more information about the technique

I picked, Fingerprints, Scene of crime officers and Toxicology.
I picked Fingerprints as my first topic because it's what got me into Forensics in the first place and I really like the challenge behind trying to find out who's fingerprint belongs to who. I picked scene of crime for my second because they go to crime scenes and investigate take back what they find and put it through things to either find out what happened, who the victim was and who was the murder. This I really like as they also involve themselves with DNA. And lastly Toxicology I just picked this as a random but I think it's a good thing I picked it as Toxicology goes over the protentional poisons or drugs found within a victim.

The part that I'm really excited about is when we reach the end of passion projects our teacher for the subject will create a crime scene that we will have to solve.
