Gabriel take a seat
Gabriel L. designs three chairs - Super Strong Tomas, Silliest Mum, and Super Maxi. Super Strong Tomas is made of metal and features sushi; it is strong but not soft. Silliest Mum is a spring chair made of wood, fabric, and paint that is soft and colorful for naps. Super Maxi is made of old wood and features a special drink to get strong.

The document outlines plans for students to present designs to their classmates, including designs for Santa's sleigh with features like seat belts and skiis, a throne for receiving visitors with a headrest and information pad, a toy collection vehicle with a toy box and electric wheels, and a voting process for the classmates to provide feedback on the pros and cons of each design.
Biomimicry in the Clean Energy World
This document discusses various examples of biomimicry being applied in clean energy technologies. It describes how oysters inspired a non-toxic solution to prevent hard water scaling in solar thermal pipes. Shark skin was mimicked to create non-toxic coatings that prevent barnacles from attaching to water turbines. Other examples discussed include arranging solar panels and wind turbines based on patterns in nature like oak trees, rice leaves, schools of fish and humpback whale fins to improve efficiency. Strategies from camels, saguaro cacti and hibernating bears are also cited for insights into thermal regulation, water collection and energy conservation.
Take a seat pablo T
Pablo describes his chair that has features to help catch enemies such as throwing spiderwebs and having a protective power shield. The chair has pros like its automatic web thrower and power shield defenses, but cons are that the power shield only lasts 5 minutes, the chair needs to recharge after throwing webs multiple times, and its fast propeller engines drain the battery quickly.
Welcome to year 5
The document provides information about Year 5 curriculum expectations for students. Some of the topics that will be covered include Ancient Egypt, water usage around the world, states of matter, health, the earth and space, life cycles, and sound. Students are expected to work hard, be organized, respect others, participate fully, and improve their mental math skills over the summer break in preparation for Year 5.
Take a seat maria
The document describes a tiny magical forest creature that works hard and has many animal friends in the forest. It then discusses a design for a forest creature made from recycled materials like an empty thread roll, paint, fabric, stickers and foam. The design has pros of being small, colorful and capturing the forest's motifs, but cons of being difficult to make and not usable as a bed. The designer thanks the reader for their attention.
Take a fantastic seat juan2
This document describes 3 chair designs created by Juan Quero featuring characters Doraemon, Santa Claus, and Jerry. Each chair is decorated for the character and includes features like plants, a laptop, fridge for Doraemon, presents box for Santa, and a rocket for Jerry to escape cats. The author hopes people enjoy learning about their creative chair designs.

This document provides information on several popular tourist spots in Palawan, Philippines. It discusses the Calauit Wildlife Sanctuary, a nature reserve home to African species like giraffes and zebras. It also mentions El Nido Marine Reserve, known for its limestone cliffs, beaches, and diverse wildlife like manta rays. Another spot highlighted is Tubbataha Reefs, a marine sanctuary in the Sulu Sea praised for its marine life and recently named a World Heritage Site. Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park features an 8 km underground river flowing through a spectacular cave. Coron Reefs attract divers to its sunken WWII shipwrecks. Additionally, it outlines the Lepro

Take a seat pedro
This document describes a seat designed for the character Humpty Dumpty. The seat is meant to be soft, comfortable, and funny, made of materials like candy cotton, plastic, and glass. It has features that allow one to eat candy cotton and turn around, but could also cause one to fall or get sick due to the spinning.

1) This document presents an efficient and noise-tolerant protocol for device-independent quantum key distribution (DIQKD) that is secure against arbitrary quantum devices and adversaries.
2) The protocol introduces tools to analyze a quantum adversary, including the quantum reconstruction paradigm and guessing game framework.
3) It identifies "good" rounds of the protocol where the adversary can guess one party's output with low probability, and uses information theoretic tools to bound correlations and prove security via monogamy.
Year 5 Parent presentation
This document provides information for parents of students in Year 5 (ages 9-10) at an international school. It outlines the class tutors, classrooms, PE schedule, homework expectations, behavior monitoring system, reading requirements, use of diaries for communication between school and home, and upcoming units of study in core subjects for the 2014-2015 school year. Students are expected to speak English at all times in class. The end of term reports will use criteria of "getting ready", "going steady", and "got it!" instead of grades. A class trip is planned for the final term to Doñana National Park.
Year 4 Parents meeting
The document outlines the curriculum plans and expectations for an English class. It discusses focusing on speaking English through paired and group work before writing. Reading goals are set for each term involving a variety of materials. Spelling and math homework are assigned weekly along with a long-term design project. Classroom policies on uniforms, snacks, and equipment are also mentioned. A day trip and potential longer trip are noted.

This document provides summaries of several popular tourist spots in Palawan, Philippines, including:
- Calauit Wildlife Sanctuary, home to exotic animal species relocated from Africa.
- El Nido Marine Reserve, known for its diverse ecosystems like rainforests and limestone cliffs that are habitat for wildlife like manta rays and dugongs.
- Tubbataha Reefs, a marine sanctuary and UNESCO World Heritage Site known for highly diverse marine life including rare sea cows.
- Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park, featuring the world's longest underground river flowing through a spectacular cave.
- Coron Reefs, known for diving at numerous sunken
Rosario take a seat
The document discusses two chair designs from Juan Magan's collection. The Juan Magan Music Chair is described as decorative but uncomfortable and noisy due to its high, strong legs. The Juan Magan Wood Chair Collection is praised for its strength, stability, and variety of models but criticized for its lack of decoration and comfort. Both chairs have pros and cons discussed.
DEEP LEARNING FOR HUMAN VOCALIZED ANIMAL SOUNDS
Understand Deep Learning at it’s core. We will investigate audio based, deep learning strategies for identifying human vocalized animal sounds. In one case, we’ll see how Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs), were used as inputs into a supervised, logistic regression neural network. In a separate case, we’ll show how Short Term Fourier Transforms (STFT), were used to generate PCA whitened spectograms, which were used as inputs into a supervised, convolutional neural network. We’ll talk through how the MFCC method trained quickly on a relative small dataset while the STFT method resulted in a much larger input matrix, resulting in much longer times for converging onto a solution.

- 2. You have finished year 3. You´re ready for the next adventure…..
- 19. liked designing and making loved habitats and acting books with moving parts. out an Aztec sacrifice. remembers forces and loved brain friction outside! enjoyed acting as “The bleeders in Frenchman” in the remember acting out an maths. Butterfly lion. Aztec sacrifice. liked the experiments in science, especially electricity. liked making parachutes. liked drawing Rangoli patterns outside. liked maths challenges. liked designing tiles. thought making paper spinners rocked!
