Yanny Or Laurel?

Hello Bloggers, Today for Literacy we are learning about Laurel and Yanny and about how we hear it and why others hear it different. There is a big discussion around the whole world, about what you hear and what others hear. There is also something similar it is called Green needle and Brainstorm. 

In our Literacy most of us heard Yanny instead of Laurel. The secret is frequency. The audio information that makes us hear Yanny is higher frequency than the audio information that makes us hear Laurel. Some of the variation may be due to the audio system playing the sound. For example you might have a better set of head phones that might make you hear different sounds like the Yanny and Laurel. 

 But some of it is also the mechanics of your ears, and what you’re expecting to hear. Sometimes you could hear both and that is normal for some people. Older adults tend to start losing their hearing at the higher frequency ranges. In the whole world 42% of people hear Laurel, 40% of people hear Yanny and 17% of people hear both. 😄

Here's a link to it, comment what you hear! Do you know any more things like this,? If you do please comment as well.

Treaty Of Waitangi

 Hey Bloggers, for Inquiry we are learning about the Treaty of Waitingi and about the British and the Maori  settlers. So the teachers set us off with a task, the task was to go onto a google doc and write a script being in the British or Maori perspective. I chose to be in a Maori perspective. Then we had to go on a site called Voki and put our writing in it and make a character that look like a Maori settler or a British. Here is the link.
