Sergeon

SURGEON

Description of the job
Physician or Surgeon. Physicians and surgeons diagnose and treat injuries or illnesses. Physicians examine patient. Take medical histories. Prescribe medications, and order perform and interpret diagnostic tests. They often counsel patients on diet, hygiene, and preventive healthcare.


Someone who has the job
Claudius Amyand was a French born English surgeon who performed the first recorded successful *big word*. Amyand was born around 1680, the son of Isaac Amyand and Anne Hottot in Mornac, Saintonge, France. As Huguenots, the Amyand's escaped to England following the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685 and settled in London.  Claudius was naturalised at Westminster on 9 September 1698. He became a surgeon, served with the army during the War of the Spanish Succession, and was appointed Sergeant Surgeon to George I in 1715. He would continue in this post under George II retaining it for the rest of his life. He became first the Warden and later the Master of the Company of Barber-Surgeons. He was first Principal Surgeon to the Westminster Hospital, and founder and first Principal Surgeon to St George's Hospital. On 5 April 1716 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society under the name Claude Amyand.

What you think of the job
I think being a surgeon would be awesome. I choose to study a surgeon because I like the Chicago med. The surgeon is my new favourite job I used to like to be a marine biologist.

*sorry for the inconvenience but I can't say big words*

WIND

WHY DOES WIND EXIST???
Wind is caused by differences in the atmospheric pressure. When a difference in atmospheric pressure exists, air moves from the higher to the lower pressure area, resulting in winds of various speeds. On a rotating planet, air will also be deflected by the Coriolis effect, except exactly on the equator.

WHAT IS THE PHYSICS OF THE WIND???
When this air is heated up by the sun, it rises and is replaced by new cool air that rushes in. Usually, wind blows from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure. The Coriolis Effect is the curve of the winds to the right or left due to the spin of the earth.


GOOD EFFECTS OF WIND???
Wind energy comes from the sun. As solar radiation heats the earth’s surface, hot air rises and cool air fills the voids. This air movement is defined as wind energy. Wind that is harnessed via mechanical means is also referred to as wind energy.


BAD EFFECTS OF WIND???
Most of us know how powerful wind is and how devastating it can be when unleashed in vulnerable areas. But wind is also a valuable source of kinetic energy. Humans have harnessed energy from the wind for centuries. We’ve all seen the picturesque windmills gently turning in colorful tulip fields in Holland. Windmills have historically been used to pump water or grind grain and are still used for those purposes. But the more modern windmills that use a wind turbine are able to generate electricity.

CYCLONE COOK




Cyclone Cook Was very destructive. Heavy rain, bringing possible flooding, and strong winds are forecast in eastern Marlborough, Kaikoura and Banks Peninsula, before easing in the afternoon, as Cyclone Cook continues south off the east coast of the South Island.

Wind

How I think wind is formed.

Wind can be formed by anything really. 

I don't know what it can be formed by.

But I think it could be form by rain and the clouds. 

Now it doesn't rain everyday ah? But it could do with the trees as well

Wind is formed by heat pretty weird ah?

We did a experiment today  

This is what my project looks like right now without any chemicals.
