Great'and Grand's Day 2019

Last Friday  we had our Great and Grands day unforchanitly my grandparents did not make it. We did performances and dancing. We had a delicious morning tea and played games.
Here is my poem I wrote for my grandparent.

Handwriting

At the end of this term we had to do a handwriting sample. We had to use capital and lower case letters and write a sentence about our science fair. What I like about my handwriting is that all my letters sit on the lines.  What I could do better is form my letters correctly.#

Garden to Table term 3

Today at Garden to Table I was in the kitchen. We made fruit kebabs with marshmallows. We cooked fritters and quiche. We made some coleslaw too. Then we had a picnic.

Science Fair

Yesterday we had our  school  science  fair. My investigation was about flight with paper planes.

musical Instruments

Team Awa made instruments using recycled materials. I really like that it makes a sound.
I made a guitar using a big box a paper towel roll and plastic bands.

Here is my musical  instrument.

Scientific Writing

We have been learning how to write scientific reports. We did an experiment and made a balloon hovercraft.

TITLE
Balloon Hovercraft
QUESTION



How does a hovercraft hover?

HYPOTHESIS
I predict that the hovercraft will float up.

EQUIPMENT AND MATERIALS:
Cd, balloon, bottle cap.

PROCEDURE:
Step 1 Using a hot glue gun, glue the bottle cap over the CD hole.
Step 2: Blow up a balloon. When it is fully inflated twist the end so no air comes out.
Step 3: Stretch the balloon over the bottle lid.
Step 4: Open the cap and place the CD on the table.
Step 5: Untwist the balloon & let go.

OBSERVATIONS/RESULTS:
I found out that the air from the balloon creates a path of air.

CONCLUSION:
The air from the balloon creates a cushion of moving air between the disc and the surface. The air lifts the CD and reduces the friction which allows the CD to hover across the surface.

Volume and Capacity

This week we used popcorn to learn about volume and capacity.
