Book Review

 1. What is the name of the book we have read as a class and who wrote it - Holes by Gary Paulson 

2. What was the book about - Holes is a 1998 young adult novel written by Louis Sachar and first published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. The book centers on an unlucky teenage boy named Stanley Yelnats, who is sent to Camp Green Lake, a juvenile detention center in a desert in Texas, after being falsely accused of theft.

3. Who was your favourite and why - ZigZag because he acted tough in the beginning and near the end he got softer and showed a side to him not many had seen before.

4. Did you enjoy the book and why - it was alright, it could of been a bit better but altogether it was pretty good.

5. In the book it says that the warden walked out in shorts but in the movie she walked out in pants, and in the book it said stanley was fat and got bullied for it but in the movie he was skinny

6. did you enjoy the movie and why - yes although it was a little long and i got impatient 

7. would you recommend the book and who to - yes i would and to all ages because I think many people will like it and its set up for young people to like but also older people.

dry ice experiment

 Today in Science we used dry ice to look at sublimation.

Subliming - Solid Gas  

Today we used 

A Beaker or Conical flask, Dry ice, dish wash liquid, balloons, and water 

When we placed the dry ice into the conical flask and the dry ice smoked up in the top part of the conical flask then we placed the balloon on to the flask and the balloon blew up. After a little while we tipped it out and added more dry ice and water into the flask but this time we added dish soap and the dry ice got all soapy and sprayed up in soap studs.

Candle Experiment

                                                            Candle Experiment 

In science today we placed a candle in petri dish with water in it and lit the candle on fire we then placed a cup over top of the candle to lock out the oxygen. 

Aim - To see what happens to the water level when the candle is covered.

Hypothesis - I think the candles flame with go out because the oxygen has been locked out.

Results - The candle went out and the cup sucked up to the petri dish, so if you lifted the cup the petri dish would be stuck to the bottom.

Conclusion - The water rose because it was heating up. The flame was using all the oxygen and eventually it was all gone and the cup stuck to the petri dish. 

Health

 Today in health we played games. The games I played were Connect 4 and Uno.

I won 2 rounds of uno and I won 4 rounds on connect 4.

When I won I felt excited and pumped up to keep trying to beat Khaylanie.

Today I worked with Khaylanie, Bailey, and Nishitha.

i think we worked very well together because we didnt put each other down when the other person lost and we kept a good sport and a nice competitive style.

Out of the CARR values I demonstrated  Respect, Resilience, and achievement.
