Science Intensive.

For science intensive we went to class by class so we can see what that class was learning about. The first class that we went to see was room 8 and what we learned from there class was liquid, solid and gas, the three states of matter. After learning about the three states of matter and learning about how it works, we got to do an experiment I enjoyed, turning melted chocolate into solid, we even got to eat it once it was set into a solid. 

I learnt so much from this class about the three states of matter. 

The next day we went to Miss Sigamoney's class where she was teaching us about Earthquakes. I learnt how earthquakes are formed, we even got a challenge. We had to create a two story building using straws, pins, strings, paper clibs and a cardboard base. We had to make our structure strong enough to hold 250 grams of sand and the vibration of the shaking table a bit.

It was fun. 

But on the very first day of Science Intensive we had to stay in our own classes and learn about our own topic which was Insulation. We had learnt about the different types of insulation and for our project we had to make a house showing where the Insulation goes and the names of different types of Insulation.  

Me and Linda had almost finished ours which was good. 

I learnt so much from these topics, I feel like I'm ready to take on a quiz. 


Fitness


Today we had fitness and what we did for fitness today was running around the curt 3 times and we did release.

One of my favourite part of the fitness was the release because it made my body fit and I also like doing release because it makes me run and it is good to have fitness so we can get fit.

I really enjoyed doing fitness today because it gave me energy.
