MAD Scientest Day!

On Friday the 23rd of November we had a MAD Scientist Day. My experiments were Flying tea bag and Bubbly Custard. I tried the Bubbly Custard experiment 1st so I added the custard powder into baking soda and mixed. Then I added the red food colouring+vinegar and it fizzed up and was really bubbly. After that I tried the next experiment. I got a tea bag then cut the ends off then put the flavouring in the bin and put it on a plate Miss Workman got matches and light it but unfortunately it didn't work :)

The steps to make it were:
1. Pour the cup of cornflour in the bowl
2.Next grab the half cup of water and add the 2 drops of food colouring
3.Pour water slowly in to bowl (Tip make sure you put the water in at different times put a little bit to start then pour more in)

Bike Wise

On the 7th of November Room 15 did bike wise a Police lady came in to talk to us about biking on the road. We practised our hand signals on the courts and our stop hand siganls. We had to make sure that our helmet was on properly and make sure it was in good condition. Then we checked that our bike was all good. The Police lady made a track on the courts and it was like a road it had give was and it had stops and round abouts. It was like a real road but for bikes It was really fun and really cool I want to do it again!

On Wednesday the 6th of November Hiwi the Kiwi came to visit our school. It was really cool and very funny the mans name was the Minstrel when ever someone went up there to tell him the answer to the question  he called them boo boo! The Minstrel sang lots of groovy songs and his wife showed us different dance moves so we could boogie to the music.
