Grow your own rainbow - This week we grew our own rainbows this is mine!

I made a word cloud based on water in reading. These words all have something to do with water.

 Last week we learnt about the water cycle. Ee then paired with a buddy ( I was with Cazna) we  got a bag each and we drew a cloud in one corner and the sun in another (the opposite corner) and then we drew a squiggly line at the bottom acting as the sea. We then filled the bag up with water up to the squiggly line. We also got blue food colouring and coloured the water blue! Then we taped the bag to a sunny window. Then the next day we checked the bags and it... worked!   The water evaporated and condensation and then it precipitated!  Evaporation - the sun shines on the water and the water turns  into invisible  gas. Condensation - The gas rises up to the sky where it is colder and the gas turns into clouds. Precipitation - then the gas turns into droplets and when the droplets get too heavy it starts to... rain! ( it can be snow and hail) Collection - and then it goes over and over again 

Me doing hokey This term we are doing Hockey. I love doing hockey because I love to do active things and to learn new things. My favioute part is when we get to pass the ball to each other. Do you know how to play hockey? 

Today, I was a teacher and I taught my dad about Ramadan. I taught about Ramadan because I am moving to the U.A.E and I am interested about the Muslim culture. Ramadan is when Muslims pray seven times a day and fast (don't eat until night fall for 30 days). At the end of Ramadan, Muslims celebrate fasting for 30 days with a spectacular party, called Eid. Muslims also get to see their family too and at Eid there is lots and lots of food, including all of their favourite dishes.  This year, the Muslims won't be able to have big Eid parties because of Covid-19, but I hope they will be able to still celebrate.  

  Isolation Olympics Today we did our own Isolation Olympics. We started with our opening ceremony, then we ran laps with the Olympic Torch (which we made from toilet roll holders) as if it were a relay race. We did the toilet roll waddle, running with a toilet roll in between our knees to put the toilet roll in a box without our hands. We also tried to throw the  toilet roll into the box as if it were a basket ball. Finally, we then got a bat and tried to hit the toilet roll into the box like it was golf and when I scored, I did a victory dance! I loved doing the I solation Olympics.      Click this link to watch my isolation olympics!
