IT'S A GREEN VOLCANO

Yes, yes,yes. A green volcano. But it doesn't really matter what colour it is. Today for science we did about five dry ice experiments. One of them was about seeing water freeze on a spoon, another was making our own dry ice volcano like thing, and another one was to see what the difference was when you put dry ice in hot water and when you put dry ice in cold water. I'm not saying the rest.

My highlight of the science today was....
Getting to make my OWN dry ice volcano thing.

Today was funny and ICY!

The Art Gallery and the Lino Print




Why I like the birds: Because how it is all bright colours and I think it has a 3D effect.
Why I like the horses: Because a)  I LOVE HORSES. and b) The way the horses are leaning over looks as though it's a hot day and they need a rest.
Why I like the house: Because of the way the grass leads the way into the house. Also the house has an effect that makes it look 3D.

"Amazing, amazing. I wish I could do that", was the first thing I thought/said as I walked through the doors of an art gallery today.
"How can they do that?"  I thought again. We walked to the art gallery on Don Street because we needed to look at real artist's artwork. My three favourite ones ( as you can see up the top) are: the one with the horses, the one with the house, and the one with the birds.

The refreshing, cold breeze on the way back to Enrich wasn't very inviting. As soon as we got back we got ideas for our lino print. A lino print is basically just a big stamp. My one is going to be an owl. I picked an owl because I LOVE them!
