Here is an example:

5 x 26 = 130
5 x 20 =100
5 x 6 = 30

3 x 124 = 372
3 x 100 = 300
3 x 20 = 60

Growing Sugar Crystals


Yesterday Room 7 made sugar crystals!

First we made a saturated solution.  We  dissolved the sugar into water over heat to make it.

Next we  got  our cup and made it with an ice-block stick and string dangling into the cup.

Then we poured the sugar solution into the cup and made sure our string was dangling into the solution.

Last of that we put our cup on the window sill to make crystals.

My predictions:
I think when the sun will suck all the water up and there will only be sugar crystals left and the will grow and stick to the string.

Tennis

This morning room 7 went out to the courts to play tennis.
We learnt lots of skills. We played a game called poke. We had to poke the ball off other peoples bat, we had to keep the ball stable.To practice keeping the ball stable we had to walk around stand on one foot and skip at the same time as we were keeping the ball on our bat.

Waitomo Caves

Waitomo caves!
Yesterday the middle team went to the Waitomo caves on a bus  to learn about caves with some parent helpers.

First we meet our guide she told us what we are going to do and she also explained the rules we were not allowed to touch anything .
Then we entered the caves  when we were in the cave we learnt  about stalagmites and stalactites we saw lots of glow worms to when the light was on we could see the lines that the glowworms had let down to get there food.

After that we went down some steps to get to  the river we caught our boat there were glowworms above our head  it was dark they
twinkled like stars we paddled out of the cave we had morning tea after that.

Next we went to the museum we sort of had a little play there but we were learning about how it felt like caving and crawling through little tunnels like we were caving we learnt even more about caves there.

Then we went to the classroom we learnt about how caves are formed and what caves are made of we passed around fossils stalagmites stalactites lime stones and shark teeth. Then we had lunch.

After that we went on a bush walk we walked through lots of little caves there was limestone on the ground we could even take 1 limestone home.

Did you know caves are made of lots of sea creatures.
A Glowworm light glows more when it is hungry.

The waitomo caves was fun!

Snowflake and the evil queen!
Long ago, there was a wicked queen who had a daughter called snowflake but one day the queen sent a police man to kill snowflake because everyone loved snowflake more then the queen. But the police man was a nice police and told her to go live with the other princess. Snowflake had lots of fun there but when the queen found her she was so angry she poisoned an apple but then she found out that snowflake only liked green apples the queen gave up and sent her to live with the other princess.
