Market Day

For this term our school has been planning to do another market day! So our class has been choosing of what to sell for market day, we have been coming up with lots of ideas like waffles, slushies, spiders, pie face, water balloon throwing, bracelets and more. So we had a good discussion (profits, price and a lot more) about what we were going to sell for market day. Other classes will also be selling stuff.

-

Our class will be selling: spiders (fizzy drink with ice cream on top), pie face (you can play the game), waffles, sponge throwing (throw sponges at a certain person), briquettes (things you could put in your fireplace) and lollies in jar (you guess how many are in the jar and if you guess it right you get the lollies. 

In class we have been put into groups of four to plan and make posters about the certain item that we're going to be selling. For our planning we have to include the price, profit and the things that we will be needing after that we had to make our own posters, but we we're still in groups. So we could have four different posters going around. For our posters we had to include the price and a sentence to go with what your selling. 

This is my poster that I did!

Stop, Slow, Go!

WALT: Share what we explored with whanau.

Last term the school was learning about exploration. So last term we were looking at acids and bases and then experiments.

We were put into groups of three and we got to choose an any experiment to do from the four experiments to share to our parents for the celebration of learning! Our group choose the volcano one. This is the method of the experiment; Put dishwashing liqud into the cup then the food colouring and baking soda into the cup. Slowly start pouring the vinegar into the cup and then...STAND BACK!!

This was a first try we were trying to make it look like the a traffic light from the colours. But it was a fail and it ended up looking like diarrhea!! And it didn't really fizz much.

This was our group's second try it was much better than our first try and it also fizzed more and the colour was also much better and it didn't look like diarrhea..

This was my group at the celebration of learning day with all our stuff ready!

Last of all this is our group's slideshow it has all the information about the experiment, what we learnt and so on!

What I enjoyed about this was doing the experiment because even though it seems boring it was actually really fun but it was quite messy..
