Science testing

Yesterday Mr Wallace came in and taught us how to find out if a liquid is an acid, alkali or neither. To find out we added cabbage juice. If it was an acid it would turn pink, if it was an alkali it would turn green and if it was neither nothing would happen.

These Are The Products That We Tested.

1. Vinegar - acid
2. Baking Soda - alkali
3. Lemonade - neither
4. Meths - neither
5. Washing Powder - alkali
6. Citric Acid - Acid

17/9/09

Today Mr English was away . We had Mr Severinsen and we played this interactive fiction game called ZORK 1 and it was really fun. For P.E we were doing sprints but it rained so we played man-hunt with room 22. After a while room 24 came in and they joined us.
Yesterday we had long jump with Miss Tucker and we practised our run up mostly, we also have it again on Monday.

Size 12 Is Not Fat - Book Review

Size 12 Is Not Fat By Meg Cabot

Heather Wells is an ex-pop singer but when her mum runs away with all her money she quits and is now working in a dorm. Some of the children like to elevator surf - going on top of elevators and jumping onto the top of a different elevator. Two girls die from it in two weeks and Heather is suspicious that they didn't die of elevator surfing but they were murdered. As the clues start to add up she isn't worrying about the next pay or meal but instead her life.

This book hasn't been made into a movie but there are lots more books by Meg Cabot.

I thought that this was a really cool and interesting book.

How To Write A Good Blog Post

We are learning to write a blog post and add elements such as hyperlinks and images.

Today I learnt that it is better to write shorter posts then long ones so that people don't lose interest. I also learnt how to add pictures to my blog posts.

Here are some more tips on How To Make A Good Blog.
