Cross-Country Races

My house colour is red. I got changed into my house colours. Next we went to find my number. Then we sat down, then other people stood up to go running. Finally made it back, my legs were sore. Then we went to clean the mud off our legs. After that we had to go back to class.

Making Butter

Guess what Room 11 made? It is yellow and looks like cheese and you put it on bread. It is butter! We are The Chipmunks, we are a group in Room 11 and that's what we did. What we needed was the ingredients and then we made made it outside in the bay. When we went outside, we had to start making butter. So we can put it on bread. It took us a long time to shake it. We had to count to 20. When it was ready to go on bread, we ate it.

Making Homemade Butter

What is yellow like cheese and it's the colour of the Sun? Butter! The Chipmunks (table group) made butter and went into the bay. We shook and shook it until it leaked. It looked like cheese and when we opened it, it looked like egg. Yum! Yum! Yum! Wow! It tasted nice. "Ew," said Raeleen, "It tastes yuck!' My stomach was rumbling and I felt hungry. Then we finally ate and it was yummy. We ate fresh bread with butter. It tasted like creamy ice-cream. It was delicious

Bubbles

We blew bubbles. We got in groups. The bubbles were shiny. Then I blew some big bubbles. The bubbles dripped on my arm and into my shirt. The bubble was sparkling. The bubbles were shaped like a sphere. We blew some bubbles outside Room 11's bay. The bubbles were fantastic. Sarona's one looked like a sausage and Lukis blew one and it looked like a sausage too. The bubbles were soapy. Iisa had some soap on his hair. My group put soap on the floor and did the moon walk. Some peoples bubbles went over the school. It was a lot of fun.
