Book

Hello welcome back to my blog today I am going to talk about the class book we read last term. We read a book about named holes. The book was about a kid named Stanley yelnats that was always at the wrong place at the wrong time. Stanley yelnats then ended up  going to this place called camp green lake where all you do is dig holes. They then end up just digging holes until he is a good boy then Stanley yelnats get released. My favourite character was Stanley yelnats because he was the only character apart from the guard. I did not enjoy the book because it was 70 chapters long of just talking about digging holes. Stanley yelnats in the book and in the movie dont like it and they both dig holes. I did not like the movie as well because it was the same as the book and 2 hours of digging holes. I would recommend the book to anyone that likes to read. 

Thanks for looking at my blog.

Term 2 Reflection

Hello welcome back to my blog today I am going to talk about lats term/term 2. My best part of term 2 was PE playing games/sports. another good part was doing sports. I also enjoyed art and wood tech a bit. my least favourite part was the hurumanu's because we had to do a lot of work. I showed resilience in PE  by trying in the sports like netball, volleyball, hockey and football. I did art, PE, wood teach and hurumanu's. My challenge for this term is to not get refereed or a detention.                                                                                                                                                                            Thank you for looking at my blog.

Why did the bubbles come up?

As the Mentos candy sinks in the bottle, the candy causes the production of more and more carbon dioxide bubbles, and the rising bubbles react with carbon dioxide that is still dissolved in the soda to cause more carbon dioxide to be freed and create even more bubbles, resulting in the eruption.
