Should we have a cat for a pet: An argument

Today in our class we learnt to write an argument. The topic that we chose was " Should we have a cat for a pet". Most of the students in our class did not like cats but some have cats as pets and they love their cats. Click on the videos to hear what we have to say about cats.

Wearable art

We are learning to use recycled stuff to make wearable art. Our group has used cardboard and ropes to design a dress for our model. Alica looked like an island princess in her dress.

Air occupies space

Today we went outside to blow bubbles. It was fun. I blew lots of big bubbles. They flew high up into the air. We all came back into the class with soapy hands. The reason why we blew bubbles was to find out if air occupies space. And it does. The soap swells up into a bubble because of the air that we blow into it.
