Science Experience
On Friday, the last day of Term 3, Andrew Carswell came to Team 20 to do some science experiments with us. They were all about energy.
Andrew had a machine that made electricity from a belt moving around. Some people put their hands on the silver ball and the electricity went through your hand, up your arms and out your head into your hair. It made your stick up. You had to stand on polystyrene so the electricity didn't go down to the floor. When you let go and stepped off the polystyrene your hair went back down again.
Team 20 was filled with clouds, it was like we were standing on clouds. He had dried ice which he told us was twice as cold as Antartica, Jasmine poured very hot water from a kettle into the dried ice and the room filled with clouds.
Outside Andrew put purple potassium permangenate crystals in a special bowl. He added oil on. It caught fire and sucked all the energy out of the oil. It might of heated to 2000 degrees.
Andrew had some chemicals and by adding different chemicals together he made amazing colours. There was yellow, red, blue, purple, organge and green. He made a potion that looked like blood. He told us they make blood like that for the movies.
We thought it was so awesome and exciting. Thanks Andrew, we can't wait until you come bakc in Term 4 to teach us about rockets.
Science Rocks!

Holiday Highlight Writing
This is our first piece of writing for the year. The guide was to use the yellow thinking hat to recall their favourite holiday activity.
This is the edited version of the first draft.
It's purpose was to refresh their thinking of the writing process; thinking, planning, writing and checking.
Here are Team20's thoughts about the hiolidays.
The best thing in the holidays was seeing my cousins. Their names were Cam and ZeeZee. It was fun playing with them. My Aunty came over from England. She came with us to Torbay.
By Isabella
The best thing about the holidays was going on the boat with our friends. Sophie and me went for a biscuit ride behind the boat.
By Charlotte
When I went to Treasure Island I got the treasure. Inside there was a ring and some skittles, pirate hats, lollipops and marshmallows and freddo frogs. I didn’t get sick because pirates share.
By Flynn
I saw Eden and Cass with Lily and Emily. We saw Eliza. We went to my home and we played on the tramp.
By Abby
I went to the best camp at Treasure Island. We went to have some fun. The next time we went we got treasure. My favourite was the skittles.
By Jack
The best thing was when I went to swimming at Aqua-gym. I am in the blue team. We do arm circles and a ball float. We also breathe on the side and we do caterpillars to the end of the pool. I like Aqua-gym. They have snake lollies there. Aqua-gym is fun.
By Clara
I went to Diamond Harbour with Anna, Chris and Georgia. We went to a café.
