Unexpected Pet!!!

Last year for Christmas (2019), I got 2 pet Fish and a Snail so He could eat some of the algae. I got a Black Moor and just a plain Goldfish, the snail I got had the shape of a garden snail. The next year (2020) My snail died in the month of January, very sad but strange! My question was How did He die?
No one in my family is snail experts so we just called him a boy. His name was Sampson. But a while after he died My Black Moor Died in February from bladder disorder infection😢. One month Later My poor Goldfish Rocky is still alone at least we thought he was. It was just the normal morning and I got up to feed him fish flakes. After I fed him I was watching him eat when I saw a black dot at the top of the fish tank at first I didn't worry about it but then I went and told my sister and she said it was probably fish poo but I know the fish poo isn't that big. So I went and got Mum and asked her if snails lay eggs. She didn't think so, so I asked her to come and look at the black dot. It had like a swirly cone shape at the end. Then we thought about it after we looked at the  swirl and I said "Sampson Must have been a girl!!! It turns out she was a girl after all. I searched up online "how many eggs can snails lay" and it said hundreds. So Rocky was actually spending a minute or to under the rock sometimes which he doesn't normally do. So I decided that he must have been eating the eggs. Now I know the answer to my question How did she die? because she laid eggs Did you know that snails could lay eggs?

Science Roadshow

This week the year 5 and 6's went to a Science Roadshow at Hokitika Primary.  There was other schools there and they did two shows for each school. They did 1 experiment for each show. In the 1st show they  put a cider in the milk. It made the milk go all funny and turn it into curds and whey. Then after they showed us the experiment we got to have a look around. There was weird stuff and games and puzzles. One of the weird  things was a horses heart and two other hearts but I didn't know what animals they were from. There were other things and one of them was a wind tunnel and you had to wear safety glasses and earmuffs. Next to it was this really cool orb that had a glowing light and if you touched it would make the light brighter and one of the strings would follow your finger. There were cards and you had to figure out how the things on the card worked and you would have to tell someone how it worked. Have you ever  been to the Science roadshow before?

Fact or Opinion / Coast to Coast




This week with Mrs Mineham we were doing fact or opinion on the Coast to Coast.  A fact is something that is true.  You can usually verify that a fact is true.  An opinion is what someone may think.  For example,  "I think the Coast to Coast is a waste of time."  is an opinion.   The image above is all of the facts and opinions that I found. Have you heard of the Coast to Coast before?
