In science today we were put in groups of three and we were given two balloons, a candle and matches. First we had to blow up one of the balloons, then with the other balloon we about half filled it with water, then we blew the rest of it up with air. After that we had to lite the candle, then with the balloon we blew up we had to hold just above the candle and it popped straight away. So then we did the same with the balloon that was half filled up with water and air over the candle, some that didn’t have much water popped straight away, but with the groups that had about the right amount of water and air. First it went black at the bottom and went all hot, then it popped.

The year six science teacher wanted our class to found out the answer for What the oldest thing we will ever see is? Only one person in the grade found the answer out, that was Big Foot. Our science teacher told us the answer today. The answer was a star you can see in the autumn night sky, it is called an Arcturus.

In science this week my class had to find out why different people have different colour eyes.
Why do different people have different colour eyes? In your eye there is a thing called malenine, those who have blue eyes have little to none and those with brown eyes have much more. Babies usually have blue eyes because they haven’t developed malenine yet and sometimes after 5 months or so the eyes will turn to their true colour. Usually but not always if there was some kind of trauma to the eye at a young age it may not turn to brown and the other one will!!!!
