Our Bio Gas Experiment

On Monday we began our experiment about bio gas.  We dropped 30 peas that had soaked in water, in a plastic bag. Next we put these peas in the sun. We're wondering:                           Anneliese: What will the peas look like after a week?   Mekaela: What will the bag look like after a week?Gabi: Will the peas rot and why?        Dominic: Will the bag dehydrate?                  James:  Does it matter whether the bags are in the sun or shade?                                                  James and Lucas have put their bags in the cupboard to get shade.   The other bags are in the full sun.

Tuesday: Zavier noticed condensation inside the bags.

Wednesday: Hoani observed that some of the peas are splitting and sprouting.

Pentencost

What happened ?: The disciples were all together in a room feeling very confused. There was a big gust of wind in the room and fire appeared on their heads.  The disciples suddenly started speaking different languages from about nine different countries. 

Who was there? The Holy Spirit Jesus' followers and friends.

Why did it happen? Jesus had ascended into Heaven and God sent the Holy Spirit to give the disciples strength and courage to spread the good news so others could believe in Him.

When did it happen? At Pentencost after Jesus had ascended into Heaven.

Where did it happen? In Jerusalem up stairs in a house.

Painting about our Fairy Tale The Bee-Man of Orn

First we read the story about the Bee-Man.  Next we studied the amazing pictures in the book.  Then we watched the DVD about the illustrator P.J.Lynch.  He showed us how to make an illustration from the first idea to the final picture.  After that we followed our own process with our pictures.  Step 1 we sketched using a pencil. Step 2 we dyed the background using a light yellow.  Step 3 we used the primary colours to mix our colours and paint our pictures from the lightest colours to the darkest colours like P.J. Lynch showed us.

The 5 ws thinking tool.

What happened ?: The Bee-man saved the baby from the dragon. Fletcher.

Who was there ?: The Bee-Man, the baby, the Tiny Imp, the junior Sorcerer, the languid youth, the Lord of the Domain, the dragon, the village people, the master sorcerer, the babies mother.

Why did it happen?: It happened because the Bee-Man wanted to know what he was? Jordan.

When did it happen? It happened really long ago because the pictures were old fashioned.  Anneliese.

Where did it happen? The setting of the story was in the Bee-man's village and a gloomy cave.
