Hearts and Kidneys.

This week we had Mrs. B bring in some organs for us to observe.
She brought real animal hearts and kidneys.This relates to our recent visit to Life Ed.It was very interesting and I must say it did smell nice when they were cooking.Here is some writing inspired by yesterdays experience.


Here is a photo of my group.

Skittles.

Hi.
Earlier this week we did an experiment.We wanted to make patterns and different colors by pouring water on skittles.We had to use our senses to describe what we saw using adjectives and other writing jems to make our writing better.I wrote a short recount, I used all my senses.
Here's my Recount:

Skittles


Fading colours blend together like a smoothie.Silence struck the room when the skittle bag shook, the shake of the bag sounded like a rattlesnake shaking its tail.An aroma of sour lime and sweet strawberry flew up my nose.I sniffed the air, it made my mouth water.The tempting taste of the skittles were heavenly.The crunch, the flavour and the smooth edges of the skittle rub gently against the side of your mouth.
