Thanks Duffy!

 WALT: show gratitud.

Dear duffy,

Thank you for my two new books, Gamora and Nebula and a web of air. I am really happy to have some more books to read and these look really interesting. I had run out of books to read so perfect timing. I can´t wait to get home and read read read.

Thanks again,

From Scarlett

Eco trip

 WALT: write a report on a school event.

On Friday the year five and six students got to go on a trip to the Bromley rubbish centre to learn about recycling and compost and no it did not smell bad like everyone thinks. At first we learned about the perfect compost recipe.

Brown  (eg. leafs, hay.)

water

green (grass,weeds,food scrapes)

Microbes (dirt)

Air (poke some wholes in the compost)

warmth (blanket on top, sun)

That order is the perfect recipe to hot compost. We got to make some compost using that recipe and it will take up to a year to break down. 



Next we learned about worms and worm bins and how to make bedding for them. Worm bedding is newspaper dipped in water and squeezed out, when you have done that you lay it on top of all the dirt and stuff in the worm bin. The worms eat and sleep in it, which when you think about it is pretty weird.

After we did all the stuff with the worms we learned about how to recycle properly and about which kind of plastics can go in the recycling and which can not.


It was super fun and improved our knowledge about looking after the environment.


The Dumb Ducks

 WALT: add speech bubbles.

Today we had a photo of lots of ducks and we had to add speech bubbles to them to make them seem like they were talking. I really enjoyed this because I could make them say whatever I wanted.

Here are my dumb ducks
