	This term we were doing science. My favorite experiment is the skittles colors merged with the water. My least favorite experiment is the filtration because I’ve already done this at my old school so it was just the same. Me and Josh, we were doing skittles and I listened to his ideas. One of the science experiments that I did not like is scones. It felt like I was at home helping my mum with baking, it was boring but we made scones that had lemonade in it and no baking soda. But my group scones where go so we didn't get any but one of my friends at another table let my group have some of theirs.				- - -



Students Comment			Teachers Comment I have enjoyed having you in science this term. Next time it would be great if you could show commitment to posting your blogs on time. Sincerely, Mr. Power
