'Visiting' South Africa ???

Today we have begun coutry study we had a list of counrties to chose from such as: Australia, Canada, Chile, England (United Kingdom), Germany, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, South Africa & United Arab Emirates. I chose to do South Africa for a few reasons.

a) I am South African but I would like to know more about South Africa and dive deeper into the culture and history of South Africa.

b) A lot of people underestimate South Africa and think that there isn'tmuch there but it is actually very lively and full of different wonder.

I cant wait to share my discoveries on my blog as I continue my learning and research.

The Flag

Over the past two days we have been doing the flag experiment. we could only use :

1 meter ruler

1 meter of tape

5 meters of paper

5 meters of string

That may sound like a lot but when we put it all together it was a small amount. I was stressful we had one succsessfull attempt but shortly after it collapsed.

You could try this and blog about how it turned out !

Tin foil boat experiment

Today we did the experiment of tin foil boats. So we had to create one and see how long it could float without sinking whilst we put individual glass marbles into them. The highest count of the day was 76 our group came second with 47.
