Potato activity on digestive system {chronological}

POTATO ACTIVITY
First, we took a straw and took a piece of grated potato and tried to take the grated potato out of the other end. Next, we put pieces of potatoes in a bowl and filled it half way with water. Then, we put the lid of the bowl and started shaking the bowl after some time a bit of froth started getting collected on the top of the bowl. After that, we took pieces of grated potato and again filled it half way with water. Next, we shook the bowl again and this time we saw that there was more froth collected on the top, it was also dissolved. Then, we took a big strainer and strained all the water from the bowl into a glass. After that, we took a small strainer and strained out the remaining juice.
From observing this activity I understood that this was how our digestive system worked. The potato was our food. The straw was our food pipe. The big pieces the not properly chewed food. The grated pieces properly chewed food. The big strainer the small intestine and the small strainer the large intestine.

Chronological writing of respiratory system


  RESPIRATORY SYSTEM

We need to breathe to live. The system that helps us breathe is called the Respiratory system. So, let us know how our respiratory system works.

First, the air goes into your nose and enters your lungs through a pipe called wind pipe or trachea. Next, it goes into 2 pipes called the bronchi. Then, from the bronchi it goes to even smaller tubes called the bronchioles that are inside your lungs. After that, the bronchioles pass the air to the alveoli which take only the oxygen from the air. Finally, the alveoli pass the oxygen to the capillaries, which give the oxygen to the whole body through your blood.

Chronology on holidays


THE FIRST DAY OF MY HOLIDAYS 
I really enjoyed my holidays. Actually, all I did in my holidays was swim, read some books, play computer games and do a fun exercise course in the club. I had a lot of fun.

My first day of holidays was a bit like this: I woke up at 10:00 a.m. and had a delicious breakfast of bread, sausage and bacon (My holiday special !). Then, I did some jumping around the whole house listening to music. After that, I went to see how the construction in my new room was going. Our old kitchen was going to be my room. I then played Computer Games in my laptop for an hour. I started eating my lunch at 1:30 p.m. gradually, enjoying every bit of it till 2:15 p.m. I was so tired that I eventually fell asleep reading Mark Twain’s Tom Sawyer on the bed in the AC room.

I woke up at 4:30p.m.Afterwards, I went to my father’s room and he asked me to join an agility course in the club. He explained everything I’ll be doing and even told me that it was games day that day. So, I agreed to join the course at 5:00 p.m. from that day onwards. Then, I reached the club and I got big surprise. My friend Sonal was there too. Gradually, the fun began increasing in the game. The class was for 1 hour. Then after the class I and Sonal went for swimming together. We were enjoying so much that we didn’t even have a count of the time and played for one and a half hours. Next me and my friend went to the food court and had some junk and went to our homes.

Fudge A Mania - Judy Blume

Name of the book: Fudge - A - Mania

Name of the Author: Judy Blume

Genre: All

Review:

Hi! I am Peter Hatcher and I am 10. I have a 1- 1/2 year old baby sister called Toothsie. I also have a really annoying 5 year old brother called Fudge. His actual name is Farley, But he is ready to kill anyone who calls him Farley. " Stop BARKING Turtle! ". Oh I almost forgot Turtle is my dog.


The story Fudge - A - Mania is a story about Fudge and our 3 week visit to Maine, a beach with our whole family. It all starts with Fudge telling me : I'm getting married!
Me : So, whose the lucky bride?
Fudge: Shiela Tubman!
And then I acted as if I fainted, because we are going to Maine for three weeks and living with Shiela Tubman, who is even more irritating and annoying than Fudge.

In order to tolerate 3 weeks with Shiela I called my friend Jimmy Fargo to come to Maine with us.

So, guess what happenned? Who got married in the end?

My GRANDMA and Shiela's GRANDPA!!

Here's a poem on the book:

Going to Maine, living with the Tubmans,
Equivalant to living with non-humans.

Shiela and Fudge make a bad combination,
The 2 most annoying people in the whole nation.

The vacation didn't go as bad as I thought,
Add to it, my grandma and Shiela's grandpa tied the knot.

Suitcase Kid - Jacqueline Wilson

The suitcase kid is all about a 10 year old girl called Andrea, who is very sad because her parents split up.

Both her parents want her to stay with them. She cooperates a lot but they keep fighting. Finally they go to the family counsellor for help and advice. They then decide that Andrea would stay at her mother's place for one week and at her father's for the next week and so on.

NOW!! Now begins the fun!!

Both her parents have their own partners and their own children. Andrea calls her mother's new husband 'The Big Hairy Baboon '. They has 3 children who are Paula, Ghrahm and the naughtiest and most annoying KATIE!. Her father's new wife Carrie has 2 children who are Crystal and Zen. They also get a new baby in the end who is called Zoe ( Zoey ).

Andrea gets in a lot of fights with kids, especially with Katie and gets badly scolded. All the scolding is made worse by Katie's snickers and smirks.

Over a period of time Andrea starts to get along with everybody.

Its an emotional book with a touch of humour. I hope this never happens, but if at all you meet someone going through parents split up then do suggest this book. It would be helpful.

POEM ON ENERGY

Travel, entertainment, cooking and many more;
All require energy galore.
Sources of energy are many my friends;
Selection of the ones renewable is what makes sense.

Crackling coal,gushing oil splitting uranium;
Most commonly used, they don't last long and form in a millemiun.

Trickling water down the stream;
OH! Looks like a wonderful dream.
Whistling air, moving with a flair;
Plant and animal waste, giving gases bare.
Burning sun and heat of the earth;
Reminder of clean power without dearth.

Let us work towards using renewable over non - renewable energy;
Let us take a pledge to conserve energy.
