Exploding sherbet


Today we had another science box! Today our science box about sweet and sour,  Koka Rozie  exclaimed(Koka Rozie is our teacher) get into groups of 3 there wasn't' enough people for 3 in each group so I had to make a group of 4 (Amber Kale'a Alice and me were a group ). Koka Rozie  gave each group the instructions and ingredients we went to a table group we read the instructions and got started first it said to to put 1/2 tsp citric acid in a paper bag then we put 1/2 tsp of flavour ,1/4 tsp of Baking soda and 1 tsp of icing sugar(X How many people are making it ) we all got a tsp of it each I thought it was going to be yum so I put the whole teaspoon in my mouth I really regretted it because at first it tasted yum but  the moment it touched my saliva it starting foaming up in my mouth and I found myself trying to hold all of it in my mouth! I ran to the tap , I swallowed all  of the foam down my throat I stuffed a whole lot of water that felt better ! I accidentally burped and all of what I just ate came out of my nose (well it felt like it ).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        

Te Tapuwae O Rongokako marine reserve


My class went to  Te Tapuwae O Rongokako marine  reserve  and I learned a lot  of things...

.that marine reserves are very important to protect marine animals.

.That Te Tapuwae O Rongokako was created as a marine reserve by the  local iwi in gisborne because there was not enough sea life and people were taking  too much


.That Te Tapuwae O Rongokako Will only be a  marine reserve for 25 years because DOC didn't decide that That Te Tapuwae O Rongokako Will  be a marine reserve so in , 5 years time there will be a decision if Doc will move the boundary or it will won't be a marine reserve  any more.
 
I saw so many marine animals crayfish, poua ,kina + lots of other marine animals and i think it is very important to keep Te Tapuwae o Rongokako  as a marine reserve  because in 5 years if we decide that Te Tapuwae o Rongokako  won't be a marine reserve then there won't be enough kai moana left in the moana .so that is  why we should keep Te Tapuwae o Rongokako as a marine reserve.
