The Learning Pit

 Last week we had to make balloon powered cars and Impossible Papers. Most of us were struggling and eventually falling in to the Learning Pit. What is the Learning Pit you ask? The Learning Pit is where we think and think and think. When we get out of the Learning Pit, We get that Eureka moment, Which means "I found it!" in greek.
You realise how hard it is and you get more and more frustrated, Then you find your way back up, and out of the learning pit. Eureka!

Holidays

In the holidays, I went to the Gold Coast in Australia with Emma. We went to all the theme parks, which were really fun. First we went to Sea World, And we saw some dolphins. Then a seagull flew by and tried to eat the fish out of the dolphin feeder's bag. We also got our photos taken with the dolphins, we were patting them. A few days later we went to Wet N' Wild and went on nearly all the slides. There was a wave pool as well which was really fun too. Then Emma went back to NZ so I went with my mum to movie world. We met Bat Man, The Joker, Harley Quinn, Marilyn Munroe, Dorothy from the wizard of oz, And the Looney Tunes.
