Ottawa, Canada

Hey guys, how’s your holiday? For me, my holiday is awesome. Today is my last day at Ottawa, the capitol of Canada. During this trip, I went to many, many places. I have tons of photos and memories.
During these 18 days at Canada, I also went to Toronto, the capitol of the province Ontario and I have been to Quebec province and city.
At Ottawa, some popular places I went to are: Calypso water park, Centre Block, Rideau hall and many more.
I’m staying at my cousins place. I came to Ottawa because my family decided to pay a visit to my cousins. They live here because their father is a diplomat, and he has to work in many countries. My cousins came here 2 years ago, and they will go back to Thailand in 1-2 more years.

At Quebec, the main highlight was when I went to St. Anne canyon. A canyon is like a series of rocky waterfalls. It’s really big and pretty hard to describe!

I also went to Niagara falls (the east side). That is the reason why I went to Toronto-Toronto isn’t far from the falls. I was extremely honored to see the falls at a very young age. It was a beautiful experience. I went on a boat ‘The maid of the mist’ which takes you close to the falls, and getting a touch of the water crashing down. It was beautiful.

Here are some images of places at Ottawa:

I have loads more photos but I will upload them on Flickr when I have a lot of free time. Everyone share your stories about your Holiday!

Fun Science-Charlie McDonnell

There is a Youtuber called Charlie McDonnell-or better known as his Youtube Username ‘Charlieissocoollike’. Charlie posts videos about some different things and things he thinks about. However there are 2 videos on science that he has made.
It is in the ‘Fun Science’ series. The 2 videos are called ‘Fun Science-The moon’ and ‘Fun Science-Light’. I thought about it and the video about light can help us develop an understanding.
In this video Charlie mainly talks about the ‘Doppler effect’ which is the change of sound by distance, and the change of light when moving. This may give you some information, and it can help a bit with our unit on science. I hope you enjoy the video!

Am and Julien-Exhibition Topics updated

We are continuing on our task of asking people about their choices of topics for the upcoming Exhibition. We used the same question of ‘if the Exhibition was tomorrow, what topic would you choose?’ but this time we added a sentence before saying a question and it is ‘remember last time we asked you about your exhibition topic? Well we are updating so did you change your mind of stay the same?’
This time most people took slightly longer to think and we reminded them of their old topic, so they got the question quickly after a reminder.
The results were…

Jin, Anirudh, Yea-chan-pollution

Hi 6SS! I miss you all so much.
Firstly I have to apologize about not contactin you guys AT ALL. It’s because I was living in a flat (my mum’s auntie’s flat) and there was no internet so I was really fustrated. I wrote where I went to for all the days. I’m really tired now-I just came back home about an hour ago.
The photos in the slideshow are the photos i took through my iTouch and there are more photos in other cameras but I’ll upload them later. The main places I went to were the Stonhenge and Legoland. Unfortunately I wasn’t allowed to take my iTouch to anywhere outside the flat so these are just photos from the airport and all.
I had an amazing time though I was really worried about school. If you guys would please tell me a bit about the work you guys did! Thank you very much!
Also if you want to know where I took some of the photos please ask me by making a comment. Thanks,

Am

We talked about what we saw, thought and wondered. We talked about the photo (below). First we talked about what we saw, then what we thought and finally what we wondered about. This is what we saw…

1.  A man wearing a suit covered with mud.
2.  The man holding a knife in a muddy river
3.  The man is getting dirty.
4.  The man is cutting the hay.

This is what we thought…

1.  The man is cleaning the river.
2.   The man is wearing a suit made out of plastic bags.
3.    He is doing a job.

This is what we wondered…

1.  Is he holding a knife?
2. Is  he earning enough money?
3.  What is his nationality?
4.  What is he is doing?
