Shawn, Priyasha and Akansha decided to do a video podcast this week. What did they do well? How could they improve?
We are Team 17, a Year 6 class at Bailey Road School in Mt Wellington, Auckland, New Zealand. Our teacher is Mr. Wood and we want to share our learning with our whānau (family) and other learners. We hope you will enjoy our blog and leave us comments.

Vinegar Volcanoes
Vinegar Volcanoes
The Blog Dogs have done a volcano experiment like the one we read about in School Journal P2N2 2002, "Make a Volcano" by Jan Trafford this week. In small groups Team 17 compared them, and made 'Same / Different' T-charts of the two methods?
The group members choose roles of 'Narrator - Recorder - Actor - Supervisor' before planning their ingredients and method. Once they had set-up and practiced, ready were to record. The teamwork and cooperation in the groups was amazing.

Volcano experiment
Hi my name is Nicholas and we did an a experiment. In my group was Kiu, Sam and Isaiah.
first we got a bottle and painted it to make it look like a real volcano.
Secondly we put half a cup of baking soda and a few drops of food colouring. We got a camera and filmed Sam pour the vinegar, when he poured it in the volcano exploded and went everywhere.

***The Best Volcano Experiment Ever***
Our group had Shawn, Henrica, Mapili and Sharnika. We were doing a volcano explosion experiment. What we were trying to do is making a volcano explode using chemical reactions.
A bit of baking soda
1/4 of a glass cup of vinegar
1/2 of warm water
3 drops of red food colouring
and scrapings from crayons.
We took a video and 2 photos on our experiment. We had to do an re-actment since we didn't press the record button long enough. But this time we had more explosion.
Our ingredients were:
