Today we made sherbet for science and my group was Bella, Joey, Max, Peter and ME. First we had to taste all of the ingredients first we tasted icing sugar it was very sweet. Then we tasted Baking soda it was very bitter. After the very bitter baking soda we tasted citric acid it was very painful there was only one ingredient left and it was drum roll tactic acid it was more painful then the citric acid. When the whole class tasted all of the ingredients we made sherbet our first type of sherbet was very sour because of all the tantric acid and the citric acid. We tried 10 times to get the right type of sherbet so we added one of more tsp of powder sugar then we added all our bad sherbet it became our best one yet.
My favourite part about making sherbet was tasting all the ingredients.

Spud Gun
Today and last Friday we did a science experiment on Potato spud guns the first time we did the experiment it didn't work. This Friday some of my group shot there potato into the air and it worked for them it did not work for me because when I was going to shoot I put the sharp end when my teacher clearly told my whole class to put the blunt end in first. I tired shooting the potato six times but my teacher also told my group it alright because most of the science experiments we do wont work and its also a learning experience.

Science
Today for science we did a topic around birds to see which Forceps would be the best for picking up the gummy worms, paper and skittles. We only got to eat one skittle and gummy worm but the the worm was cut up into little pieces. So then we had to make a prediction on which Forceps would be good to pick up the skittle , paper and the gummy worm other groups had much different prediction than my group of six. At the end my group split up the gummy worms and the skittles to eat.
