Tree Planting

This  week  we  planted  three  new  kowhai  trees  in  our  school.

Jack  was  chosen  to  help.  Ka  pai  Jack!!!

We  were  sitting  down  listening  to  Mathew  say  a  Maori  welcome  and  blessing.

 

Then we  carried  the  tree  into  the  hole.

                           
                           

Lastly  we  covered  the  roots  in  the  hole  with  dirt.

I  used  the  shovel  to  carry  the  dirt.

Great  planting  Jack!

Solid, liquid or gas

We  made  lime  jelly.  First  it  was  a  solid.  

It  changed  into  a  liquid  when  we  poured  some  hot  water  into  the  bowl.

Then  it  changed  into  a  solid  in  the  fridge.

It  was  yummy  to  eat!
