CSO

Four members of the CSO came to our school and showed us their instruments. We listened to their tunes. A few of us got to try their instruments.                              

These are the names of the instruments that they had.

• Harp
• Violin
• Viola
• Flute
• Piccolo

Liquid Nitrogen

That is the liquid nitrogen.

What's the matter: Mr lynch was showing us liquid nitrogen. 

It is a very cold liquid, boiling and evaporating at -197 degrees. 

He put some resources into the liquid nitrogen  like a banana, a balloon, a flower, some fire, some lead,  and a film contanister with liquid nitrogen.  

This is what happened: The banana froze, the balloon deflated, the flower shattered, the fire went out, the film canister exploded.

Can you think why?

Rain Poem

The Rain
Water is a fountain in gardens.
Night sounds like rampaging thunder on roofs.
The sky is terrified  of rain.

But... The storm is still to come.
