it involved on Thursday writing about a mission to mars and you have to take 6 things and every one picked different things and every thing was with a different purpose to do something.
the one thing we were scratching our heads with if you pick a picnic you havbe to take your helmet of to eat and you would die.

Today we had to hand in our technology challenge and it was amazing! Loads of people took part and in the end quite a few people actually won. Liam Todd made one about metal and it could crush the can no bother. My favourite one was the one Freddie made because it used a simple design and it was easy to crush.

Today on Newsround:
2 famous athletes who are famous for running where bullied when they where young because of there special talent for sports! The people that bullied them where probably just jealous of them for being so good!
Of course when you think sink hole you think of a giant hole in the ground but you don’t normally happen to think of the whole ROAD collapsing in! That’s right! The whole road collapsed in and everyone was shocked.
2 people who had just come back from a sunny day on the beach happened to go back to their hotel room and where surprised to find a Monitor Lizard in there bathroom. They lured it out with a piece of raw meat and just before it went out the door left a thank-you-for-letting-me-use-the-bathroom-in-your-kitchens surprised. Yes you saw right it did the toilet right there in the middle of the kitchen!
You might have watched the X-factor over the weekend and found out a new contestant and her name is Honey G! Lots of people said that acts where much better than her rapping and we watched and I have got to say… IT WAS TRUE!
in New Zealand people where told to flee the country because of an earthquake. The earthquake happened to bring a friend a long… A TSUNAMI! The Tsunami wrecked lots of things but so did the earthquake they cant come back any time soon though because the after- shock WILL be coming!
You might find it weird if you went to a beach and found lots of snowballs. It is caused by the wind blowing cold air and then blowing the warm air away.
That’s all for today!

In Japan there was a little sink hole that grew bigger and bigger before swallowed the road. It was 30 meters across and ruined the water pipes
