Today on the Newsround website there was lots of cool things to be see:
The I’m a very happy Chewbacca video was really funny. It was a lady in a Chewbacca mask saying I’m a very happy Chewbacca and laughing really loudly. It has loads of likes on Facebook and over international websites.
There was also a Chinese kid who wrecked a hard-to-build model made of Lego. It was a Nick Wild one from the new film that has been out in cinemas Zootropolise.
There was also a world record for the worlds biggest mushroom ever found it was huge and really heavy. People say it was big enough to feed one whole family for one hole week!
Then the final thing a man who is a gymnast he beat a world record and took all his medals into the Newsround studio.

My favourite was a nice picture of a farm house and we where a loud to draw our favourite picture it was also Thomas’s favourite so we drew them. Our next stop was to Moat Brae which we had to draw a picture of which was fun because we had to draw the architectuol details of it was one of my favourite stops. Then we had our lunch outside the white sands public toilets I picked up lots of leaflets and when I got home I counted and I had 14!! then we went to the old bridge museum we got to look and draw lots of stuff from inside it after that we had to go home because it was home time and we didn’t want to spend an extra hour at school.

On Tuesday the 3rd of May we went to The Buddhist temple in Eskdalemuir because we have been learning about that religion. Our tour guide was a man called Peter who is a Buddhist himself. He taught us how to meditate in the meditation room and after lunch we watched and listened to some chanting. The temple is huge and really colourful these are what the colours symbolise:
Blue-Sky
Red-Fire
Yellow-Earth
Green-Water
There was also black and gold and there was another symbol that meant space but we don’t know what that colour is.

Today Glasgow Science Centre came to our school!!! They came to do a programme called get active. First we started by learning about the heart and lungs, we did an experiment by getting Keira to try and get 5 balls lit up at the same time it was really hard because they only lit up for 20 seconds . Then we did a second experiment for our muscles which involved all the experiment to explode it slithered like a snake down the side of the bottle. Then we did another experiment to test the focus of our brains. Me and Dylan had to go up as volunteers, Dylan was playing basketball and I was the net he had to throw soft balls at me and try and hit my head with them I had to try and get them on my head then the hat I had to wear got stuck in my hair ” this made me very embarrassed” # Kaylan . # Miss Dale carnage: Miss dale got an electric shock in one of the experiments.
