We did a glow meet with Mr Sim and Alfiya. Alfiya is from Kazakhstan and Mr Sim is working there. We asked some questions like How cold is the weather in the winter and she put a picture of the uniforms for some schools.
This is the funny video about the weather.

On Thursday we went to see a presentation about some of the secondary pupils trip to La Reunion which is a small French island near Madagascar in the Indian Ocean. They told us about the different animals they saw they saw lots of interesting birds and interesting fish. They also let us try some of La Reunions food which was quite nice. They spoke about some of the slavery and how the slaves headed up the mountain. They showed us lots of pictures about there trip and told us about what they did.

On Monday we went to the planetarium with Mr Rose the planetarium is a giant igloo. We took off our shoes and went inside it was really dark inside we had to close our eyes for one minute and get used to the dark than when we opined our eyes then we could see the stars. First we looked at the bear in the bear star constellation we could see the Plough then Orions belt and the Seven Sisters and then we had a break.
We went back in the planetarium they were pictures on the wall. like Madusa and we got a story about her. Mr Rose told us about the other pictures on the walls.

Yesterday we made Chinese dumplings with Mrs Zhang. You make the dough with some plain flour and some warm water. You kneed the dough until soft. Next get 2 cabbage leaves and roll them up then chop until fine. Cut up the onion into slices. Next squeeze out all the cabbage juice into a bowl then add the onion. Add a dash of salt, soy sauce and sesame oil. Mix up the vegetables and snap the dough into little pieces. Roll out the dough and put some filling in the middle. Pinch together the dough and put them into a pan of boiling water for 10 minutes. Take them out and they are really yummy!

These past few weeks we have been learning Mandarin Chinese with Mrs. Zhang. As well as learning Mandarin Chinese we have been learning about China. 2 weeks ago we made Chinese Zodiacs……………Zodiacs are a Chinese way of telling how old you are and telling what time it is. Last week we made Chinese lanterns but we didn’t put lights in them because we just made them out of paper. On the top of the lanterns we wrote in Mandarin Chinese, it translated to Happy New Year. Yesterday we learned about Chinese New Year. We saw lots of AMAZING! pictures of Chinese lanterns and a great video of a dragon. Also yesterday we made Chinese dumplings.
Some Chinese Words:
Ni Hao/Hello
Zai Jian/Bye
Xie Xie/Thank you

Chinese New Year starts on the 8th of February but we learned about Chinese New Year on the 9th of February with Mrs Zhang. There is a dragon called Nian which means year. We made a Chinese zodiac. A Chinese zodiac is a circle divided in twelve sections. There is an animal in every section. On the Chinese zodiac this year is the monkey year.On Chinese new year Chinese people hang up their lanterns and then they admire the lanterns.
