This was Science Week. We watched a video about rain. It was about why rain is important for all living things on Planet Earth and what happens when there is too much rain and there is no rain. We then went on to discuss the strange phrase, 'it's raining cats and dogs'. We decided to create new ones with animals of our own choice.
 |
| Ella says, "It's raining snakes and fish. |
 |
| Francis' phrase is 'it's raining horses and turtles. |
Gina's phrase, it's raining penguins and turtles.
 |
| Jas says it's raining cats and dogs but the rain is red. |
 |
| Micah's phrase is 'it's raining elephants and butterflies. |
Mustafa's raining butterflies and jellyfish.
 |
| Viaan's phrase is- it's raining lions and cats |
We also looked at the different ways sound is made and how it can travel, even through walls. As a followup activity, we had to close our eyes and focus on listening to five different sounds that we could hear.

Wow Kakapo, you have really amazed me. I love all the different animals you guys used for your phrases. If I got to make up my own phrase, I would say 'it's raining wolves and foxes'. I love your drawings too. They are really colourful and fabulous. I am so stunned. You guys have thought of some amazing activities, I might ask my class to come check out your blog.
