In class on Friday we did the most fun project we had done all week! We had came into the classroom from art to see a clear cup with a scoop of ice cream in the see-through cup. We sat down in our seats and we saw a pixie cup on our desk too, so we all looked in to see root beer! We all were very surprised (except for David he had been told about it.) If you did not know root beer and ice cream make a root beer float. A solid and a liquid make a gas. On the count of three we all poured the root beer into the ice cream. We ate the ice cream with a spoon most people drank the liquid part with the spoon, but I just drank from the clear cup. This science experiment was very fun and tasty! Bye!

We learned about European explorers and I chose to talk about Juan Ponce De Leon. He landed in St. Augustine, Florida. He was trying to find riches or land for Spain. Juan Ponce De Leon was looking for a mystical land because he believed that in the”very mystical land” lay the “Fountain Of Youth” now of course this was more of a myth than mystical. (Ha) Juan Ponce De Leon’s sponser was Spain. Ponce De Leon was the first European to land in Florida mainly St. Augustine. He claimed land for Spain only. There were three more explorers we learned about they were, Christopher Columbus, Christopher Newport, and Jaques Cartier. But I liked Juan Ponce De Leon. I hope you learned a bit more about this European explorer, Bye!
