Anzac biscuits
An Anzac biscuit is a sweet biscuit popular in Australia and New Zealand, made using rolled oats, flour, desiccated coconut, sugar, butter, golden syrup, baking soda and boiling water. Anzac biscuits have long been associated with the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps ANZAC established in I. It has been claimed the biscuits were sent by wives to soldiers abroad because the ingredients do not spoil easily and the biscuits kept well during naval transportation. Today, Anzac biscuits are manufactured commercially for retail sale. Biscuits issued to soldiers by the Army, referred to as "Anzac tiles" or "Anzac wafers", differ from the popular Anzac biscuit. Anzac tiles and wafers were hard tack, a bread substitute, which had a long shelf life and was very hard.

Melania's recycled dress!
This week we were looking at how do penguins keep warm. On Tuesday there was a visitor in the school called Fuzzy. He told us about how to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.
But in this blogpost we are talking about Melania's very nice dress. So the dress was made by Melania's mom using paper and bubble wrap. Maja and Amani like this dress very much!!
On Esi week, we had met 2 visitors who told us about our enviroment. One from HP and the other called Mr Fuzzy. Mr Fuzzy told us about the illetration we make and how it effects albatrosas life. He also showed us a video about this lady who care so much about the enviroment and she was also picking up illeteration on the beach. She also found stuff in the beach like: Lighter, Toothbrushes and toothpicks and plastic toys that we throw away.The lady from HP told us that HP makes their products from recycled plastic and paper and they recycle their ink catridges. And also told us that she would give prizes to those who make the best poster. The prize is a free laptop and a printer for the school. she will also give away tickets to the Masdah city. Finally all the students will have to wear eco friendly costumes for the parade.

ESI week in Year 5
This picture show how much work we had put on our recycled clothes.This week it was ESI week, we had alot of fun. We had a maths investigation which was a bit hard. Than we got a question from Ms Vig who was in Antartica, the question was which was warmer a seal or a penguin. But we found out that none of them are warmer. It is because both seals and penguins have a fat undeneath their skin called "Blubber." We knew this because we did an experiment. We covered gone of our hand with vegetable shortening ( That will represent the blubber) and the other hand is without the vegetable shortening.Than we put our hands in the rubber gloves and we put our hands in the cold water for some minutes and we found out, that the hand with the vegetable shortening was much more warmer than the hand without it.
We met a visitors called Mr Fuzzy he was funny and he thought us a lot about the plastic bag and recycling. He aso thought us another word "REFUSE" we also danced with the moves. We also had another visitor from HP she thought us that we should bring all the finished printer catridge and put them in a box in the learning lounge.
We had alot of fun this week. ( Don't forget to bring the ink catridges.)

This week was awesome because we got to meet three authors and their names were Peter Murray and Julia Johnson and Fran la Bonte.They were awesome because Peter Murray scared all of us and Julia Johnson showed us one of her books. That book was Leopard Boy. Fran la Bonte showed us how to make a bracelet out of a palm tree. from rayan
Peter was soooooooooooooo funny he should be in a comedy show and be a comedian . Julia was very caring for animals and I loved the leopard boy story. Fran was very fun she let us make bracelets out of a palm tree leaf. I think Peter Murray was very funny he made me laugh with all of his jokes I like this one about a boy said spongebob was different to anything else.

The Books Rock Competition
By: Melania Mihalcea Date: 20/02/2012
FOR THE BOOKS ROCK BOOKS REVIEW
What is this book about?
There is a trilogy of the secret series. I am only going to be talking about book 1 in this review. Now, to be honest with you, this is what the author said: "To help you follow my story, I'm going to break my own rule-already!- and I'm going to give my characters names and faces. But remember these aren't their real names and faces." From this quote, I think you understood that the characters I am going to tell you about are not with their real names and faces. As it is said in the title, everything is secret. "This is a story about a secret, but it also contains a secret story," says Bosch. Now, onto a summary of what happened...
Cassandra (or Cass) is a survivalist full of predictions of disaster. Not that she wanted them to happen, though. She also had big ears. Max- Ernest, a talkative boy driven by logic and code-breaking skills, makes friends with Cass and become collaborators when they discover The Symphony of Smells and want to know the secret behind it. They accidentally stumble upon the mystery of a dead magician's hidden diary, and the hunt of immortality.This also strongly includes Ms.Mauvais and Dr. L, the enemy that causes the mystery.
I am sorry if that is not enough information about it, but if I want to make you read it, I don't think that including the whole story is a good idea.
Why should you or someone else read it?
I think that you should read it because ,first of all, I didn't tell you what it is about. Second of all, this book is filled with word games and anagrams and featuring a mysterious author, this is a book that won't stay a secret for long. Third of all, this book is A BOOK SENSE WINTER CHILDREN'S PICK, AN EDGAR AWARD NOMINEE, AN E.B WHITE AWARD NOMINEE, A NYPL BOOK FOR THE TEEN AGE, A NAPPA GOLD BOOK, AND AN ABC BOOK FOR CHILDREN. I recommend this book for the whole family. "Playful voice, engaging characters, and unusual plot...a delight to read." -Kidreads.com. Even though this is a quote, this one just described the whole next paragraph I was about to do. I strongly believe that this is one of my favorite books I have ever read. It is so great, in a way that you cannot describe in words, only have the feeling after you read it. It is so Enchanting...
Thank You!
