York museums

On Friday me my nanny and my sister went to York on a train. Once there we went to three different museums they are Yorkshire museum York castle museum  and National Railway Museum.

We first went to the Yorkshire museum. A kind lady gave us some nuts to feed the squirrels and said that they would take the nuts out of our hands, most of them went to some pigeons one of the pigeons had a broken foot and it got most of my nuts.

 In the Yorkshire museum there was a viking exhibit a roman exhibit a extinct exhibit and a Ice age exhibit.In the viking exhibit there was a thing that tells you how viking you are and I am 79 percent viking my sister is 74 percent and my Nan is 66 percent. There was a animal exhibit and there was a red squirrel and a gray squirrel and the size of the red squirrel comped to the gray squirrel the red squirrel is so small and cute there was a big whale skull and a saber tooth tiger. 

At the York castle museum there was a Victorian street with shops that you could go in and out of there was also this sweet shop that you could go in  and by sweets and other stuff and a sweet place where it showed how to make things like cake and Turkish delight and stuff like that. here was also a shape game that times you to sort out 4 shapes and my one was 64.5 seconds but my sister did it in 21.02 seconds  and my Nan didn't do it so she did not get a time  but over all I won . I am the size of a chimney sweep from Victorian times and a toy place with a dream thing.

The last one we went to was the National Railway Museum we have been there before so it was not as exiting but it was still fun

I am queen

Helping Bees Survive 🐝

Bees are flying insects closely related to wasps and ants, known for their role in pollination and, in the case of the best-known bee species, the European honey bee, for producing honey and beeswax. Bees are a monophyletic lineage within the superfamily Apoidea and are presently considered a clade, called Anthophila. there are 20,000 known species of bees in seven recognised biological families. They are found on every continent except Antarctica, in every habitat on the planet that contains insect-pollinated flowering plants. Man kind wouldn't suvive 4 years is it wasn't for bees                                                                                                                            
hears some things that a bee needs to survive

  1. a watering site (a way for bees to get water and not drown )
  2. a nesting site
  3. plant nectar
  4. a Queen bee
Bees are in trouble because we are destroying flowers fields and trees all of witch are what a bee needs to survive . Flowers and fields are food for the bees and trees  are nesting grounds for the bees 

     hears how to  help bees survive                 
  •  build  a nesting ground  or just stop cuting down trees
  • make a watering site  
  • plant flowers

The Secret Life Of Pets

Today we watched the secret life of pets it was the best film yet  my  favourite  part was when the white dog was ansoring the TV and went out and left the TV on  well I think so .


A Jack Russell Terrier named Max lives with his owner Katie in a Manhattan apartment. While she is at work during the day, he hangs out with other pets in the building: tabby cat Chloe, pug Mel, dachshund Buddy, and budgerigar Sweetpea. One day,
 Katie adopts Duke, a large mongrel from the pound, leaving Max jealous because of her divided focus on Duke. Enraged by M
ax's attitude towards him, Duke tries to abandon Max in an alley, but they are both attacked by cats led by Sphynx cat Ozone. They remove both dogs' collars and leave them to be caught by Animal Control. Duke fears that he will be put down if he goes back to the pound.

 They are rescued by a white rabbit named Snowball, the leader of "The Flushed Pets" – a gang of sewer-dwelling animals who hate humans because their owners mistreated them. After Max and Duke pretend to despise humans as much as they do by saying they killed their owners, the Flushed Pets invite them to join. Before they can prove their loyalty by allowing a viper to bite them, Snowball learns from the cats that Max and Duke are domesticated. The two dogs escape the sewers and board a ferry to Brooklyn inadvertently killing the viper in the process; Snowball vows to kill them and leads the Flushed Pets after them.

 Gidget, a white Pomeranian with a desperate crush on Max, discovers he is missing and recruits a red-tailed hawk named Tiberius to find him. After looking over the city for Max, Tiberius returns carrying Ozone, whom Gidget coerces into telling what he knows about the dogs.

 Gidget and Tiberius then enlist Mel, Buddy, Chloe, guinea pig Norman, Sweetpea, and Pops, an old basset hound to begin searching Manhattan. The group encounters Snowball, who vows to kill them as well, and Norman is captured as the rest of Gidget's team flees.

In Brooklyn, Max and Duke raid a sausage factory for food. Duke tells Max about his previous owner, Fred, an elderly man who adopted him as a puppy and loved spending time with him. One day, Duke got lost while chasing a butterfly and was caught by Animal Control, but Fred never came to claim him.

 Max convinces him to visit Fred's house in a nearby neighborhood, confident Fred will still love him and take him back. When they arrive, though, they learn from a resident cat that Fred died. Heartbroken, Duke accuses Max of attempting to get rid of him and barks at the new homeowners who had just returned to the house, who call Animal Control. The handlers catch Max, but Duke interferes long enough for Max to escape and ends up being captured instead. While trying to rescue Duke as he follows the Animal Control van, Max is attacked by Snowball who tries to kill him. However, when his gang is captured, Snowball realizes that he and Max must work together to rescue them.

 They drive a city bus into the van on the Brooklyn Bridge, stopping traffic. The Flushed Pets encircle Max, unaware of his partnership with Snowball, but Gidget and her team save him. When Gidget is using her kung-fu fighting skills, Max starts to fall in love with her. The van rolls away; the Flushed Pets escape, but the van falls into the East River with Duke inside. Max is unable to get the keys to Duke's cage, so Snowball jumps into the river to retrieve them, allowing Max and Duke to escape the sinking van. Once out of the river, Snowball realizes how good being heroic feels. The entire group returns to the apartment block by pig-driven taxi.

 Max expresses his love for Gidget, who returns his affection. Snowball and the Flushed Pets then come up with a new plan to annihilate all humans, but Snowball is suddenly adopted by a little girl named Molly. At first, Snowball resists, but gives in and lets himself become a domesticated pet. The remaining Flushed Pets return to the sewers, the domesticated pets return to their homes and embrace their owners, and Max and Duke finally reunite with Katie, sparking a true friendship.

My Second STEM Session

Yesterday me and  my sister went to a STEM session. We were looking at how fossils and how bugs get stuck in Amber and I met my friend Kara and  we put a plastic bug in a half  full cup and we
put  the last three layers on .

 Metamorphic rocks are formed under the surface of the earth from the metamorphosis (change) that occurs due to intense heat and pressure (squeezing). The rocks that result from these processes often have ribbonlike layers and may have shiny crystals, formed by minerals growing slowly over time, on their surface. Examples of this rock type include gneiss and marble.

 Igneous rocks are formed when magma (molten rock deep within the earth) cools and hardens. Sometimes the magma cools inside the earth, and other times it erupts onto the surface from volcanoes (in this case, it is called lava). When lava cools very quickly, no crystals form and the rock looks shiny and glasslike. Sometimes gas bubbles are trapped in the rock during the cooling process, leaving tiny holes and spaces in the rock. Examples of this rock type include basalt and obsidian.

Sedimentary rocks are formed from particles of sand, shells, pebbles, and other fragments of material. Together, all these particles are called sediment. Gradually, the sediment accumulates in layers and over a long period of time hardens into rock. Generally, sedimentary rock is fairly soft and may break apart or crumble easily. You can often see sand, pebbles, or stones in the rock, and it is usually the only type that contains fossils. Examples of this rock type include conglomerate and limestone.

So Much To Tell You

I have done so much over the last couple of weeks like going to watch beauty and the beast🌹with Nikki my best freind. I went to Sheffield Hallam university 🏒 for four days and one of my sisters rats champagne died  πŸ˜­
we went to see ruining wild in a Sheffield theatre it was great because there was a
elephant 🐘 called oona and a girl called LillyπŸ‘― and a  Tsunami  πŸŒŠ kills Lilly's mum and oona runs of into the jungle and then a tiger attacked but in the end the tiger was killed by poachers and Lily sings  this poem                                                                                                                                              Tiger Tiger ,burning bright in the forest of the night                                  what immortal hand or eye could frame thy fearful symmetry                  what distant deeps or skies burnt the fire of thine eyes?                                    On what wings dare he aspire?What the hand, dare seize the fire             And what shoulder, & what art,Could twist the sinews of thy heart?        And when thy heart began to beat, What dread hand? & what dread feet?      What the hammer? what the chain, In what furnace was thy brain?          What the anvil? what dread grasp, Dare its deadly terrors clasp!            When the stars threw down their spears And water'd heaven with their tears:   Did he smile his work to see? Did he who made the Lamb make thee?          Tiger Tiger,burning bright in the forest of the night                                         what  immortal hand or eye dare frame thy fearful symmetry                                                                                             
 I went to  Sherwood forest an it was so fun hear is some information  about Sherwood forest

Sherwood Country Park lies just north of Edwinstowe, two miles from Ollerton and 17 miles north of Nottingham                                                                                                                               
Evidence of flint tools shows some use of the Sherwood area by prehistoric hunter-gatherers. During the late Iron Age and Roman periods, human habitation and farming was more common. By the 9th century, farming communities were making a greater impact on the Sherwood landscape. Most of these communities still exist today. Names ending in ‘by’ like Thoresby, are Scandinavian in origin, ‘thorpe’ as in Gleadthorpe are Danish, and ‘feld’ (field) as in Mansfield, are Roman.


The name ‘Sherwood’ was first recorded in 958AD when it was called Sciryuda, meaning ‘the woodland belonging to the shire’. It became a Royal hunting forest after the Norman invasion of 1066, and was popular with many Norman kings, particularly King John and Edward I.

 The ruins of King John’s hunting lodge can still be seen near the Nottinghamshire village of Kings Clipstone. ‘Forest’ was a legal term, and meant an area subject to special Royal laws designed to protect the valuable resources of timber and game (Vert and Venison) within its boundaries. These laws were strictly and severely imposed by agisters, foresters, verderers (wardens) and rangers, who were all were employed by the Crown. In the 1200s, popularly thought to be the time of Robin Hood, Sherwood covered about 100,000 acres, which was a fifth of the entire county of Nottinghamshire. The main London to York road, the Great North Way, ran straight through Sherwood, and travellers were often at the mercy of robbers living outside of the law. Hence the name ‘outlaw’.

Coraline Book By Neil Gaiman Review πŸ“–

Coraline by Neil Gaiman is a good book I think because it is funny scary and good to read. I got my  book from the library but I need to return it on the 27 of January but I might get it renewed. the book is about a girl called Coraline who wants to explore but is ignored by her parents so she explores. She comes across a small door that is locked so she pesters her mum to open the door and when  Coralines mum opens it there is just brick. 

I have seen the film and it is ok but the book is better than the film and the book has so many things the film has not got  like the other mother is tall and thin in the book but in the film the other mother is like mother number 1 for the first how ever long.
