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  😭

we went to see ruining wild in a Sheffield theatre it was great because there was a

elephant 🐘 called oona and a girl called Lilly👯 and a  Tsunami  🌊 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 📖

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.

No Hunting

I think all hunting should be band because it is cruel it is endangering animals like  the rhino its being killed  for its horn the same with elephants but there being killed  for there tusks and is that fare  no it is not fare because in a few years thay mite  be extinct😬

 And I think people should stop cutting down trees because it is destroying monkey's home's 🐒 . And  killing tigers and leopards for there fur 🐅🐆.
