Pouakai Zoo

We went on a big bus to Pouakai Zoo. A man drove the bus. When we got off the bus the bus driver left the door open and he backed up. I called out ‘hey, shut the door!’

At the zoo I saw a lion and a bengal tiger. We watched Adam feed the tigers and the lions.

It rained and I got soaking wet and I had fun jumping in the puddles. I splashed mud up Susan’s trousers!

I made a pic collage of our trip.

Puddles

I saw some great puddles on the concrete. I ran in the puddles. I went splash with my feet and my shoes got wet. I want to see how much water is in a puddle so I went on a Google search to find out. Another school had posted how they did it so I will try it. I will need a measuring cup with numbers on the side. I might need a bucket to scoop up the water.  I think there will be 2 cups of water in my puddle. It stopped raining so I had to make a puddle. I used a pipet to suck up the water and I put the water into the beaker. I counted how many millilitres of water was in the beaker. There was about 395 millilitres of water in my puddle - nearly two cups!
