Fun at Carmody Carnival

This morning we had a carnival called Carmody Carnival. We were selling things that we made from mixtures. All the other Year 2 classes came to our carnival to be the customers.
The stalls were Popcorn and Fairy Floss, Sidewalk Painting, Number Slime, Bubble Blowing, Rockets, Finger Painting, Moon Sand and Sherbet.
Excuse me, how much is your popcorn?

Wow! Sherbet! What is in the mixture?

Stand back! It's ready to launch!

We all had lots of fun making the mixtures and learning about Science in the morning and we certainly had fun learning about Maths by selling our mixtures to our friends.
We were very excited about our carnival. We would love to do something like this again.
Fabulously fun fingerpainting

  7. At the Carmody Carnival, me, Nathan and Sophia were in a group. We made sherbet. We had green and blue sherbet. To make it, we mixed jelly crystals, citric acid, baking soda and icing sugar. We sold it for 50 cents each. Our group made lots of money.

  12. Hi Year 2,

    When I was walking by I saw you all in the playground so I stopped to find out what you were doing. It looked so interesting. I got a very big fright when some intersting white tablets exploded in a little plastic container and then I got to try some home made sherbert which was very tasty but gave me the shivers. Year 2 looks like a lot of fun!!
