Making a Compass

Sailors have been using a compass for thousands of years when they navigate. Compasses always point to the magnetic North owing to the magnetic field of the Earth. It isn't difficult to make a compass! 

      To make a compass, we need a needle, a piece of brown paper, and some water. First, we magnetize the needle ( by rubbing it on cotton ). Second, we float it in the water with brown paper.

      The first problem, was that the paper sunk all the time, but then, we took a thicker piece of paper and it floated better. The second problem, was that we couldn't recognize which of the two ends were pointing North, but then, we solved the problem by looking at the sun.

      We had some problems, but we enjoyed making a compass! So, the next time I'm in a mountain, I'll know how to use it!!!!!!!

MINECRAFT QUIZ

Stav challenges you to the ultimate Minecraft quiz


Rotten School

“Rotten school” is by R.L. Stine who writes the “Goosebumps” series but this is a hilarious book. It is set in a school where everybody does anything they want. Seriously!

The protagonist of the book is a guy named Bernie Bridges that lives in the school, he is a boarder. Bernie learns that a guy has a watch that has many functions and it attracts all the girls and he wants it. Is Bernie going to get this watch?

What made me laugh most, was about a competition they had for who could eat the most and a kid was sick and he threw up all the food.

I thoroughly recommend  “Rotten school” because it is a disgusting comedy, although I advise you not to read it after eating.
