This week Audrey and I dissected owl pellets which are sort of like hairballs they contain bones and hair we found a big skull. I think we found a pretty good variety of bones. I wore some gloves so my hands wouldn’t get dirty. We made a creature with our bones we use two big rodent Skulls  that we found on the top part. And worked our way down we sort of made octopus tentacles with all of our little bones. We got to watch this cool  movie called hoot I thought it was funny we haven’t watch the whole thing yet. I have a lot of questions about the movie, that I’ll probably find out later on. I’m also researching about the whet owl I think owls are cool. I’m glad we’re doing these activities so I can learn more about them.We also listened to this funny song about adaptation. My three questions are what types of owls live in Michigan. What climates do owls live in. In addition, are they illegal to hunt? In conclusion, I had a awesome week and look forward to learning more about owls

 This week Lars and I blew up Alka-Seltzer. We used 15 mils of water with a half a pill then a quarter then a whole one. we figured out the more usually makes it  explode quicker but not as high and usually less makes it explode slower but it goes a little bit higher. 

The reason why we did experimenting with Alka-Seltzer, It is to learn how chemical reactions work. we used the flagpole to measure how high up it went. we tried to catch it In the air,   it was fun to experiment with Alka-Seltzer I never did it before. my 3rd question is, what else can you use besides Alka-Seltzer to make it explode and how much mils of water are you supposed to use to make it go higher? And why do you have to use Alka-Seltzer For the experiment. What Else I liked is watching a video about that hopping mouse and how it could turn poison into a Pan killer the mouse is pretty much invincible I thought it was really cool.
