Bottle Rocket

In Room 1 we have been doing a science fair project. 

In my group we have been learning about bottle rockets. 

I enjoyed it because when we launched it, 

it flew into the sky. 

I found the discussion kind of hard because there were so many things to put in it.         

St Joseph

In Room 1 we have been learning about saints. I have been learning about St Joseph. I enjoyed learning about him because he is well known and a good person.

St Joseph was born in Bethlehem and lived until Jesus was 26 years old which would have made him around 60 years old at the time of his death. It is not known how he died except that he died in Nazareth, Israel. St Joseph was described as a Carpenter. He married Mary then he found out that she was already pregnant.He wanted to divorce her but back then if anybody found out Mary would be killed. An Angel came to Joseph and told him that Marys child was the son of God and was made by the Holy Spirit so Joseph keep Mary as his wife and became Jesus’s foster father. St Joseph was made a protector of the Catholic Church. He was described as putting everybody's needs first before his own, and always thinking of others.
