Building a table and chairs for outside




Yesterday me and the best wood working man in the whole of the world built a table, chairs and sofa for outside. It was very confusing first of all, as we needed to get some tools to attack this thing with. In the box we got 4 allan keys, but we decided to get Aaron's drill driver as it would make things easier. 

First we unboxed all the components out of the box and we layed them on the floor.We decided to put the table together first, we got the table top and sides but before we started to put it together we had a brew. While we had our cuppa we nattered about all of the new tools Aaron has got for the workshop and what each of them did. It was really interesting as he has chosen tools that all work on one type of battery. 



So then we got back to work and put the table together, we then did the chairs and the sofa. It was pretty easy to do with the drill driver as it made tightening the screws really easy. Once we had finished we put it outside in the garden and then we put the cushions on. My new job is to bring the cushions in each night and put them out on a morning. 

Ella, Henry and me had our breakfast outside today and the seats were really comfy. We have also decided to have my birthday tea outside tomorrow, which I am really excited about.

Pollution in our Oceans

Right now pollution is in our oceans, which is not good if we don’t stop now our oceans will be a waste bin for plastic. So here are 5 things the plastic is doing to our oceans. 1. is making our beaches look like trash The beach is a nice place family and friends can go to. Unforceitly the plastic washes up on the sand making it not as nice as we would wish. 2. marine animals dying These poor creatures are being killed because of pollution. The reason they are dying is because they ever eat the plastic or get stuck in it which is the reason they die. 3. marine wildlife home being taken over by plastic Would you like your home to be covered in old plastic? We certainly wouldn’t but the same goes for the marine wildlife they don’t like their home being destroyed by plastic. 4. there is 5.25 trillion pieces of plastic in our oceans This is a handy thing to know because that is a lot of plastic in our oceans but that ocean doesn’t only belong to marine wildlife it belongs to us as well and

Did you know that the milky way isn't just a bar of chocolate? It is a galaxy in our Universe, here are some cool facts about the Milky Way. There are over 200 billion stars in the Milky Way. The Milky Way is only a medium sized galaxy with an estimated 200 billion stars. The largest galaxy we know of is called IC 1101 and has over 100 trillion stars. The Milky Way is also really dusty and gassy. About 10-15% of the Milky Way’s visible matter is made of dust and gas, with the rest being stars. On a clear night, the dusty ring of the Milky Way can be seen in the night sky. The Milky Way was made of over galaxies  In order for the Milky Way to achieve its current size and shape it has consumed other galaxies throughout its history. Our galaxy is currently consuming the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy by adding the smaller galaxy’s stars to its own spiral. The Milky Way is almost as old as the universe itself.Scientists estimate that the Universe is about 13.7 billion years old and that the

Day 13 | A day off

Image
Hello, Today we had a day off from home-school. This was because our Mum was having a bad day health wise and needed to be able to rest, and Daddy was really busy. THEO: I have played on the computer ALL DAY!!! It was really cool as I have a sword to level up in Minecraft and so it was nice to be able to just do that. ELLA:  I decided to do some colouring, and have spent some time reading my book. Finishing the book was the monthly goal I set myself, so I'm trying to read a chapter a day. I also watched a bit of Sonic on TV with Henry. HENRY (as told to Ella & Theo): I played with my toys, I like my Incredibles toys and L.O.L boys. I dressed up as Elsa and sang lots. I watched Sonic on TV. I made the Bolognaise for tea with Daddy. It felt nice to have a day off on a Thursday but it was a little weird too! Not doing any work felt strange but Mum said we would have learnt stuff without knowing it. We're not really sure what she means but she seems happy.
