Dear Mrs Baker,

I am positive that my uncle deserves this award because he is always a very thoughtful and he is also very caring and he would always think positivley and he was always the person I would go to because he would protect me from things that I did not like even if it was my aunties meatloaf when I was at his house. When I was abseiling, I used to be scared of heights and he would always be there right beside me to encourage me that I could I could do it.

When I get hungry he would share his food that he bought from the shop or pak-n-save. Also when I got bored on the weekends he would go get out his PS3 and let me play on it in the lounge, And when I could not get past a level he would tell me cheat codes or if there were none he would do it for me. One thing that he provides is money so I could go get lollies from the shop or for ice-cream.

He is my rolemodel and he inspires me to grow up like him.

Making Your Own Magnet




What you will need:
1. A thick magnet. (Not a fridge magnet)
2. A paper clip.

Method:

1. Get a paper clip and a magnet but make sure it is not a fridge magnet beause the magnetism will not be strong enough.
2. Hold the paper clip in one hand and the magnet in the other and run the paper clip close to the magnet 50-100 times as fast as you can.
3. When you finished doing that get something small and metal and put the paper clip near it and the paper clip will pick up the small metal object.

Run the paper clip along the magnet more times for more magnetism.

When it is done, have fun!
