This is me with a creation I made with a straws and sellotape. I am quite proud of it.  It sounds like a glissando on the piano.  It can go high to low, or low to high.  The shorter the straw the higher the sound.  Pretty cool, A?  

I made this one first.  But it is not robust enough.  After Isabelle and I thought and saw some other creations I made this.

Have a great day!  I'd love to hear your feedback.

Magnificent Maths Minds

Here Is A Maths Problem, Try To Solve It.

Once upon a time there was a big bag of candy. 

In the bag of candy there were 25 lollipops.  

1/5 of the bag was milk bottles

 Another fifth of the bag was gummies.  And 2/5 of the bag was bananas.  

How many bananas were there in all of the bag?
Comment your answer.
