pangrams

The exquisite hippopotamus moved gracefully in the murky watering hole while the baboons, jaguar and zebras were drinking from it.

why does popcorn pop

Why popcorn pops

This text will be telling you how and why popcorn pops.

Popcorn has a very different shell to normal corn. Popcorn has a hard shell which is called a hull where normal corn has a softshell. A popcorn kernel pops from the pressure that builds up in the hull But for this to happen you have to heat it up in the microwave, pan or popcorn maker. This pressure is made up of all the moisture being heated. When there is moisture in the kernel and it gets heated up the moisture turns into steam. When enough steam builds up the kernel goes pop!. It pops because there is nowhere for the steam to go. It has to escape so it breaks through the hull (shell). When it goes pop! all the white stuff explodes out. now there's some ready to eat popcorn kernels.

All that white stuff is starch that the kernel eats.

The shoemaker

The shoemaker

The shoemaker owns a small shop on a busy street. It seems he has been working and establishing the business for a long time now. The little shoemaker is very experienced at his job and only sells shoes he made. He is short and old and his shoes are his prized possession.

All the shoes are quite old fashion and unique. All of the shoes are kept squeaky clean. All of them are displayed at the large shop window to catch the customers eyes. The shoes he made had a life of their own. They slept and even moved by themselves. They were all different colours and styles, that meant they had different attitudes as well.

How to do a Wall Sit

How to do a Wall Sit

  1. First, you need to find a hard wall(not glass).

  1. Once you have found you’re wall you need to lay your back flat on it as if you were sitting in a real chair.

  1. When you’ve got your back on the wall spread your feet 30cm apart and keep your feet approximately 30cm from the wall your leaning on. 

  1. Rest your arms on your lap and hold your position.

You can do this as much as you like and for as long as you like.
