Task 3

Your sister has bought a new piggy bank gift for her best friend. Upon seeing the present, her best friend returned it to her immediately and said that its material gives a clear view of the amount of coins and dollar notes she has put into it and she does not like the idea.

Your sister looks at the piggy bank again and she cannot figure out what is wrong with the material of the piggy bank. Your sister approaches you for help.

She needs you to tell her what is wrong with the choice of the material for the piggy bank and what would be a better material in this case. As this gift is quite costly, she wants you to come up with solutions to alter the design of the piggy bank by ensuring that people cannot see the amount of coins and dollar notes put in.

You're to encouraged to present your ideas to your sister creatively.

Answer :
My sister can paint the piggy bank OR wrap it with a wrapping paper before giving it to her best friend. Using opaque material is better as people can't see through it and thus people would not know how much you have save.

Entry 18: Reflective Time for Science (Light Energy)

I use light to do my homework, my brother uses light to play his toys, my mother uses light to pack her things, my father uses light to watch television and my maid uses light to cook.


Light helps me and my family to see things around us clearly, do my homework, watch television and cook.


Life would be boring as we can't do our work, and the plants will die as they can't make food without light so will the herbivores because they only feed on plants so when the plants die, there will be no food for them.
