Music - A million Dreams

In music I'm in a group with Trisha, Lily - Ray and Lauren. Trisha is doing the piano as well as me. Lily - Ray is doing the ukulele and Lauren is dancing. The song we have chosen is A Million dreams because we could contribute a piano, ukulele and dance in it.  Here is the song - A Million Dreams.  In the scene where the song was used, the young P.T Barnum was basically in love with a female friend, although her parent's didn't approve of it.  First I'm working on my part of the piano and the challenging part is combining the ukulele and dance in it because we all have to be on the beat. 

Science - Acid Rain

Acid Rain:
Acid rain makes chemical weathering happen more quickly. When fossil fuels likes coal, oil and natural gases are burned, oxides of carbon and sulfur escape into the air. These molecules dissolve in the water that's from the clouds and makes rainwater more acidic then normal. The process is called acid rain.

The process
1. Burning of fossil fuels.
2. Molecules dissolve.
3. Precipitation.

Method:
Put a moist apple, petal and calcium carbonate petri dish spaced apart. After put three drops of universal indicator, bromothynal indicator spaced apart. Get a weigh boat and put sodium solfid plus water and sulphuric acid and mix together.  Afterwards put the lid on the top of petri dish.

Observations:
Universal indicator was green and turned red.
Bromothynal indicator was blue and turned green/yellow.
Petal lost a bit of it's colour and was hard.
Apple turned hard.
Calcium carbonate turned crusty.

Art

This photograph is called Loyalist Militiaman and was taken by Robert Capa. The image is about a solider collapsing after being shot in the head with the weapon slipping out his hand. It was taken on September 5 1936. Robert was famous for taking war photos and was also a photojournalist.  Robert also got an award at the World Press Photo Award for General News.

My critique is that I don't like how the man was shot because it make you feel sad. If I used this image to inspire my friends, I wouldn't use a weapon but instead there would be someone holding on to the person so they wouldn't be falling but catching. Even though the image is someone getting shot I wanted to make a positive thing.
