Energy saving homework

When we moved to kowhi street we basically straight away brought energy saving light bulbs and put them into the light bulb sockets in the ceiling in some the rooms. We also saved up heat wich we have a fire in the office/lounge and stopped using heaters. And finally we brought a different meter for the hot water, wich means our water only heats at night time now.

LTL S.C.U.B.A

This week in LTL I read a book called S.C.U.B.A underwater diving invention.

It told me who invented the SCUBA diving suit. The person who invented it was Jacques (pronounced Jack)  Cousteau who was a famous diver. The problem was when he invented it World War 2 was going on and the Nazi's were controlling France and they could have used it for the war and make it bombs underwater, so he had to invent it in secret. SCUBA stands for Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatis. I enjoyed reading this book because it told me a lot about history and I really enjoy learning about history.
