Science Week

This week we have been scientists.
" Science is when you discover something and you tell people"Sammy
We have been learning about waterproof materials. We were challenged to make a waterproof bird house. We tested different materials and made a prediction of what we thought would happen when water was poured on them. We used felt, paper, bubble wrap and tin foil.


" The foil is waterproof because the water stays on the top " Ronnie.


" The paper soaks up the water . This is why the water took longer to go through the material in the cup" Leo


In our morning activities we predicted what we thought would happen when we added water to salt, sugar and sand.
We also made  a collage from different materials and described how they felt.
" The cotton wool is smooth and soft and the lino is scratchy". Toby
" The lino feels like crisps " Sienna.




We had a  musical instrument workshop, and we explored how different materials make different sounds.


Our home learning this week is to go on a 3D shape hunt, and to name and describe the shapes we see.
Our Learning Owl this week is Charlie M who has been using his exploring and thinking skills in Science week . Well done Charlie have fun with Otto.
