Eggs

Look what happens when you put eggs in vinegar

Egg-citing Experiment

We put the eggs in a cup to soak in vinegar. All the shell came off it. We left it for three days. When they had soaked we got some newspaper on the cobbles and took the eggs out of the vinegar. We wanted to see what would happen...

We tried to bounce the eggs! Some where bouncy and a few popped.

We bounced the eggs from a low distance to stop them from popping.

Next, we are soaking them a bit longer to see what happens.

The Water Cycle

Logan, Anna and Kendra have been learning about the water cycle. 

Here are some essential facts:

It is necessary to take care of water because we only have a certain amount.

The water goes in a cycle. 

The sun evaporates water from the sea. 

It turns into vapour. 

Look at our posters that explain the water cycle.

Week 8, Wonderings

Week 8

I cannot believe that it is already week 8! Where has the time gone? Over the last couple of weeks we have been taking part in some very exciting science experiments. We have made inflatable air beds out of straws and plastic bags, made pyslli slime out of psyllium husk and water, oobleck out of water and corn flour, magic beans out of paper and marbles, and root-copters out of paper and paperclips. This week we were going to be making bouncy balls but I am struggling to find borax.. So this week we are going to be looking at experiments with eggs... hmmm I wonder what we will do with them....

PLEASE have a look at Caitlin's and Abbey's explanation writing about pyslli slime.

Have a great week all

Wonder Wall (week 5)

Week 5

Wow I have been so impressed by everyones contributions on our Wondering Walls. Keep all the comments coming as we do have another wall for week 5.
Just a reminder that this week is a short one, but we will still be having homework like normal. If you were away on Friday you need to remember to get your homework sheet off my desk - it will have your name on it :)
If you would like to work on your multiplication/ division facts have a look on the Mult/Div game link that I have added down the side of the page.
I have also added the reading tumbler that we looked on Friday. For those that were away this is a website that has online books on it. You can either read the books or can listen to them. Let me know how you get on.

I hope you are all ready for a busy day tomorrow.
