No Pens Day String Telephones
We made string telephones and then took them into the playground to test them. We were amazed that the actually worked!
Measuring gravity
We have been exploring gravity today and measuring the weight and mass of different objects.
Investigating Pitch
We used different musical instruments to investigate high and low sounds. We made pan pipes using straws.
Investigating magnetic force
Today we have been looking at magnetic force and having fun investigating magnets.
Investigating electrical conductors
Lots of fun testing different materials to find out if they are electrical conductors
Investigating thermal insulators
Today we have been investigating thermal insulators
Digestive System Model
We created a model of the digestive system using bread, water (saliva), orange juice (stomach acids) and food colouring (enzymes and bile).
We squished everything around in a freezer bag (stomach), the squeezed it out through some tights (intestines and anus)
Digestive System Dominoes
We learned about the functions of different parts of the digestive system.
Making new materials
A very exciting afternoon making caesin plastic and carbon dioxide.
Testing properties of materials
Today we have been testing different materials based on transparency, magnetism, permeability, hardness and flexibility.
Investigating Teeth
We worked with a partner to investigate our teeth. We noted baby teeth and adult teeth and gaps. Then we colour coded our teeth to show incisors, canines, molars and premolars.
