Today we have been looking at magnetic force and having fun investigating magnets. 

We constructed food chains.

Lots of fun testing different materials to find out if they are electrical conductors 

Today we have been investigating thermal insulators 

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)

We learned about the functions of different parts of the digestive system.

A very exciting afternoon making caesin plastic and carbon dioxide. 

Today we have been testing different materials based on transparency, magnetism, permeability, hardness and flexibility.

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.

Today we started our new science topic about materials and we turned the classroom into a big science dictionary.
