Plants

We have been growing our own seeds in Room 5. We predicted that grass seed would grow fastest. The snow peas have grown the quickest. Check out our seedlings...they are ready to go into our gardens at home!

Rocket Blast Off!!

Today we made our Rocket blast off.

Inside the rocket we put vinegar and baking soda. They reacted together creating a gas called CO2.

The pressure inside the rocket built up and made the rocket blast off it's stand and high into the air!

                                   

                                        

  

Light

Today we were experimenting with light!

We made a simple circuit using wires, batteries and bulbs.

We made our own sunset shining a torch through milky water.

The particles in the milk scatter the light, however orange and red colours scatter the least and shine through. This is why we see these colours in a sunrise or sunset!

Science, billowing balloons.

Room 5 Science. Billowing Balloons.

Can we blow up a balloon using vinegar and baking soda?

Yasmine"s Kittens Visit Room 5

We have been very interested in the regular updates that Yasmine provides us on her kittens since they were born.  We were all so excited when they came to visit us.  Tyrone loved spending time with them and was very careful and respectful towards them.

Safety Walk Through Clive

We went for a walk around Clive to discuss the various dangers around us and how we can keep safe in our community.  We also enjoyed a treat beside the river.

I-Pads in Room 5

We enjoy our time with the i-Pads in Room 5.  We have used a new game called "Slide" to help us with the quick recall of our basic facts for maths.
