Wizard of Oz Workshop
Today the children had a wonderful workshop all about the Wizard of Oz! The children played a variety of games and had lots of fun applying what they knew about the story from our Literacy lessons to get the most out of the experience.
Melting Experiment
During this science lesson the children were investigation how fast ice melts using different methods. This first method was using our hands to melt to ice. The second method was putting the ice cube under running water. The third method was wrapping the ice cube in tissue and the final method was leaving the ice cube in a cup of lemonade. We discovered that wrapping it in tissue meant that the ice cube stayed cold and took the longest to melt!
Bishop John Sherrington
Our topic this half term for Science is Changes of State. We have been learning about the different properties of Solids, Liquids and Gases the children absolutely loved dancing to the solid, liquids and gases song whilst chanting all the properties!
