This week we worked with Matty on our striking skills. There are some pretty skilled soccer players in our class. It is wonderful to see the children becoming more confident and ball savvy each time we have PE.

One of the highlights of our mornings is the chance to hear and share from our classmates. I appreciate the variety. Well done students and parents for coming up with interesting and entertaining news to share.

Thinking like a Scientist Inquiry:
One of the experiments we did this week involved some rather large iceblocks. We but coloured water into gloves and froze them.
We wondered which part of the hand would melt first and made an hypothesis.
We also tried putting salt on one and watched in amazement as it cracked and pinged as water raced off it.
We also tried putting one hand in water. Which of the hands do you think melted the fastest and why?
Scientist closely observing before making their hypothesis. |
Scientists survey the differences between the salty hand and the watery one. |
STAR STUDENT:
This week's STAR is Locky. He has been a very enthusiastic Scientist and has impressed us with his well thought out ideas. Locky is looking for patterns and making connections between the new things he is learning and the things he already knows. Thanks for your friendly attitude!
