The P4\/5\u2019s needed to wrap up in warm clothes as it was very cold! For part of the\u00a0day\u00a0we learned about road safety \u2013 in\u00a0particular\u00a0driver blind spots and stopping distances. We sat inside a car and had a classmate walk around it. We realised we\u00a0couldn\u2019t\u00a0see then all the way around \u2013 which is a blind spot. We also looked at stopping distances and were shocked to see how long it takes for a car to stop at 20 and 30mph! If it\u00a0was\u00a060mph, the stopping distance would have been bigger than the bottom playground, through the school fence and into the houses beyond!<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">We also had fun at the fire pit. We learned about fire safety, what we need to make fire (fuel,\u00a0oxygen\u00a0and a\u00a0spark)and\u00a0what 4 energies we get from fire (Heat, Light, Sound and Kinetic). Mr Matier has challenged\u00a0us to remember what Kinetic energy is so please ask us when you see this!<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">We finished off with making\u00a0S\u2019mores.
