Science: Floating Ink
P2/3 were drawing pictures on plates today using whiteboard pens and then poured water on top to see what would happen. We experimented with different colours of whiteboard pens and different-sized pictures.
Some of our pictures floated and some could be peeled off the plate.
Well done P2/3!
Check out this video of P2/3s floating ink.
Space: Neil Armstrong
This week P2/3 were learning about Neil Armstrong as part of our Space topic. We made our own moon footprints from salt dough.
The children loved seeing this video of Neil Armstrong on the moon.
Amazing work P2/3!
Science: Dancing Rice
P2/3 stirred sodium bicarbonate into water, added rice, and then dripped vinegar in – the carbon dioxide created caused the rice to dance.
Amazing work P2/3!
Check out this video of P2/3s dancing rice.
Space: Rockets
P2/3 have started learning all about space. This week we were learning the names of the different parts of a rocket and making our own space rockets!
Well done P2/3!
Science: Foaming and Fizzing Experiment
Yesterday, P2/3 poured vinegar onto sodium bicarbonate to see what would happen. We predicted what would happen and then wrote our own science report.
We learned that carbon dioxide gas is given off during the reaction.
Amazing work P2/3!
Check out this video of our foaming and fizzing experiment.
Science: Jelly Bean Experiment
This term P2/3 are learning how to write Science Reports as part of our writing. Yesterday we placed jelly beans in hot water and vinegar to see what would happen overnight.
Excellent Experimenting P2/3!
Black History Month: Rosa Parks
Today P2/3 were learning about a brave figure in history – Rosa Parks. We read the ‘Little People, Big Dreams: Rosa Parks’ book.
The children were shocked while reading the book but were very engaged in discussing equality meaning behind her brave actions and how these led to a change in the rules. courage equality
We had a look at the Rosa Parks US Postage Stamp and designed our own Rosa Parks Stamp.
Amazing work P2/3!
Reading Buddies
P5/6 were reading buddies for P2/3 and helped them to read their books that they borrowed from the mobile library.
Mobile Library Visit
P2/3 were very excited to be visiting the mobile library today. We also made bookmarks to use with the books we borrowed.
