Successful Learners Confident Individuals
The Moonbeams have had lots of fun learning with ice this week.
First for our science experiment, the children mixed some ingredients with milk and shook in a bag with another bag of ice and salt to create some delicious ice cream which they all enjoyed tasting.
Then carrying on with our ice theme, the children have been learning about Penguins as part of our Edinburgh Zoo theme. We learned that Penguins spend most of their time in the ice cold water and that they are able to cope with the cold temperatures as they are well insulated with layers of fat.
The Moonbeams dipped their hands in the ice cold water and decided it was very cold. They then dipped their hands in the water again but this time they were covered in lard. The children were able to say that it did not feel as cold.
