FAOL – SCIENCE

*Successful Learners* *Confident Individuals*

This week we have been learning more about where our food comes from. We looked closely at where Milk comes from and created our own experiment to experience ‘Milking a Cow’.

After ‘Milking the Cow’, we followed a simple recipe to make Ice-cream in a Bag. We explored the ice and talked about hot & cold. We mixed the ice in a big bag with salt & then placed a smaller bag of milk inside it and shook it around to watch the milk turn into ice-cream. We found it was much harder for the chocolate milk to turn to ice-cream!

And for the best part…

IDL/THEME – FARM TO FORK

*Successful Learners*  *Confident Individuals*

The Sungazers have started our new topic ‘Farm to Fork’ and have been learning all about where our food comes. We have been discussing foods that we like & dislike, as well as foods that we think are good for our bodies.

We made a fresh snack using Farm produced foods:

We continued practising our life skills by making our own Pig Biscuits. We used a mixture of healthy and sugary foods and talked about how it is good to eat sweet treats in moderation. These treats were more of a hit in the class, believe it or not!

WELCOME BACK SUNGAZERS!

*Confident Individuals* *Successful Learners* *Effective Contributors*

The Sungazers have settled into their new classroom & school routine very well. We read the story ‘Giraffe’s Can’t Dance’ and talked about all of things that we can do if we work hard! We also used Science to see if we could make raisins dance inside a bottle full of lemonade – this was fascinating!

We have enjoyed plenty of Art activities to brighten up our classroom and the Wee Den. The class have let Miss. McCreath know that they all really enjoy Science so we’ve already had plenty of science experiments and messy play!

We have a lot of photos to share next week. Have a great weekend!

Week beginning Monday 17th May

 The Sungazers were ‘Confident Individuals’ as they took part in our explosive science activity. They had great fun at our hands-on science session which responded to the children’s natural curiosity.  They used simple every day ingredients and made their own volcanoes, developing skills of observation, prediction and team work.

Sungazers FAOL – Science in Class – Slime

The Sungazers Class love science and have all participated in various science activities over the term, making lava lamps, volcanoes, sensory snow, and slime. Their favourite experiment is making the cornflour slime as not only is it a good sensory science activity, it’s also good messy fun!

The boys are now able to follow the steps and make their own slime with minimal assistance.
