Teddy Bear Enterprise

As a class we have decided to sell raffle tickets for a giant teddy bear to raise money for the school. We will sell tickets during lunch and the winner will be announced at the Christmas concert. We conducted surveys to begin with to gauge the level of interest and recorded our data on tally sheets. Over the next few weeks we have decided to use Google Sheets to record ticket sales to monitor profit and loss and number of tickets sold to each class. We will then generate and interpret the charts to find out how successful we have been!  Finally we will send out a Google Form for pupils in other classes to fill out to find out how we could change the enterprise for next year.

 

 

Ocean Acidification

We have been exploring global issues using critical thinking approaches. We explored the problem of ocean acidification using the critical thinking tree.

We identified the roots of the problem, the impact it has on the environment and for us all.  We then explored different solutions and actions we could take as global citizen.

We then created concept cartoons to display our learning.

I used ICT to create my concept cartoon. My solution was to work together to stop polluting the environment. Scott

Acids and Alkalines

In science we have been learning about acids and alkaline by conducting experiments using litmus paper and the ph scale.

Acids range from PH 1-6 and shows up as red, orange and yellow on the ph scale. Lemon is an example of an acid and can be corrosive. Alkalines range from 7-14 and show up as 8-14 on the ph scale. Toothpaste is an alkaline which we use to neutralise the acid in food we have eaten such as fruit.

We created posters to display our learning . I really enjoyed conducting the experiments and predicting what type of substances are acids or alkalines.  Thomas S
