Other activities include CSI forensic workshops, bodyworks ‘Making Poop’ biology workshop and the mobile planetarium.
It certainly is a fun week of learning and fun.
Class Bute have been learning about materials for their science topic.
Here is a quick update of what they have been doing over the past few weeks.
Week 1 – as an intro they learned about the properties of straw, sticks and bricks via the story of The Three Little Pigs.
Week 2 – was all about sensory materials – gloop, waterballs, etc
Weeks 3 – 5 is all about transforming paper using ‘machines’ – punches, embossers, staplers, scissors and a paper crinkler.
This week class Bute are preparing for the Science Fair. Their invention is a paper aeroplane launcher mostly for use to support pupils in wheelchairs in flying a paper aeroplane.
The class had great fun trying out this invention last week and you could hear the hearty laughter from Ethan as the aerolane was launched from outside the conference room.
