At first we found it a little bit tricky as we has to focus the lens but we soon got the hang of it and had fun exploring and looking more \u00a0closely in our Discovery area.<\/p>\n

This book tells the story of a girl who has lots of questions and always wonders how things work and why. We watched her story on our Promethium board to help tell us more about how \u00a0Ada \u00a0the scientist \u00a0investigates things.<\/p>\n Do you have questions about how things work?

In our science area \u00a0during a group discussion we used a mind map to\u00a0 record what we already know \u00a0and knowledge we could share with each other.
