Super Science Week

This week was science week. We watched a video on a lamb giving birth and we had a sheet where we labelled different parts of the sheep’s body. – Ellis

I learned that sheep eat grass and they can do so because they have 4 stomachs to help them digest it. – Olivia-Rose

I learned that when sheep give birth the lamb needs to have 2 feet out first so that the lamb can be pulled out. – Lily-Anne

When the lamb comes out, it’s belly button has to be sprayed with iodine so that it doesn’t get infected. We also watched a video on cows and we had to label different parts of the body of the cow which the farmer needs to check to make sure the cow is healthy.  To check the cow’s temperature you need to stick a thermometer inside the cow’s bottom. – Arjun

After the cow poos you need to do the squish test.  To do this, stand on the poo and if it squishes, it is healthy. – Isaac

We did tests on ourselves to see if we were healthy. We checked our pulses, breathing rate and skin pinching. – Matthew

Today, we focused on optical illusions. Optical illusions are patterned pictures which can trick your mind. – Sophie

Have a look at our photos of our illusions!
