Skittle Science
We did an experiment with Skittles. First we learned scientists need to be organised with equipment .
Next we put skittles around a plate. Then we covered the skittles with water.
Then we watched what happened. We discovered that skittles are made of sugar and they have all the same amount of sugar so the colours did not mix. We made a Skittle rainbow!
It is Autumn
The children were wondering what Seasons were so we decided to investigate! We are recording our findings in our Learning Book. We have found out a lot!
Little snapshot of our week. 😀
Maths Week
For Maths Week we were given the mathematician Leonhard Euler to research.He helped to discover some functions in mathematics.
We have been learning about the function of adding so we decided to make addition function machines.
We are not quite finished them yet but the children have enjoyed designing and creating their machines.p so far.

We have been learning about 2D shapes in class. We went on a shape hunt and are making shapes on the peg boards.
