We worked in trios last week to clean the dirty playground water we collected! We used coffee filters, sand, cotton balls & rocks to filter out dirty water. We were amazed by how clean the water looked at the end. We annotated a diagram labelling our experiment! Well done P1.4 ⭐️
Thank you for all your junk materials. The pupils had a great afternoon sorting and building their shape robots last week.
We categorised every item into each shape: Cylinders, cubes, cuboids, spheres and cones. Anything we didn’t know was put back in the ‘we don’t know’ pile.
Some pupils wanted to work with a friend and others independently. Their creations were brilliant and they were able to engage in conversations about what 3D shape made up different parts of their robots! Some pupils went on to create lovely Lego robots during play. Well done P1.4!
What do you do when it rains? Most people stay inside, but not us! We went outside and watched as the heavy rain fell on Thursday. We looked to see where the rainwater was flowing, where it was collecting and where it went?
The pupils were fascinated about where it went next after flowing through the drain.
“It goes in the river.”
“It goes down the drain and down more drains and more drains and into the sea.”
“It goes into the sewer.”
I explained that a lot of our water is collected, cleaned and then comes out our taps. We watched a video about the Water Works and the process of water filtration!
We ran outside, collected a big tub of dirty water and created our own water filtration experiment. Pupils will have another chance to do this next week – photos to follow.
