Primary 2b have had a very busy week this week. There has been lots of independent learning happening in our atrium.
Some of the boys and girls built an amazing spaceship using the bricks and wooden planks.
In science this week we were learning about the states of water. We learned that water can come in 3 different states, solid, liquid and solid. We conducted a range of experiments to test how water can change from a solid into a liquid. We discovered that salt lowers the melting temperature of ice as it melted quicker than the ice without anything on it. We also discovered that the boiling water melted the ice much faster than hot air.
We then sorted pictures of water in different forms into solid, liquid and gas.
After that we watched the process of evaporation and condensation. Miss McFlynn boiled the melted ice in the kettle. We knew it was boiling when the steam started to come out of the top. Miss McFlynn then held a mirror over the steam and we watched at the steam cooled down it turned back into a liquid.
This week we have also been learning how to insert an image from the web into google doc. Previously we have learned how to insert aa picture from the camera and insert a drawing.
Today we were very lucky to have experienced a little bit of Taekwondo. The boys and girls loved every minute of it as you can see below. All pupils have been issued with a leaflet which provides you with further information about the club on offer. Thank you to Hazel for coming.
Finally as today was world thinking day here are some of our pupils proudly showing off their uniform.
