Making Rocket Explosions in Room 5!
Room 5 have been exploring Space throughout term 1.
We really wanted to learn about rockets and how they took off. We decided to do a science experiment with alka seltzer, plastic film containers and some water.The rockets worked very very well and flew like a real spaceship!
We have written instructions for whoever would like to try it out!

Science Investigations in Room 5
Room 5 carried out a science investigation into what might affect the size of a crater when a meteorite hits a planet. They investigated a number of variables including the size, shape and weight of the meteorite and the surface landing. They presented their results to the class and found that:
– the heavier the meteorite, the bigger the crater produced
– the bigger the meteorite, the bigger the crater produced.
– the flattest shapes made the biggest craters and
– the softer the landing surface, the bigger the crater.
They are looking forward to carrying out their next investigation!
Living Eggs
For the past two weeks pupils at Lawmuir have been very excited taking care of the Living Eggs. We watched expectantly as they hatched and have enjoyed holding them and learning about their life cycle.
Here is some our learning.
