Primary 4 had a surprise visitor on Christmas Jumper Day.  Jon Davies from Think Science came to school to help us explore our senses.  We used our sense of smell to identify things that we couldn’t see and learned that our eyes are quite easy to fool by making our own thaumatropes.  We found out what happens to our sense of taste when we have no sense of smell and explored how sounds travel through the air.  To finish off, Jon blew us some special bubbles that we could hold in our hands without them popping; I think one or two of our boys and girls are hoping that Santa might bring us some of these special bubbles for Christmas!

Thank you Jon for you visit! We had a fantastic time learning with you!
