Month: December 2022

The Banton Bairns had a great time making their own ‘moon dust’ last week. We mixed corn flour and baby oil to make our dust then we spread it out in a tray. Once this was done, it was time to make some craters! We dropped different sizes of rock from different heights and found that bigger rocks make bigger craters. We also found that dropping a rock from a higher height made the crater bigger too! Now we know why there are so many huge craters on the moon! 🌙

Primary 1/2 had a lot of fun this week when we learned all about going to the dentist. We learned about what happens during a visit to the dentist and about the people we might meet there. We even got to play at being dentists by creating our own imaginary dental surgeries with receptions, waiting rooms and dentists’ rooms 🦷 🍎
