Here we are looking at materials in science. We are making our own paper. Everyone tore up the paper from our paper bin into tiny pieces, then we  added them to a pot of warm water and mushed the paper up. It turned into pulp. We then made our own paper and we are going to use it as a painting canvas when it isn’t dry…..we will photograph our final results.

Zoo lab came to visit us this week. Some very interesting creatures were introduced to us… we loved it!

At library time, we read a book by one of our favourite authors,  Nick Sharratt. It was very, very funny and we were all giggling and laughing. We read it again it was so much fun. You might have seen our tweet about it, Nick Sharratt did and he sen5 us a reply! We loooove books. We are all still borrowing books from our class library and everyone has their favourites.

In science we have been exploring materials. We made clay bowls to see how the clay could be changed by using a force, we painted them and gave them to our mum for Valentine’s Day.

We also used a variety of materials to create a house. We thought they were brilliant, but would not keep the wind or rain out!
