Numeracy isn’t all worksheets and textbooks.Working with concrete materials can help to deepen understanding and consolidate learning. Calculations don’t always need to be done on paper either!
In January P4-7 made lava lamps with Miss Clubb the student teacher. Using oil, water, food colouring and bicarbonate of Soda (an alka seltzer tablet) they recreated the “popular” 70s accessory. As well as having lots of fun the children also learnt about how carbon dioxide, released from the bicarbonate, behaved in the oil/water mix.
P4-7 decided to make themselves Superhero masks. Can you figure out what their superpowers might be?
