Big Maths has started in p4m and already the weekly scores are getting better.
Water has been an interesting topic. We have carried out scientific investigations to filter some extremely muddy water. To water in test tubes, we added a variety of household ingredients to investigate which things are soluble or insoluble, we then poured our solutions and mixtures into Petri dishes to investigate evaporation. We know that it is a UNICEF right to have clean water and after learning about a girl in Niger we created diary entries retelling a typical day and some of difficulties she faces when collecting water.
Golden Time is all set to get even better next week. We are going to join up with p4g and we have already signed up for our Golden Activities. The Wii and iPads were popular as was the craft table. Next week we will update the selection of activities and a few interesting ideas have been suggested.
Sounds like you are all very busy with your water experiments! I look forward to hearing all bout your new Golden Time system from Skye too! 🙂
