Science

Make a Rainbow

To make an M&M science rainbow, you will need the following materials:

  • M&Ms
  • Plate
  • Water

I started by putting some M&Ms onto a plate.

My kids arranged the M&Ms in a large circle at the outside edge of the plate.

It’s a bit hard to see in the picture below, but the next step is to gently add enough water to the middle of the plate until the water is touching all of the M&Ms. Be careful not to add the water too roughly or it will cause some of the M&Ms to move out of the circle.

Then just watch. Over the next few minutes, a beautiful rainbow will form right before your eyes!

Story

Hairy Maclary from Donaldson’s Dairy

Hairy Maclary’s friends join him for a walk until, with a sudden yowl, a wail and a howl, they all run off. What could have caused such a scatter of paws?

 

Literacy

Letter sounds and letter blending.

Another activity that introduces the letters by name and sound. Blending the letters sounds together to make nonsense words, all part of early reading skills.

Have a great day everyone and remember lunches are available at the school from 12 noon to 1.30PM.

Numeracy

Pattern

This is a fun activity that you can do indoors or out all you need to do is collect some loose part materials weather it is beads, gems, leaves or stones and make your very own patterns or shape creations.
