We were delighted to win the star line for December! We worked really hard to win the star. Everyday we tried our best to line up quickly, quietly and stay in a straight line. Our hard work paid off and we won the most stars for December. Here we are pictured after winning the star!

Materials

We have been learning about materials. We identified and named everyday materials. Then we worked as scientists to investigate the properties of materials. We looked at and felt the materials to decide if they were strong, hard, soft, rough, smooth, transparent, translucent or opaque. We filled in a table with our findings.

Hibernation and Migration

In Science we have been learning about animals that hibernate and migrate. We used clay to make some animals such as turtles, whales and bears. Then we made their migration or hibernation habitat. Did you know that some turtles hibernate? Can you spot our turtles?
Before animals go into hibernation, many get ready by eating extra food. They store this as fat in their bodies, which helps to keep them alive during the winter. We learned that when animals are hibernating, their body temperature drops and their breathing slows down. Can you see some of our hibernating animals?
Some of us made whales as they migrate to warmer oceans. Can you spot the whales?

Science Week 12th - 16th november 2018

We worked in groups to design a safety jacket for an egg. Then we had fun testing our jackets! Most of our eggs survived but some were not so lucky. We found out that the eggs needed to secured within the jacket to survive the drop.
