Our favourite part of science week was the animals. Our favourite animal was the meerkat because it was cute and furry.We also liked the broken vase investigation.We thought it was Mrs Hall and it was, but it was by accident.When you go to a crime scene you have to wear special clothes. You have to wear a white coat, special material shoes and gloves.And also a mask.We went to the year 1 and 2 blue area and we found Mrs Hall’s finger print on the glass that belong to Mrs Hall.

Also we put pop rocks in sparkling Water and lemonade to blow up a balloon. Some people helped in the project and some people took pictures. We also put mentoos in coke and tablets in the fizzy water and it exploded. We also made patterns with skittles in a bowl and added water.Then we played with something made of corn flour.It is solid and liquid.

Today we are going to tell you what we done on science week!
Mikael liked the balloon going up with the lemonade and the pop rocks in it.
Brunthan liked the detective project when they came to St Edwards.
Mikael mostly liked when we did experiments in the art room when we used the light for looking at boxes and mirrors
Emmanuel liked the absorbing balls.Our teacher put some tiny balls in a cup and put water in it. It turned bigger during the day.
On the 23rd of May,everyone in the class got to touch oblek (slime)

Who would have thought that a little cornflour and water would protect a raw egg from concrete?

Recently, we have been learning about how to classify animals using classification keys. We did such a good job that our teachers gave us the challenge to make a classification key for a group of liquorice allsorts.
You will be able to have a go at our classification keys on Thursday’s exhibition but here are some pictures showing us learning…

Today, in Year 4, we have been investigating how to inflate a balloon without using our breath. We had lots of ideas including using a balloon pump, filling it with water and putting popping candy inside the balloon with a fizzy drink.

To find out how we managed to inflate the balloons, come along to the science exhibition on Thursday in the hall after school…

Here are some pictures to get you thinking…
