Weeeeeeek 4!

This week we finished our King Kong morning story and had a little practice debate about the hero and the villain in the story. We started reading a fun book called (the Horrible) Mr Gum.

Our little plants enjoyed all the rain. We built frames for the builds to climb up and the very next day we found that one of the peas had already grabbed on. We thought this was so cool! How does it know!?!


During Science we talked about balanced and unbalanced forces. The students worked in groups to prepare and present objects to demonstrate this.













Balanced

 Unbalanced. Ahhhhhh! Watch out!



We also carried out our first experiment to test the friction of different string tracks for little balloon rockets. As most of us predicted, the wire had less friction compared to the wool and string. Some students even pointed out that maybe string thickness affected the result. Great thinking!
