Here is some of our learning in our own voice

Water experiments with Sally

Water experiments with Sally



Sally told us when we heat water it turns into gas. We saw the gas coming out of the kettle when the water boiled. We know that water can be gas, liquid or solid.


The container with the water makes our finger look fat, the container without water makes our finger look normal. 

When we put the arrow pointing to the right the water made it point to the left. Sally used a torch and mirror to show us how water bends the light.



We had a good time with Sally doing water experiments. We hope she comes back and teaches us more about science.

The Life Education Caravan

Guess where we went today.

Room One went to the Life Education Caravan today. We learnt that we get energy from the food that we eat.


We learnt that:         protein makes our muscles strong 
                                 dairy makes our bones strong
                                 grains give us energy

We looked at the bones, the heart and the brain inside the body.
Bones give us shape, muscles help us pick up stuff and help us move. If we don't eat the right food our muscles and bones won't work properly.  If we eat too much sugar our teeth will get stinky and rotten, we will get so fat and our heart will have to work very hard.

Good food like fruit and vegetables, bread and proteins will make us health and strong. We should drink more than 5 glasses of water a day.
