Scientific Friday - Making Sime

 

On Friday Scientist Pryde came to Room 7 and we did chemistry by making slime. Chemistry is putting two or more ingredients together to make a whole new thing. We used food colouring, glue, borax and water to make slime but it didn't work. We are not 100% sure why it didn't work but we think it is because the ingredients were out of date. Have you got any good slime recipes that we could try?

Scientific Friday - CREATE a robot, spaceship or alien.

Every Friday Room 2 participates in Scientific Friday. Last Friday we used recycled materials to build and create either a robot, spaceship/rocket ship or an alien. Each student got complete autonomy over their creation, using both recycled objects from home and around the school. Plenty of learning took place. We learnt just how hard it can be to cut or glue certain objects, to share materials or take turns on the hot glue gun. Wonderful pieces of writing followed. Wonder what we will do next Friday.
