Term Two



-------------------------------------------------------
SCIENCE TIME
Get your child to explain to you what we did in this experiment



We were inspired by this experiment to see what other materials could show the capillary action.

Bread                                                        Cardboard
Painted paper                                             toilet paper


Our science became art
We made bows and other things with the dyed paper towel!

Helping Hands

We have been doing an inquiry unit this term inquiring about who helps us at home? Who do we help? Who helps us at school? Who helps us in the community? We have found out lots.
One of the activities we did was come up with some personalised questions for Mr Gilmore, Mr Moss, Mrs Pattersen and Mrs Bartosh about what we think they do during the day: They all responded via video or a tour and told us what they really did!
 
We got to go in BOTH of Mr Moss' sheds!
*Mrs Bartosh sent us some BRILLIANT VIDEOS!
*We spoke with Mrs Pattersen in the Library.

We made our very own HATS!

We had to switch them and add decorations. Our parents and grandparents came to help us out. Our heads are going to be nice and warm during winter.
