Maths & Art Mash-up!


We brought maths into our art by creating pictures using 2-D shapes. We created lots of different pictures such as rockets, robots, people, volcanoes, helicopters, snowmen & animals! It was great fun! Check out our work below.

Mad Scientists!

To celebrate science week we had an afternoon of science in the classroom today. First we had to examine 4 samples of ice & describe how they looked, felt & tasted. Then based on the results we had to try to figure out what the ice was made from. We concluded that they were made using lemon, salt, sugar & water. 






Next we made lava lamps using oil, water, food colouring & an alka-selzer tablet. They looked really cool! 







While all this was going on we even had time to test out our construction skills using cocktails sticks & play dough! 




What a busy afternoon!
