Miss McIntyre's Class

This week we read the story of 'The Gingerbread Man' and made a boat for him to cross the river to save him from being eaten by the fox! We explored floating and sinking, used ink and food colouring with pipettes on paper towelling to see how the water/ink ran, explored oobleck, used magnets to move paperclips in water, felt frozen hands and watched them melt, explored oil in bottles, painted with watercolours, and dissolved gingerbread men in water of different temperatures! We also read 'Mr Archimede's Bath' and tested out how many people it would take to make the water overflow like in the story after putting our hand in first. What a great week!
