Fossil work with R15

We are working on our topic with R.15 this term.   In these photos we are researching questions about fossils and digging for fossils...

Digging for fossils...carefully!

We used special tools to scrap away the hard material...

Whats that?   A skeleton....?

Science!

Skittle Observation

We placed different coloured skittles into a bowl of shallow water and watched carefully....

Scroll down for pictures and some videos!!

 We observed closely as the colours started to spread...

We had questions....why did some colours spread more than others??

And, was that sugar floating on the surface??

Surveys

We've been learning how to do a survey.  We gathered our data over four days and presented it on a graph.  We were looking at the different types of birds around our school. 

Be A Scientist

We've been talking about what scientists do...

They look, they ask questions, they touch, listen and find out....

This is our Science Table.  We are looking at cicadas.

For maths we are recording the types and amounts of birds in our playground
