Chromatography

For science this term we have been learning about 
chromatography. 
Chromatography means colour writing. 
We have done one experiment with  smartie and water. We put the smartie on filter paper and dropped small 
drops of water on our smartie.Then we got either a 
pebble or an oompa, the same colour as the smartie and saw if the oompas or pebbles did the same thing that thesmarties did.
The (oompa, smartie or pebbles)  either blended differently or stayed the same colour.

Spooky

Thunder, lightning, gloom and doom.

Scary, chatter in the night.

Freaky, chuckle darkened room

Close your eyes and grab on tight!

Breaking steps and creaking floors.

Screaming witches and snarling bats.

Ghosts that slime up through the toilet.

Wriggling snakes and flapping cats.

A skeleton with white bones.

Starts following us –He’s running fast!

Right now count Dracula is falling in.

Quick crack the floor! Phew- Safe at last!

Let’s line up for another two!

That haunted house is really awesome fun.

Cats And Dogs

Cats can catch mice 
Wherever they go,
But dogs can't catch rabbits
They're far to slow!!!


They don't chase crocodiles                                                                         
That lie by the sea,
And can't catch monkeys 
witch sleep in the trees!!!


They should both stay at
Home and lie by the heaters,
Or both go to hide
And dream they are cheetahs!!!

What is a Scientist?

This is our big science question. Today we started a WHOLE WEEK of science! We want to discover what a scientist is. Without talking to anybody else, we drew a picture of what we thought a scientist looked like, and wrote about what a scientist does.

Today we started with a virtual plane trip to Antarctica! We had to get in groups of three, then went outside to get our virtual clothes to wear on the big trip. We were "specially selected scientists" about to go to Antarctica for the summer. We put our lugguge in the hold (really our class ramp rails)... then entered the plane (that used to be our classroom!) MurRen checked our passports at the door. We had to sit down and put our seatbelts on. Just as we were about to take off, Mrs Tooley came in (through our plane door!) She invited 3 real life visitors to our school from China. Now the plane was quite full, but then PutLea from Room 2 ALSO came into our plane... so we invited her to come with us. She wanted to study penguins! While we were on the "plane", we looked at photos on the whiteboard of Antarctica and McMurdo Base. After lunch we watched a movie about scientists at Antarctica, then we discussed our ideas, and recorded them in our topic book.

Pictures will come tomorrow, but here is the website with interesting videos and photos to look at: http://www.coolantarctica.com - you should take a look yourself!

I found today quite interesting. I liked going to Antarctica!
