TIE DYED MILK - SCIENCE

We had a blast at our Science opt in workshop today. 

Adding food colouring to milk looks great.  

But look at what happens when Shyloh adds dish liquid to the milk. 
The colours all move around and create some amazing patterns.

 

You could try this at home!

STATIC ELECTRICITY - SCIENCE

Our static electricity Science opt-in created a lot of interest and fun today.  Check it out!

We borrowed LC 14's Plasma Ball.  We thought it was fascinating when we touched the ball.  The lights went towards our hands!  It was pretty cool!

  

 

This is how it works...

DINOSAURS!

Quinn G, Zachary and Oliver W presented their Dinosaur challenge to us.  We had to make or do something based on dinosaurs.  They came up with the Success Criteria for us and told us how we will know if we are successful.

First we WONDERed what we could do or make about Dinosaurs and then we went into the EXPLORE phase of Te Ako Ritenga.

We had to attend the Checkpoint REFLECT station so that we could prove that we were ready to move to ACT

Then we planned what we were going to make in the ACT part of our challenge.

                                       


 The final stage of our Inquiry process, is REFLECT.  This is were we stop and check if we have met all the success criteria.  We had a big sharing session in the afternoon and everyone got to show off their fabulous creations.
