Ms. Lavelle's Class

We are having great fun being engineers with our new resources during activity time. We are also using the tablets this month to work on our maths skills

We had a busy week investigating light and static electricity. We used a torch to investigate whether items were transparent or opaque and recorded our results. We learned how static electricity can be caused by things rubbing together. We rubbed a balloon on a woolly jumper and touched items such as paper, tissue paper, card and our hair! Finally, we are investigating the importance of washing our hands correctly. We are using bread to demonstrate this. We are continuing

We planted hyacinth and tulip bulbs last week. We look forward to watching these grow over the coming months. We are observing a hyacinth bulb growing in a jar and are surprised at how quickly roots have appeared. Nature is amazing.

Wishing all our school community a happy, safe mid term break. Happy Halloween.
