Science Week - Materials

We looked at different materials and sorted them into natural and man-made.  We investigated which materials would float or sink. Nobody predicted all of them correctly but Oliver Needs only guessed one wrong.

Science Week - Cheese

We made our own cheese by investigating the separation of milk using an acid.  We added lemon juice to milk and watched it curdle. Then we put it in a mold and let it drain.  Then we took it out of the mould and had made Ricotta Cheese.  We enjoyed eating it on crackers.


Science Week - Moving Vehicles


We designed and made moving vehicles using a variety of materials.  We worked individually or in pairs.  We had a race to see which vehicle went the furthest.  Daniel Hearn's car won the race.
