Frosty Feet

What a busy few weeks. The students have been writing about freezing their toes off on icy grass. Holly's amazing writing is below.


                     
“Do I have too?” moaned Ella.
It was one of the coldest, most horribliest and most FREEZING Thursday mornings and Room6 went to Antarctica. Yay! You are probably asking yourself why we did go outside in the FREEZING… FREEZING… FREEZING cold. It was because Mr C was being mean.
On the cold grass everyone was jumping up and down like they were getting eaten by105 sharks.
“ Ha! Ha! Ok, everyone go inside and warm your little feet up,” laughed Mr C, “Ha! ha!”
“Well that wasn’t sooooo bad,” murmured Ella to her friend Holly as they limped back into class.
I thought it was time for a nice bath.

Silly Apple Bites

Last Friday, Room 6 made these funny fruit and seed critters. Here is the link to try them yourselves.

When they finished making them they had to write an explanation to explain how the silly apple bites were made.






What do you think?

 Faster than a speeding bullet?

Today Room 6 investigated how sound travels through air. George and Emily attempted to capture the sound of the clapper passing through a gas (the air) but it was traveling too fast. Ask a student from Room 6 what they did. Great science Room 6!
Yesterday, the whole school participated in a Tug-of-War.
Of course the mighty Green House triumphed!
Here are some pictures from the event.

Today we have been experimenting and learning about friction.
Cars went down a ramp onto a range of different surfaces like tinfoil, carpet, lino, lunch-wrap and rubbish bags, to find out which surface provided the most friction.
Have a look at our photos of the scientists in action.






Lachie was testing a Mazda 323 and George tested a Lambeg...Lanbor.... a Morris Minor.

The crumpled tinfoil provided the most friction. So far we have learned about; Friction, Levers and Light.

How cold is it? Room 6 were challenged to go outside in bare feet and stand on the icy ground.

Lots of moaning and groaning, mumbling and grumbling but we did it!

Wait for the fantastic art and writing to come!!!!!!!!!
