May the Force be with you

This week was Science week and it started off with a push and a pull as we investigated different everyday items that use a push or pull movement. In small groups we rotated around five activities. They were:
1. pushing rubber bands onto geoboards
2. a pulley system
3. pushing a ball
4. pulling blu tack
5. pushing blocks together

On Wednesday, we had a Science in the Van show. The Three Billy Goats Gruff used pushing, pulling and friction to move the Troll off the bridge to get to the other side.

On Friday, we had our very own Room Five Scientists show their science homework projects. We had a great range of experiments and information gathering. Well done!
