Science Week

November 8th -15th is Science Week and Third and Fourth Class have been very busy. We were learning all about friction and experimenting to see which surfaces caused the most amount of friction and slowed down our race car.  We also experimented with air pressure and made a balloon rocket.
On Thursday we took part in a table quiz.  There were 8 rounds with 6 questions each.  We had great fun answering all the questions and learned lots of new information too.  Well done to the winning team pictured below.

Here are some new facts that we learned during Science Week:
A geologist is a person who studies all about rocks.A female elephant is called a cow.
Bronze is made from copper and tin.Rabbits are born blind.A filament is a wire found inside a light bulb.Here is a link to our balloon rocket experiment - https://sciencebob.com/make-a-balloon-rocket/
