Bird watching

On Monday, Tom the birdwatcher came to our class.  He did lots of activities with us.  We made origami birds, drew birds and learnt about birds from around the world and in Ireland.  We had a very enjoyable afternoon and hope that when the weather gets better, Tom will be able to bring us out bird watching.

Science week 2011

We did lots of experiments during science week.  We did colour mixing and made colour spinners. We investigated if wax is water proof.  We made our own soap and even made a volcano!  We were very lucky to have a "Bubble Magic" show visit our school.

We are taking part in the Junior Lego League this year.  We can't wait to start on our own projects and inventions.  This years challenge is called "Snack Attack!"  Check out the website to see what we will be doing:

Science

Healthy Teeth experiment
In science we have been learning about our bodies. We did an experiment to show how bad fizzy drinks are for your teeth. We put one egg in water and another in coca cola. The egg in the coke went brown and dirty. It took a lot of brushing to get it clean. The egg in the water was really clean and bright.

Getting ready for Halloween

We have started getting ready for Halloween. This week we put up decorations and made pumpkins. Next week we are going to make ghosts and Halloween cards. We will also be reading lots of spooky stories and writing our own yucky spells!! HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!
