Our Maths and Scientific Quest
In maths we made shields using our knowledge of symmetry.
We learnt how to sort different materials out which included: glitter, rice, pasta, gems, buttons, hundreds and thousands, marbles, paperclips and bells. We used sieving, magnets, and scoops.
We investigated invisible ink and then used the best to make maps.
We investigated how absorbent different materials were to soak up water from an oasis.
We learnt how to melt ice the quickest without force to retrieve our gems.
Everyone really enjoyed this quest!
