Room 6 girls singing group

Three girls from Room 6 practised for many days to sing this song in assembly.  All of Room 6 were very proud of them, to have the courage to perform in front of the whole school.  Well done girls.

Assembly Presentation - Book Facts

We presented our Book Fact posters in assembly.  Miss Rhodes recorded our presentation.

Telling the time

This week, room 6 have been practising telling the time.  They have been focusing on half past the hour and elapsed time.  You could use this link at home to play the games to help you practise.

Brainiac Science Abuse - Popcorn Popping In Slow Motion

 Today we have been investigating what happens if we heat a piece of corn.  We found out that the corn turns inside out, because of the heat and the moisture that is trying to escape. The best bit about our experiment was eating the popcorn!

Ooblek

Last week, we used cornflour and water to make ooblek.  We examined what happened when we stirred the mixture quickly & slowly, when we squeezed the mixture, when we let it drip through our fingers.  It was a really strange experience.  We found out that it was all because of the shape molecules that the corn flour is made from - it is a bit like quicksand! The faster or harder you mix the liquid, the shape of the molecules, means that the liquid 'locks up' and turns into a solid.

This was such a fun experiment! And definitely one that you can try at home - but outside!

books, books, books

Room 6 have been reading crazy this year! Miss Rhodes found a fun game to play to celebrate books....

Pick up the nearest book to you.
Turn to page 52.
Find the 5th sentence and write it down.
Don't write the title of the book down.

When we visited our school library today, we did this.  Below are some of the sentences we found. Can you guess which book they are from?
