Our Colour Changing Flowers Experiment

Image
We put some water and dye in some jars. The dye was green, blue and red. We put a flower in each jar. We cut the stems of 2 flowers and put half in the red and blue, and half in the blue and green. We predicted what would happen. We all thought the flowers would change colour. And they did! For the spilt stems some of us thought the flowers might change to half one colour and half the other!  That was what happened.  Some of us thought the colours might mix and the flower might go purple (red and blue mixed) or ??? (green and blue mixed).  This was what happened as well!  We checked and green and blue mixed makes cian (a blue-green colour).  We decided it would be better to call this 'bleen' or 'grue' like in a book some of us have read! 

Monet Bridge Art

 We created these amazing pieces of art with a buddy in the style of Monet using tape (which we removed afterwards) to create the bridges, and then lots and lots and LOTS of finger prints!  We think they look awesome!

Problem Solving

Image
  We do some impressive Problem Solving with our Maths Buddies and really enjoy working with them in a variety of ways to solve problems.  These ones are based on the 3 Billy Goats Gruff.  We are working hard to show how we get an answer rather than just 'knowing' the answer!                                   

It's been a busy time in Room 9

We hope you enjoying seeing some of the things we have been up to in the last 2 weeks.   If the video isn't appearing try this  link !
