As part of our expeditionary learning this week, we learnt about dissolving and the science behind it ⚗️👨🏻🔬👩🏻🔬We learnt lots of scientific keywords 🧠 If a soluble solute (like coffee) is added to a solvent (like H2o) it will dissolve and create a solution, however if a solute is insoluble, like sand, it will create a mixture. We even went further to experiment different conditions with the rate a solute would dissolve at. We found hot water and movement was the best condition to dissolve the coffee the fastest. Crew Mcloughlins classroom certainly smelled lovely after this experiment ☕️

Maths v’s PE!
Today 2we had a super fun PE lesson! Coach Luke had planned lots of maths problems for us to solve as crews and set up PE activities for us to work through in order to complete our tasks! We were given a number problem to solve, used our maths skills to solve it, bounced the basketball to the hoop, scored, and then we had to find the answer to our problem on the envelope to get the next clue. We worked really hard to solve these and got really smart!
Crew MI Maths
Today the children got to complete more active maths activities. Children took part in the activities they didn’t complete yesterday. Some visited Crew MI’s money shop and some completed a series of activities in the hall.
Here children are throwing tennis balls into place value boxes then working out the number. Children also worked on their recall of times tables as well as mental addition and subtraction.
We look forward to more activities tomorrow!
