Creating Craters

This week in expedition we have been scientists and conducted an experiment all about how craters are formed.

To start we wrote a method and equipment list. Then we made a prediction about what we thought might happen. Finally is was time to conduct our experiment.

We then used our results to produce a line graph.

Exploring the water cycle

In our expedition lesson, we have investigated how water travels around the world. We found out that the continuous movement of water around the Earth is called the water cycle. The four main stages of the water cycle are evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection. We set up an experiment to see how the water cycle works. We can’t wait to see if evaporation and condensation happen!

First and Second draft

As with any piece of art work, it’s essential that we have time to draft and redraft our work. By critiquing and reworking, then that’s when improvements can be made to the piece. It was lovely to see the children take on board feedback so that they could improve their second draft.
