Picnic this week

We are hoping to go on our syndicate picnic on Thursday. We are hoping the weather will hold and be nice and sunny.

Room 8 made volcanoes for a science project. We made the volcanoes in the T.I.S Studio. To make the volcanoes we used baking soda, vinegar, plastic bottles, plastic spoons and bowls, red food colouring and dish washing liquid. We put tarpaulin in the centre of the room and covered with newspaper, then in groups of three or four we created the volcanoes.

We had a lot of fun and watching them erupt was really cool!

Room 8 2012, week 4


We have started the year with a hiss and a roar and are getting to know each other really well.

Each week we complete a technology challenge where we work in teams to create something. One week we had to use newspaper to build a bridge capable of holding a dictionary, another week we had to build a newspaper raft which could float on water with a load of plastic bricks.

Here is one of our bridges.
