A special project

We are very lucky in Te Pihinga to have some wonderful adults helping out. We have our wonderful Judy, Connor's Ma, who comes in 3 times a week to help us and other classes with our Steps programme. And now we have Paul, Mrs S's Dad, who is coming in to work on a special project with some boys. 

Here are some photos from the last few days. I wonder if you can work out what they are creating?

What happens when Coke & Mentos meet?

Today for writing we did something a bit different. We got to watch a science experiment. We learnt a new word called 'hypothesis'. This means that we have to think about what might happen, a prediction. Each of us wrote our prediction. Some of us thought things might explode, some of us thought the coke might catch on fire or turn to ice. Some of us wondered if the coke might change colour. 

So we went outside to see what happened. Check out our video.
