Science week begins …..

East Linton Science Week got off to a great start today.  We had a fabulous range of different science activities going on in school.  P1 and P1/2 were involved in a selection of hands on science activities which included blowing up a volcano, digging up a dinosaur and making their own fossil.  P6 and P7 were involved in solving the crime of the century, the theft of the Olympic flame!!!  Using clues  left behind they had to analyse the evidence to find the culprit. P4/5 had an expert visitor who talked about how animals move and answered all their questions.  P2/3 were finding out about DNA using a kiwi,  they also designed  their own cars using plastic bottles and tested them on the skateboard ramps and then made some silly putty.  Thank you to everyone who came to school to  help us today – it was a busy but fantastic start to science week.

  1. Looks like everyone is having lots of fun this week and looking forward to seeing all your experiments at the Showcase on Friday.

  2. You looked like you were having lots of fun learning about science. A big thank you to Mrs Pentony for masterminding the events this week and to all our parents and friends who came (and are coming later this week) to help out.
