Our school wide science focus this term is 'Thinking like a
Scientist". Through this the students are encouraged to develop
their own curiosity and generate/ask their own questions with the experiments
we do.
This week we carried out an experiment where we placed wooden
skewers through blown up balloons. Many thought this was impossible.
We had great fun and plenty of popping balloons as we rose to the challenge.
Many students were successful and well done to Kennedy who managed to get over 10
skewers through her balloon before it began to deflate.
We had many
questions and had a great class discussion about our thoughts and ideas.
Below
is a YouTube clip explaining the science we discovered and also a few photos of our
fun!
