Amazing Science: How to make soap from recycled oil

Today we’ve made soap from recycled oil! This laboratory experiment is part of our Polar Bear Project.
Students from the 1st year of A levels have shown us how to make soap.
This is their recipe:
250 g of recycled oil
250 ml H2O
5 g salt
35 g caustic soda
some drops of lavender water
colourant

It has been so amazing!
Look at the pictures.





It’s story time: FATHER CHRISTMAS

Today we’ve watched the story FATHER CHRISTMAS by Raymond Briggs.
We’ve joined Father Christmas getting ready for his busiest day of the year, Christmas Eve preparing
his Christmas deliveries, feeding his reindeer and finally taking flight into the snowy night.

Concave & convex in Science

In Science K4 we investigated spoons. They are like mirrors. The front of the spoon is concave and the back is convex.
We drew ourselves upside down looking at the front of the spoon. Have a look at the pics!






BUILDING A BALLOON ROCKET

In K5 Science we have built a balloon rocket. We’ve had so much fun! Here are the instructions:
-Thread one end of the string through the straw
-Tie each end of the string between two solid supports such as a chair, table leg or door knob, making sure it is strung tightly.
-Blow up the balloon but do not tie it.
-Holding the opening of the balloon closed with your fingers, tape one side of the balloon to the straw so that it hangs horizontally below the string.
-Get ready for launch and let the end of the balloon go. Watch as the air escapes and sends your balloon rocketing across the string track!
READY STEADY GO,


Els Sols i les Piruletes de les emocions

Hola famílies!

Des de l’inici del curs, els sols estem coneixent l’alegria i la tristesa i és per això que hem creat la piruleta de les emocions amb un personatge diferent: una girafa!

Durant els següents dies, els sols aniran portant a casa la seva piruleta de l’alegria i la tristesa per poder jugar a imitar l’emoció.

Aquí teniu una mostra d’un grupet dels sols que avui ha acabat la seva piruleta!

La piscina de les Estrelles

Els nens i nenes de P4 ja han acabat les sessions de piscina. Han fet una evolució espectacular i han pogut gaudir de les activitats en el medi aquàtic. A partir de la setmana vinent tornem a fer “psico”.

HEM ALLIBERAT ELS CARGOLS

Després de tenir, forces dies, cargols en una cargolera els Sols els hem anat a alliberar al bosc. Ens han servit per aprendre moltes coses i fins i tot hem vist com criaven. Tenir un ésser viu a l’aula provoca accions educatives a on sorgeixen aprenentatges molt vivencials i significatius. Un cop hem cuidat els cargols uns dies, calia deixar-los en el seu hàbitat natural per tal que segueixin el seu curs en llibertat.
