SUPER SWIFTS LOVE SCIENCE!

Guess what? Today, the SUPER SWIFT class were given the task of creating a micro-habitat for a chosen mini-beast! The mini-beasts were... woodlouse, worm, shield bug, slug/snail, spider and a lady bird.  They thought carefully about the shelter of their homes and the environment around it.  It was FUN! Take a sneak peak at what they created below...

Well done SUPER SWIFTS! The mini-beasts will really appreciate the homes that you have created :) 

 

States of Matter investigation

Year 4 have been learning about the air around us and types of common gases.
We have been investigating whether carbon dioxide is heavier or lighter than air.
First we needed to make some CO2...

 

Result: Co2 is much heavier than 'air' or helium
