January Fun!

1st Feb 2022

This month we had fun learning about frost, ice, freezing and melting.  We made a huge Jack Frost display by mixing paint to make shades of blue and using shiny materials for icicles.  Then we made icy, cold snowflakes.

We also put some water into a bowl with some toys and then set it into the freezer overnight.  In the morning the ice was frozen.  We put it on our tuff spot and used hammers to chip at the ice to get the toys.  While we were doing this we observed how the ice started to melt.

It would not be winter without some snow! Not only did we have fun experimenting and investigating to make fake snow but we also had fun outside in the real thing!

We have been learning about and investigating materials such as glass, plastic, metal, paper, wood and fabric.  We also talked about recycling and have been busy using our recycled items in our art area to build and construct. 

What a busy month it has been!
