Science Week Fun in Ms. Brennan’s 4th Class
We had great fun this week for Science Week. We did lots of experiments and completed many fun STEM activities.
We caused a chemical reaction by pouring Mentos into a bottle of Coke, creating an explosion.
We dissolved Skittles using warm water. The warm water caused the sugar and food colouring to dissolve which created a rainbow of colours.
We also created a moving car using a motor and electricity circuits.
Fire Safety Week
Our pupils enjoyed a visit from the Dublin Fire Brigade during fire safety week. The children were lucky enough to get the opportunity to learn about all the equipment inside the fire truck and even got the chance to use the water hose! Thank you to the wonderful firemen who took time to visit us. Also a big congratulations to the winners of our Fire safety poster competition!
The Ancient Egyptians
Here are some of our 4th class pupils displaying their fantastic projects that they completed on ‘The Ancient Egyptians’. We enjoyed travelling back in history to learn about what life was like in ancient Egypt.
Fun with Science in Ms. Dohertys 4th Class
In 4th class, we are learning about solids, liquids and gases. We completed the ‘Fizzy Balloon’ experiment to show how mixing a solid with a liquid can create a gas.
Playground Games
Many thanks to the volunteers from Colgate who painted our playground games and thanks to Barnardos for organising this. Our children are already enjoying playing in these lovely bright games.
