Year 2
Handa's Surprise!
This term we have read the story of Handa's Surprise.
We enjoyed retelling the story of how Handa lost her fruit on her journey to see her friend. We investigated what would affect how the fruits would fall out of Handa's basket by learning about gravity and friction. We also investigated which surface the fruit would roll furthest on.
We also enjoyed making our own fruit drinks and drawing the different types of fruits; mango, guava, tangerine, banana, passionfruit, pineapple and avocado.
