This week we have begun our new topic:
WATER
We have been thinking about all of the things we use water for and why it is so precious.
We tasted different types of water and tried to guess the differences between still, sparkling, flavoured and tap water.
We found out about water in developing countries and talked about how we helped to raise money for these countries to have fresh water during Comic Relief. We talked about when we have visited other countries and been asked not to drink their tap water.
We compared pictures of water from developing countries and thought about how they would feel with no clean water-we think we are very lucky!
We tried different ways to filter water with Mrs Brookes-we found that a coffee filter was the best way to get the water clean as the seive let too many stones through.
We also had fun finding out how much water different things can hold. We measure a saucepan, kettle and a cup! Do you know how much liquid they can hold?
