Crazy Christmas Science: It's SNOWING... in Class 5

We had fun this morning when it snowed in Class 5! We enjoyed it so much we visited other classes to show them our experiment.



Mr Short writes: it was interesting today, whilst setting up our experiment I asked the children to draw a picture of a scientist. Without exception every child drew a picture of a middle aged man, with crazy hair and glasses - and no, it wasn't me! We discussed reasons for not drawing a picture of a woman or someone younger. We decided that we shouldn't be put off science or anything else that people might not expect us to do because of our age and gender.

Decorations

This week the children used the laptops to design their own Christmas paper, adding images and text however they saw fit. Next, they cut these designs into strips and made paper chains that stretched around the room. Other designs with larger images were used to create lanterns as presents for other classes. I was left to hang the rest as instructed! The children had complete control and Christmas in Class 5 feels very personal.
