STEM

This Term students have been busy exploring chemistry. Check out what students have been up to in STEM!

• The Grade prep students have had lots of fun making jelly. 
• Exploring mixtures will be the focus of the 1/2 classes. They will explore mixtures by making muffins. 
• Grade 3/4 students have been looking at reversible change. We have melted chocolate and watch it turn back into a solid state. 
• Tie dying a fabric design will be the focus of the Grade 5/6 students this week. I can’t wait to see all their designs come to life. 

STEM Question of the fortnight

These questions will not be compulsory, but will be a bit of fun and a challenge for students. Students can write their answer on a piece of paper and place it in the appropriate box inside the STEM room. Prep- 2 will place it in the box labelled P-2 and Grades 3-6 in the box labelled 3-6. At the end of the week Miss Middlin will do a lucky dip and select one student from Prep- 2 and one from Grades 3-6 who will receive a small science related prize. 

This week's question can be found below:

Prep- 2 - What is a mixture?  

Grade 3-6 - What does reversible change mean?

Kind regards, 

Miss Middlin
