Nursery - Science Week

This week in nursery we have started learning about the space. 

We made rockets using junk modelling, we painted rockets and made them out of big and small construction. We have learnt about planets, the Moon and the Sun, we have been exploring the materials and what happens to them when placed in the water. 

We wondered whether materials would float or sink, whether they would dissolve in water and change their shape. We did experiment of 'shooting starts' in which children mixed water with oil and food colouring an observed what was happening. 

The children also mixed the cornflour and water to make the gloop and happily explored its consistency.
