More magical markers.











More magic!!







Black magic

Today we did a magical experiment. We each had a piece of filter paper that had a line of black marker on it. We put it in a cup with a little bit of water. The water crept up the paper. Watch these movies to see what happened next!!

Jeet the Maths Magician



Today during maths Jeet practiced writing his numbers. We thought he was amazing because he wrote all of the numbers to 100. Anton said, "Mrs Keeley, why don't we take a photo and put it on the blog so everyone can see." I thought that was a terrific idea and so did the rest of Room 3. Well done Jeet. we think you are very clever!

Billowing Balloons

We have been learning about reactions. Miss de Lautour helped us to do an experiment that showed us what happened when we mixed vinegar and baking soda in a bottle with a balloon on the top. We tested different amounts of vinegar to see what would happen. Watch the videos to see what happened.
