Celery investigation

Our classroom is starting to look like a greenhouse! Today we set up another experiment to see how water travels through the stem of a plant. We used celery and water with food colouring – let’s see what will happen!

Exciting experiments

In Fox class we have changed the conditions for some of our plants, to test what happens when we take away water, sunlight, nutrients or carbon dioxide. We will be looking at how the plants grow over the next few weeks and the children have made some very good predictions… I wonder if you will be correct!

Clay creations

Today, Fox class made their own clay pots, using the coil method from the Bronze Age. The children worked very well at making sure their pots were strong and sturdy. Well done!
