This week during our What’s the matter? science mini topic, Year 2 had an interesting investigation to carry out from Mr Vango.
Throughout the investigation, we used lots of science skills.
Starting with questioning, considering what equipment we’d need and the method for the investigation, we then focused on predicting which material would be the best for the tent. We recognised that predicting is a skill we also use in reading. We were then ready to get testing. Using observation skills was key to our investigation so we could make a conclusion about the materials.
Ask your child what material they concluded was the best one to use for the tent.
Well done to Vedant who realised that to make the test fair we would need to add the same amount of water from the syringe when testing each material.
