Ensure that you outline the category that you selected, what you learned, and possible implementation within the classroom. en-us 2021-09-02 01:29:43 UTC 2021-09-13 00:10:43 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1716534365 2021-09-04 11:18:39 UTC https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1716534365 https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1716998331 I observed a variety of birds and their nests by playing 'Elinor Wonders Why - Watch the Birdy' (PBS Kids). It reinforced with me that different types of birds use different materials to construct their nests, which provide a place to keep their eggs. ]]> 2021-09-05 02:18:42 UTC https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1716998331 https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1717183287 I learnt about how there will be a chain reaction, which teachers about force and tension. 

In the class you could implement this as an investigative task which after the kids make a  craft stick chain reaction to see how long your chain is. Once they make it they create make enquiry question and investigate them using the internet as a resource. ]]> 2021-09-05 07:00:02 UTC https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1717183287 https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1717259804 Currents under the water were impacted by heat and salt. The heat made the current move upwards to the surface.]]> 2021-09-05 08:48:23 UTC https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1717259804 https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1717319173 I just learnt that you can walk and put your entire body weight through cartons of eggs, due to the shape of the egg it gives you great strength because the pressure applied to the top by the feet feeds pressure through the evenly, so it does not crack. I knew that if you try to squeeze and egg it would not break but I thought walking over eggs would definetly crack them, that's awesome!]]> 2021-09-05 10:13:10 UTC https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1717319173 https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1717941645 I leant about how tug of war requires both friction and mass. 

In a classroom you can teach the student through playing a game of tug a war and challenging them by mixing up the teams for different weight balance. ]]> 2021-09-06 00:36:57 UTC https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1717941645 https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1717961008 I learnt different ways that a rope can be pulled and how they create Friction and Mass. 

Throughout a science fun day at school for students, teachers can implement friction and mass when conducting a competition amongst students. ]]> 2021-09-06 00:46:42 UTC https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1717961008 https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1718086519 I learnt that when you rub a balloon on your hair etc it gives the balloon extra electrons which creates a negative static charge, when an object has a negative charge it repels the electrons while attracting protons. 
This game uses cans and balloons to show the that negative charge of the balloon can move the can. This is a game you could play in a higher level primary class to create a deeper understanding of physics and energy. ]]> 2021-09-06 01:43:09 UTC https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1718086519 https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1718086660 I did this in primary school and loved it! I would create a map of the school and as a class navigate our way around on a little 'camping trip' so to speak. This would teach them geographical awareness and we would also investigate the natural world and how to care for it. ]]> 2021-09-06 01:43:13 UTC https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1718086660 https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1718675122 I learnt an infinitely better way of demonstrating the stored energy releasing from a chain reaction.

Used in class, students could be asked to describe Energy.
Energy can be described in many ways, simply it's movement. Following from that, students could discuss ways of storing energy. From batteries, springs etc.. but can paddle pop sticks store energy?

The chain reaction of stored energy of paddlepop sticks bent in-between others provide a fun way of demonstrating chain reactions and stored energy.]]> 2021-09-06 06:30:13 UTC https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1718675122 https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1718848452 While playing this online game, I learnt that heat makes the water lighter, and salt makes it heavier. The heat almost creates a current, and interacts with other ocean currents making it very hard to control the direction of the submarine. ]]> 2021-09-06 07:52:32 UTC https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1718848452 https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1719077084 This is an activity that i have done with kids before and it's great! Kids are so engaged and learn the basics of physical properties of the everyday things that surround them! The activity engages sensory reponses and provides opportunities for inquiry and individual choice. ]]> 2021-09-06 10:15:52 UTC https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1719077084 malcolmlindsay97 https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1734358645 I learned that nuclear fusion in the sun is created by combining protons and neutrons to convert hydrogen into helium which releases the energy that supports all life on earth]]> 2021-09-13 00:10:43 UTC https://padlet.com/lucybennett2021/9jevded69gh0a5pg/wish/1734358645
