-making towers using marshmallows and pasta
-Building bridges
-Designing a marble maze
-making pet butterflies and birds
-Building the highest tower using newspaper
-All the different experiments
- The black light activity.  It was cool
-Making water filters

We really liked having a turn at lots of different activities and working with different children and teachers

Let's have another Science day soon...

Things we would like to do differently
-Activities were a little rushed.  More time for each rotation
-Have a turn at all the activities
- Do Science across whole school in the afternoons - one day a week
-All have a turn across the school e.g. in the Year 5/6 area
-Students to come up with some of the activities

-making a greenhouse
-making a bridge - Challenging
-fun activities
- learning about new things
-thinking about ideas to make taller structures
-learning about engineers without borders and water filters... good to see all the different countries' technologies. 
- making the balancing bird - learning about gravity
-making origami because it was my first time, it was fun... it was good maths - we used fractions
-Boats - it was really fun working with new people and learning new skills.
- engineering - it was fun and creative. 
- I just had lots of FUN
- I enjoyed trying fix things. 

Things I would do differently:
-I'd like to do ALL of the activities because I missed some. 
- Have the whole week of SCIENCE and STEAM.
- Try harder and focus more
-modify and think about my design

I enjoyed making oragami. 
I enjoyed designing a robot.
I enjoyed making a tower out of spaghetti and marshmallow. 
I love doing the robot with Anthony.
I enjoyed making a bridge out of paper.
I learned how gravity is cool.
I learnedto about black light. It was challenging to make a bridege out of paper.
Gravity is awesome.
I found it really challenging to make the spaghetti and marshmallow.  Maybe  try different materials.
I succeeded by trying different strategies, persevering. and design.
I found it challenging finding my line at the start of  the day.
It was confusing to find where we should go.

- I enjoyed making crystals because it was fun
- I loved doing the gravity because it hurt your arm and I learnt about gravity
- I liked making the marble run 
- I loved everything!
- My favourite was making a water filter
- It was really fun having the big kids with us
- I thought it was hard being with 5/6s if they didn't let me help (in a group activity) 
- I loved it! ]]> 2018-08-13 05:21:44 UTC https://padlet.com/kim116/s4qbf7ofm5i6/wish/272812605 pam35 https://padlet.com/kim116/s4qbf7ofm5i6/wish/272812994 What did you really enjoy?
making the green house
gravity writing
texta colours
making the boats
making crystals
pyramid building
designing and building the towers
marble  maze track
marshmallow challenge
optical illusions spinning colours & pictures
making a water filter
making balancing butterflies & birds
working with all the different grades and different teachers
meeting new teachers
moving around to different classrooms
It was fun!

Things we found interesting:
using all sorts of things to build or make
using maths to work out how many cups to use for the base
using maths to measure the height of the tower
it was challenging to make the pyramids and the towers
learning about how we use maths in real life problems
measuring the towers - the tallest was 120cm that's more than a metre!
learning how we can solve problems
you need to design and plan before you build
there are really tall buildings in the world
some artists draw upside down - they lie on their backs

Something that surprised me:
I was ok about working with different people and different teachers
I am good at designing and building and it was balanced
I can design a boat and I tried different ways to make it
what it looks like inside the other buildings

Questions I have:
When can we do this again?
Can we do the other activities that we didn't do today?
How can I find out more information about pyramids?
How do you find and make gold?
If you swallow seeds will they grow inside you?
How can I beat the record 120cm tall tower?
Will the crystals grow?
Where does water come from?
Can we make a real pyramid in the yard?

Things we would like to do differently:
I came to school late and I couldn't find my group straight away
Can we all have a turn at doing the things we didn't get to do today
