Science Week in Year 2

This week was National Science week and our Art Studio became a Science Lab.



In the science lab a number of experiments took place, some are outlined below. The children wrote hypotheses to explain what they believed the science was behind the experiment.   

Creating a storm: We observed the impact of detergent on milk.





Aluminum & Tin Can Races with Balloons: We observed how static electricity can pull an aluminum can and a tin can.  We also timed the the races and compared the times. 




Tricky Picture: We created an optical illusion by making a toy called a thaumatrope



The Year 2 Neighbourhood was lucky enough to have three scientists come and share some of their knowledge with us. Thank you Carlos, Sandra and Daniel!
