This term in Science our learning has focused on forms of energy, including light, heat and sound. We spent some extra time exploring shadows and natural light outdoors. Here's a glimpse at some of the hands on learning that was captured.

The 'light table' was a very popular place for a couple of weeks. All things shiny and reflective were gathered for play and inspiration. Flashlights and kaleidoscopes created magic. Gems stones, metallics and mirrors reflected light.
We constructed a shadow puppet box to experiment with hand puppets. It was fun making animals with our hands and letting friends guess. The kids enjoyed using the coloured blocks inside as well.
