How to get Pet Ready!

Before you even think about getting a pet you need to make sure you've got everything you need.

First you need to know what pet you’re getting!

Next you need to make sure that you have room for your pet in your house.

Then you need to make sure that you have the right food for your pets. After that you need to have toys for your pet.

Finally you get your pet, have fun with it and love it a lot.

SOLAR ECLIPSE at Plateau School- 13-11-12

Today from 10.15 until 10.45 we witnessed  the amazing eclipse of the moon over the sun.
We had special glasses which helped us see the crescent shape the moon made as it passed across the sun. We also saw the beautiful aurora that happened with it!

It was so amazing!!!

How can we show the water cycle?

We decided to make a terrarium to show the water cycle.
Here we planted a cauliflower seedling in soil inside a drink bottle which has been cut in half.
We then covered it with the top of the bottle, put it on our class window sill and wait!
What will happen?

Here's what happened :

TRANSPIRATION- water vapour rises from the seedling from the sun's heat

CONDENSATION-when the vapour hits the plastic bottle it turns into water droplets.

PRECIPITATION- when the water droplets become too heavy the fall onto the plant.

IT'S A WATER CYCLE!
