Today we took our uv measuring beads back outside. This time we were wanting to see what could make a difference when we are out in the sunshine. We decided to put some sun cream on our beads to see if anything would happen.

Mrs Brattle put the sun cream on the beads but it was very hard to keep it on because the beads got really slippery. The sun cream did make a difference to the colour of the beads, so we knew the sun cream was working. The colours were not as bright with the sun cream on, as the beads with none on.

Next we thought we would see what it was like under a hat. This was really hard to do because as soon as we moved the hat the uv rays got on the beads and made them change colour. We had to be really  quick to get this photo. 

We also wondered if Sunglasses would protect the beads from the uv Rays. You can see from our photo that they do!!

So, you can see that we have been very busy outside learning about being safe in the sun. Please remember to wear your hat everyday at School for the rest of this term. 

As a treat for being so great Mrs Brattle said we could have a picnic lunch. We got our lunch boxes and sat outside in the shade. Mrs Brattle read us stories while we ate our lunch, it was fun and we felt special.

After lunch we had whole School singing, then we packed up our class and went to visit Mrs Davidson in the library. We started making our reading journals for the school holidays!!
