The children had the opportunity to collect bugs from the school
grounds. They then had to identify and sketch them. Of course all bugs were
returned. We also used microscopes lent
from Bitterne Park to view the organisms in our pond water.
The highlight had to be the rocket making. The children
designed their group’s rocket and then Bitterne Park students helped with the
launch. Through experimenting with different amounts of water and size
bottles, Butterflies concluded it would
go a lot higher if they put less water in and used a smaller bottle! The final
rocket launch went very high!!!
