Bubble Bubble Toil and Trouble

On Thursday we investigated the properties of bubbles and whether it was a liquid, solid or gas.

We experimented on the shape and size of the bubbles we blew.

There was also an opportunity as with our helicopters to trial them indoors as well as outdoors.

Unfortunately, we were unable to complete a fair testing trial or analyse results on a graph.



Oobleck is a classic science experiment that's perfect for understanding the structure of matter. ...Oobleck is a non-newtonian fluid. ... Oobleck gets its name from the Dr. Seuss book Bartholomew and the Oobleck where a gooey green substance, Oobleck, fell from the sky and wreaked havoc in ...Oobleck was made by all the Room 4 students today. Oobleck made a boring inquiry into an interesting experiment. Gooey and worthwhile.

Room 4 Accepts the Running Man Challenge

We took on the Challenge by putting our ideas together on Monday morning. Choreographing our moves on Monday followed by filming and editing on Monday. We are hoping to show our Running Man Challenge at assembly this Friday. Unfortunately Assembly was cancelled due to heavy rain at 1.45pm so the Running Man Challenge was postponed for Team Meeting on Tuesday 24th May. Unfortunately this was cancelled because 2 of our Team 2 Teachers were away sick. Therefore our Running Man Challenge had been deferred to Friday May 27th.

For those who missed the live recorded show at Assembly today here is our video.
