Sugar in Food

Mrs Robb came to talk to us about being Label Detectives.





Mia learnt that Cocoa Pops has more than 15g (which is our recommended amount).

 Neerav found that cartoon characters on boxes of cereal means they will have more sugar in it.

Tanya found out that Powerade has the same amount of sugar as 12 chocolate chip cookies.

Water Cycle Bags


As the sun heats up the water it condenses, the condensation will turn to precipitation and rain back to the bottom.

I am Water

We watched this video, it got us thinking about water and how important it is.  We have had lots of interesting discussions about water and our bodies, Ashton told us that when water leaves our body it is called urine.  Isala worked out if 70% of the Earth is covered in water then 30% is land.

We are learning about water and the water cycle, this song is very catchy.
