Our young scientists engaged in a brilliant hands-on experiment to deeply understand the unique states of matter.
The students investigated specific melting and boiling points, discovering exactly why water acts so differently from many other substances. Through this practical session, they also explored complex concepts, such as how water expands when it solidifies and its remarkable ability to dissolve a wide range of materials.
From carefully reading thermometers to diligently timing the reactions and plotting their temperature data on graphs, our Year 5 learners demonstrated fantastic analytical and teamwork skills. A truly wonderful day of scientific discovery! ππ
