Welcome to Harold’s Cross Science Page 🙂
Junior Einsteins
Our Junior Einsteins Science Programme finished up in third class at the end of November. Twenty two pupils attended nine sessions over three months and focused on a range of topics which included –
Electricity: Plasma ball (lighting up the light sabre) and Van der Graff Generator (Electrocuting Barbie Doll)
Slime: Long chain polymerisation and non-Newtonian Fluids (with bring home slime for all children)
Somewhere over the Rainbow (where do Rainbows come from, Newton Spectrum)-brought home Rainbow Glasses
How fossils are made (Dinosaur or Monster?) ma-de their own Fossils
Density – why do some liquids not mix (they brought home Lava Lamp)
We hope the children enjoyed their sessions. They will have a further eight sessions in fourth class looking at another range of topics and expanding their science and engineering knowledge.
