Rang 3 & 4 were very busy during Science Week learning about famous scientists and their life changing inventions & discoveries. We also read about some Irish scientists, including Francis Beaufort and Robert Boyle. On Friday, we became scientists ourselves & experimented with common kitchen ingredients: firstly we looked at the effect of washing-up liquid on milk, and secondly, we used food colouring to study colour mixing. Finally, we made our own slime using cornflour, which was definitely the most fun experiment of the day.
