Bumble Bees: Noodles & Ice

Reception have been busy exploring noodles, in particular the differences between dry and cooked noodles. This involved observations using our senses of smell ,touch, sight and of course taste.

This week we have also been doing some scientific exploration about ice… we investigated some ice cubes and thought about lots of scientific questions such as; what is ice made of?  what does melting mean? why do small ice cubes melt faster than larger ones?  We all got to hold some different shaped ice cubes – it was freeeeeeeezing but lots of fun and we used some really big science words too!
