We have had a great week with lots of scientists in the setting. The children have observed the ice outside and have found different ways to help it melt. We put some containers in the freezer containing animals, we discussed different ways of getting the animals out of the ice. The children's suggestions were excellent and they decided that we could put them in the sun outside to see what happened. We left some in the unit and we put some in warm water. We then discussed which had melted the quickest.

On Thursday Mrs Howe launched a rocket outside which I have included in this weeks photographs.

Our new children have settled well this week and they have been supported in many ways by our existing children. They have been very caring and have shown the new children what we do and how we play and learn.

Next week we are going to be looking at the story of the 'Three Billy Goats Gruff'', which is one of my favourites.

I hope you have a great weekend.

Mrs Robinson:)
