Hi, My name is Bridget and I am teaching Early Start.
My favorite space fact is that there are more stars in the sky than grains of sand on all the beaches on earth.
For my inquiry base activity we could look at what material will soak up water best.
Trigger:Water spill on table or floor .
What can we use to clean up the spillage.
Look for suggestions of what will work best from a range of materials presented.
Will I use, newspaper, tinfoil, cling film, kitchen towel, toilet paper , tea-towel. ???
Predict which will be the most effective.
Conduct the investigation by using the various materials to try and wipe up the spill.
Out all the various materials used which worked best.
Record results by putting a smiley face on the material that worked best.
