Thursday's lesson


Fitness


Ok I have 2 workouts that are full on but I know you can do it :)




Now that you are all warmed up let's get into some learning.


Maths

Here are some basic facts. They are the same ones we have been working on this week.



Egg Check in

Here is a video of Harvey bouncing the egg.

Look how high he can get it.


Here is the experiment if you would like to try it.

RUBBER EGG EXPERIMENT

YOU WILL NEED:

  • Raw Eggs
  • Household Vinegar
  • Jar/Vase

SET UP:

STEP 1:  Place an egg in the jar and cover with vinegar. You can color the vinegar for rainbow-colored rubber eggs too!

STEP 2:  Wait and watch!

Notice the bubbles on the eggshell! This is the acid in the vinegar reacting with the calcium carbonate in the shell. This reaction is producing a gas called carbon dioxide!

STEP 3:  After 48 hours, remove the egg and rinse it off. Ours had a layer of brown scum that was easily washed away!  The hard outer shell is gone and the egg white and yolk are surrounded by a thin membrane.

 

 

EGG IN VINEGAR RESULTS

Now for the fun part, bouncing the egg. 

Start off low and then see how high you can drop/bounce it.

Story


Here is a story about Pete the cat going camping



Here is an idea, why not camp in your living room!!! 

First you need to clear a space in your living room where you could put a tent up or use some chairs and put a blanket over the top.

Make sure you have lots of pillows and blankets to sit on. If you have sleeping bags you could use them too.

Make sure you have your favourite toys join you and some great books to read.

Here are some ideas;





Here is a fort my boys made the other day.
