In Science today, the Year 2 children carried out an exciting hands-on experiment to investigate whether different materials were absorbent or non-absorbent. The children made predictions, tested a range of materials and carefully observed what happened when water was added.
They discussed their results using scientific vocabulary and began to draw conclusions about which materials soak up liquid and which repel it. It was fantastic to see such curiosity, teamwork and enthusiasm as the children worked like real scientists and explained their thinking so clearly
