Bubble Fun
WALT / Practising to Count On and Count Back
Today we had a visit from the Science in a Van Roadshow.
We learnt about mixtures, separation and reactions. We also had some bubble fun.
We decided to see how many bubbles we could blow in ONE breath and then add them together and take them away - this way we could practise our addition and subtraction and basic facts.
Some of us had to blow a few times to make sure we got enough bubbles to count!
"We blew 25 bubbles the first time and then we blew 16 bubbles the second time. It was hard to count them all because there were so many and they floated so fast! When we worked out 25 plus 16 we 20 + 10 + 5 + 6 = 41. When we worked out 25 + 16 + 23 we started with 41 - 1 = 40 +20 = 60 + 4 = 64."
