Observing science in real time helps embed learning in young children\u2019s minds. For example, watching an indicator stick (litmus paper) change to red to indicate a more acidic content, or to blue for more alkaline, or stay white to indicate a neutral result – is knowledge that is far more likely to be remembered than merely learning it from a book.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

From this experiment we get the metaphor \u201cLitmus test\u201d – an effective and definitive way of proving or measuring something. For example, you might find it used in politics to assess the value of a policy, or in conservation, to determine if the extinction of a species is related to the climate emergency.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n<\/header>\n

Using microscopes to look at the smallest objects always makes for a fun classroom activity. The children carefully put small amounts of fresh water onto microscope slides and using the lenses to fine tune the focus, they were able to identify mini invertebrates which they couldn\u2019t see with the naked eye.<\/p>\n

This experiment shows children that there is a hidden world out there – beneath their feet, in rivers and streams, and in the vegetation and trees. Biodiversity isn\u2019t always immediately visible and it\u2019s important not to forget that it exists even when we can\u2019t see it. Classifying creatures teaches children that labels matter – whether it\u2019s a common object like a book, or the name of a living creature like a worm or a snail or an insect.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As if that hard work wasn\u2019t enough, our children also learned how materials can change from one state to another – liquids, gases and solids. Using heat and dry ice they watched as water froze, melted and then evaporated. Observing changes at first hand enables children to make predictions about what will happen next.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Come next winter this week\u2019s science will be at the forefront of our primary children\u2019s minds when they observe how water turns to ice, how water vapour falling from the sky becomes snow, and why their warm breath is visible as it evaporates in the cold air.<\/p>\n

Many thanks to our Senior School science department and especially to super teacher Paul Minton for creating such fun and exciting lessons for our primary children.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
