Writing time

Today we had a very interesting writing lesson. Miss Black had got a present from her Grandma and they were little capsules. But what was inside?
Here is what we did:

First we felt the capsule we thought they were very hard.











Next Leandro put the capsule into Miss Macartney's lunchbox which was full of water!


 





















It didn't work! So we read the instructions and they said it had to be in warm or hot water so we boiled the jug and Eilidh tried again.











This time it worked! The capsule turned into a blue sponge! We were very excited.












Now some of us were lucky and got to put some more capsule in. The same thing happened! They turned into more sponges!















Then we got to touch them once they cooled down. We thought of words like sticky, slimy, spongy, wet, hot and cold.














Finally we got to writing our stories. It took us ALL afternoon but they are great! Come in and read them!
