Story time from Space
Today we listened to a story read by Astronaut Kristina Koch and recorded while she was on the International Space Station!
On Youtube you can find lots more stories read by astronauts on the International Space Station.
Most books are in English but they also have astronauts reading books in their native languages. These include Spanish, Arabic and Japanese.

Website: simple science experiments
This site has lots of easy science experiments, many of which can be done at home with ordinary household items.
Lots of fun videos too!
Snow paint
You can paint with a brush, a spoon, your hand, or whatever you like! Put it on quite thick and it will puff up and reveal the glitter as it dries!
ICE – Ravines and tunnels
As the ice melts, try pressing a piece of plain paper on top of it. You can do this a number of times and get some lovely patterns!

Ice cream 🍦
We had so much fun making ice-cream in class today! 🍨
Everybody (except one – and he didn’t have salt) had great success!
Judging by all the eating going on, I think the ice cream tasted good, but, I did see at least one person get brain freeze!
Congratulations everybody!
Here’s how to make the ice cream and the snowflakes.
