We completed some experiments in Miss Costello's 2nd class this week.

1.We learned that warm air is lighter than cold air and therefore warm air rises and cold air comes in to take its place. This causes air currents. We made Snake Spirals and placed them above the radiators in our class. The air above the radiator is warm and rises and makes the snake spin. Come into our class for a look if you like.

2. We completed some experiments to learn more about ‘Myself’ – we took our fingerprints, checked which eye is our dominant eye and we found out about the blind spot.
We know everybody’s fingerprints are different.
We know everyone has a dominant eye and the brain can get confused as to where an object is or it may see double.

3. The Armagh Planetarium came to visit our school on the 20th of November.
We learned a lot about electricity and the planets.
Here is a space chart that the senior infants (Room 5) made.
