This afternoon, Class 11 were the teachers for the adults that came to see the Presentation of Learning for the Spring Expedition. The Class took on the duty of sharing their knowledge, teaching the adults and explaining their learning about circuits, plants, digestion and Scratch food chains.

I was really impressed by the level of explanation from our mini-teachers and I’m sure adults will agree that they did a super job. The pressure was really on though for the Kahoot Quiz. The children’s teaching went towards the Quiz and was based on what they taught the adults.

I’m sure that adults will agree that Class 11 did a fantastic job of teaching and helped impart some knowledge. Check out below the teachers in action!

We appreciate you turning up to our Presentation of Learning and hope you had a great time! 😆

Class 11 have been looking into the dangers of tooth decay. We learned that too much sugary and starch foods can cause dental cavities, which means our teeth rot. But, if we eat these in moderation, have good oral hygiene and have regular check ups with the dentist, we’re able to protect our teeth much better against tooth decay!

Class 11 were both intrigued and horrified by the digestion experiment. This was where was see what happens after food enters the mouth (the first stage of digestion) and then goes down the oesophagus to the stomach. This Experiment shows how gastric acids in the stomach turn chewed food into the mushy liquid. It then gets taken by the small intestine to the make nutrients for the body. Any remaining waste exits the large intestine and the body…

Class 11 had the task of making their own finger prints using pencils and sello-tape. They then had to decide which finger print they had, such as a loop or a whirl.
