Science
In Year 5, we are learning all about gestation periods.
In groups, we predicted how long each mammal's gestation period is.
Victoria said, "I think the elephant has the longest gestation period as it is the biggest"
Nelly agreed with this prediction and said, "The mouse's gestation period must be really short as they are small."
After, we researched the gestation periods and found lots of our predictions were correct.

Chocolatyl
In Year 5 we explore The Maya and their legacy...this includes CHOCOLATE!
We began by trying out the traditional Mayan recipe for chocolatyl; a drink made from cacao. It was very bitter and had a bit of a spicy kick!
We simmered cocoa, and added cinnamon and chili; before using different pouring techniques to create a frothiness that was typical of the Mayan Chocolatyl.
We smelled the spices
We poured the chocolatyl from height to build the froth
We then taste tested and adapted the recipe to suit our modern tastebuds!
Science
We've been exploring forces like water resistance...
We created our own mini documentaries about water resistance to share our knowledge with others!

Music Tech
